Ujung Kulon National Park is a national park at the westernmost tip of Java, located in Sumur District of Pandeglang Regency, part of Banten province in Indonesia. It once included the volcanic island group of Krakatoa in Lampung province,[2][3] although current maps has suggested the Krakatoa island group as its own protected area, the Pulau Anak Krakatau Marine Nature Reserve.[4]

The area has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for "containing the largest remaining area of lowland rainforests in Java", and also for possessing the most threatened species of rhino, the Javan rhino.[5] It was designated before its formation as a national park.

The park fully encompasses the Ujung Kulon peninsula, along with surrounding islands and the Gunung Honje mountain range.

Ujung Kulon itself means Western End or Point West in Sundanese/Bantenese.
