In contrast to Komodo Island and Rinca Island, which are still inhabited by Komodo dragons, the management of Komodo National Park claims that there are no signs of life of these ancient animals on Padar Island. This means that Komodo dragons on Padar Island are completely extinct.

The extinction of Komodo dragons on Padar Island is certainly not encouraging news considering that the three main islands in the Komodo National Park area are the only natural habitat of the giant lizard.

However, the pain feels a little relieved. Now, Padar Island is the safest area to visit alone compared to the other two islands. Moreover, this island has extraordinary natural scenery to explore.

What did you explore when visiting Padar Island? The following is a summary of Padar Island which discusses attractions, routes, tickets and other interesting information.
