Maika Komodo Tour
Gili Lawa Darat"Gili Lawa Darat was a beautiful small uninhabited island that was one of the highlights of our Komodo National Park Tour. I enjoyed the hiking and views just as much as Padar Island.” - Kate (UK) |

Gili Lawa Darat 
One of the most beautiful Islands in Komodo National Park is Gili Lawa. Many have heard of islands such as Siaba Island, Komodo Island, Takka Makassar, and others, but a small island to the North that takes visitors by the heart strings is Gili Lawa Darat. The name of the island means “Island Close to the Land” in the local language. Many people actually consider Gili Lawa to be the main entrance to Komodo National Park. The Natural beauty, great hiking, and stunning views make it a very popular part of the park. Here you can hike, snorkel, relax, and even get extremely close to the deer that are on the island. The location of Gili Lawa is next to Lawa Laut. In-between those two island is an channel known by scuba divers as “The Cauldron.” The area in the middle is known for its strong currents, which many divers love to dive. At Maika Komodo Tours we offer many options for our guests while taking a Komodo Island tour or Tour package.

Gili Lawa has a gorgeous geography of landscape. It offers beautiful rolling hills covered by grass for hiking, with fantastic views from the top. This island is what most would consider a dry Savannah with panoramic views. Many visitors say this views are almost or equally as good as what you get from the top of Padar Island. The best part about visit Gili Lawa is there is usually much less tourists that on Padar Island. Many visitors ask if there are Komodo Dragons on the island of Gili Lawa. Even though it is relatively close to Komodo Island, there are no Komodo Dragons on Gili Lawa. Another fun thing to do, that many companies forget to mention, is seeing all the deer and even sometimes getting close enough to pet on of them. There are many deer on the island and they usually stay close to the beach and are not very afraid of humans. Adding Gili lawa to your Komodo National Park tour is highly recommended!
If you are looking at adding Gili Lawa to your itinerary, we highly recommend it. We can book Komodo National Park tours from 1 day all the way to 4 day tours. Adding this beautiful Island fits perfectly to see a better view of the North part of the National Park. We can spend the first day visiting places such as Padar Island and Menjerite, or Komodo Island or Rinca Island. On the Second day, possibly visit Kalong, or Manta Point for some incredible snorkelling with giant Manta rays. On the third day would be great to add Gili Lawa and also Taka Makassar to your trip itinerary. Taka Makassar is a beautiful beach island and the perfect place to get those exotic island photos of white sand and crystal clear waters. If you contact us, we can put together the perfect Komodo Trip for you and our crew always goes out of their way to make sure each member of your group has a great time while taking any one of our tours.
