Sea Turtle in Indonesia

Looking for the sea turtle in Indonesia? Start with Komodo National Park, where access and habitat make a sighting more likely than a chance roadside glimpse.

Komodo National Park in East Nusa Tenggara is the place to begin. The only place on Earth to see wild Komodo dragons, patrolling savanna hillsides between pink-sand beaches and manta-filled reefs. Give yourself quiet time at dawn or dusk and keep your distance.

Indonesia context: Seventeen thousand islands, two biogeographic realms, and more endemic species than almost anywhere on Earth.

In Indonesia, look especially around seagrass meadows, coral reefs, tropical beaches, and open ocean. Those settings usually put you closest to where this species is active.
