Flores Sea

: The airport in Labuan Bajo, once a ramshackle frontier town on Flores' west coast, serves as the closest landing strip for Komodo -- and has even been renamed Komodo Airport, according to CNN. Most travelers fly in from Bali, spend a night in town, then hop on a boat trip over to the famous isle. Fifty kilometers east of Komodo, the western shore of Flores has become a springboard for the dragon hunters. At best, they'll do a quick detour to the technicolor coral reefs of the Flores Sea. From waterfalls straight out of paradise, to an island full of flying foxes, to stylish new eco resorts and a surprisingly sophisticated dining scene -- there much more to see in western Flores than Komodo dragons. But those who rush off are doing themselves a disservice. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
