Rincah, also known as Rinca, is a small island near Komodo island, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The island is famous for komodo dragons, giant lizards that can measure up to three meters (ten feet) long. Rincah is also populated with many other species such as wild pigs, buffalos and many birds. The island can be reached with a small boat from Labuhan Bajo on the west coast of Flores. Being the lesser known island (and less visited) than Komodo it is an ideal place to see the Komodo Dragon in its natural environment with fewer people to disturb them. It is easy to arrange a day trip from Labuanbajo (on mainland Flores) by small boat. Make sure to check into the park HQ. The island's area is 198 km2.[1]
