Other islands

In addition to Komodo, Rinca and Padar there are another 26 islands in the Komodo national park. Only a few are inhabited, mainly by local fishermen as the islands are quite dry and not suitable for agriculture. Tourist boats from Labuan Bajo bring tourists every day to the Komodo and Rinca islands and to diving spots in the Komodo national park. The stingray point is an area where it is easy even for snorkellers to see stingrays.
