Liang Bay or Loho Liang is about one hour's punting from Komodo village. Pitch a tent on this semi-circular little bay, a pristine area of white sulpher-creasted cockatoos, jungle fowls, bush turkeys, wi/i will birds, bellowing Timor deer, snorting boars crashing through the grass. Orchids grow in clumps at the tops of high trees and hills of /ontar palms and shady trees rise up behind the beach. Don't swim because the water could have sharks, and sea snakes which can kill as quickly as a green viper or cobra. Other isolated bays in the northern part of the island are Loho Boko and Loho Buaya (Crocodile Bay). Ferocious and rare species of seawater crocodiles 10 m long still turn up in bays and deserted beaches such as these, throughout the archipelago. Gunung Arab: With clouds enveloping its top and evil spirits lurking, this mountain is covered in bamboo woods, monkeys, wild buffalo. Once a handful of Arabs tried to live on Komodo and there are relics of their settlement on this mountain; the wild buffalo found on this island are descended from the Arabs' cattle. Climb up through the well-trampled tracks of wild pigs and deer to the top. High alang-slang grass hides rubble and blocks of lava, so avoid it. Marvelous landscapes can be seen from the summit with chains of valleys in the distance. Bring binoculars. Loho Shrikaya: A bay on the northern side of the island with rocky lava cliffs and a thick wood. Buaya darat are much larger here than those found on the Komodo village side of the island. Though a land reptile, the dragon is also a good swimmer. (How else could he have gotten here?) Lizards stride on Loho Shrikaya's beach and swim like sea monsters, sometimes staying submerged up to 5 minutes.
