Travelers can still visit designated islands and areas under the guidance of local rangers, adhering to established park rules for protection of the unique ecosystem.
Recent tourism policy adjustments around Komodo Island primarily aim to strengthen conservation efforts for the Komodo dragons and their fragile ecosystem.
