Sailing Nandji Ep 108 – The Land of Dragons: Komodo Island

Sailing Nandji Ep 108: with over 1600nm to sail west to reach Malaysia and our new motor, we can not waste time hanging around.

It is a massive challenge we have set ourselves to sail this far in the changing of the seasons. Breaking the trip into smaller passages, we leave our overnight anchorage at Savu island and sail 150nm back in time the islands of Komodo, famous for the largest lizards in the world, the Komodo Dragons.

These beasts are quite the sight as they let us know who is boss! We head out diving the pristine waters around the anchorage and are amazed at the vibrant sea life under the water. We had a great stop off at this amazing anchorage, but with many more miles to sail, it is back to sea we go with the remaining trade wind!
