Due to this, the park has been declared as World Heritage Site by UNESCO. For visiting the park, a ship excursion or an authorized tour operator is required. The tour guide or a forest ranger guides you through the entire trail. Since the dragons are quite poisonous, certain distance is advised to be kept if you spot one during the trail.
