Komodo National Park is the home or visited by many large pelagic fish, but what does Pelagic fish means?
Pelagic fish live in the open sea quite far from shores. Those species are living and feeding away from the bottom of the ocean. They differ from demersal & benthic species that live on or near the bottom or reef.
Some of the pelagic fish species spotted in Komodo include Manta Rays in Manta Alley, south of Komodo Island, Eagle rays, Grey Reef Sharks, schools of Snapper, around the pinnacles of Gili Lawa Laut, and of course you can also see giant trevallies, barracudas, dogtooth tuna and sharks, such as blacktip, whitetip sharks and even hammerheads, 18 species of cetaceans, whale sharks, dugongs, and much more.
Komodo is the only equatorial region on the planet where two oceans, the Pacific and the Indian, meet and exchange marine life, generating strong tidal flow running North and South through the park bringing much-needed nutrients. These currents help dispersing plankton between the two oceans and many planktons settle in the Komodo Area and thereby causing a very high-biodiversity of corals, reef fish, invertebrates, and pelagic. This Oceanic hub attracts bigger marine life and mammals, some of which also use the channels as natural migratory highways.
Besides the great pelagic fish you can find in Komodo National Park, you will also dive in the crystal blue waters, with pristine colorful coral reefs, and many, many other fishes. Komodo Island’s ecosystem has everything that a diver would dream of, therefore there is no surprise the fact that Komodo National Park is renowned for its world-famous dive sites, becoming a prime diving destination.
