On the far west coast of Flores. A miserable place, dirty, no good food, and there could be difficulties getting it together for the Komodo Island trip. stay and eat: The townspeople will offer to put you up for a modest price. The only losmen in the whole village is Losmen Mekar for Rp750 a bed run by Leo, a ship's captain. Leo will try to get Rp900, but just point at the sign. Not very appetizing meals consisting of only rice and dried fish are served. though in the wet season there's fresh fish. Go down to the market each morning and buy coconuts, Rp50 each; sometimes bananas, Rp100 a bunch, and sometimes papayas. If not, look for other food in the countryside up in the mountains.from Labuhanbajo: There are boats to Sape (Sumbawa) once a week, Rp4000. Walk to Ruteng in 6 days from Labuhanbajo. In the dry season, it's quite easy to get boats from Labuhanbajo to Reo (or it takes 4 or 5 days to very pleasantly walk it). Or charter a boat for Rp15,000-20,000. There are also boats from Labuhanbajo to Waingapu (Sumba) for Rp3000. vicinity of Labuhanbajo: If you're going to be stuck in Labuhanbajo for several weeks rent a small sailboat for Rp500 a day and go out to an inhabited island (buy a mosquito net first); many nice islands to explore around this port. There's a petrified prehistoric forest 5 km south of Labuhanbajo, acre upon acre of trunks lying in tangled broken heaps. Komodo dragons are found anywhere in the eastern end of Flores (also anabas, a land-creeping fish); just go out in the forest and wait. However, to the west across a channel only a few km wide are 3 islands, Komodo, Rinca, Padar, where the giant lizards live in much larger concentrations.
