Evening Mangrove Wildlife Cruise
The journey begins with a 30 to 40 minutes scenic drive to Santubong jetty. Once you arrive, you’ll hop on a boat for a 25-minute ride along the stunning mangrove coastline near the mouth of the Santubong and Salak Rivers. As you navigate through the narrow passages of the riverine mangrove forest, keep an eye out for the unique Proboscis Monkeys. Borneo is the only place in the world where you can encounter these rare primate species. Proboscis monkeys live in the coastal mangrove forests and the riverine forest along the lower stretches of major rivers. Once spotted, take your time to observe these fascinating creatures in their natural habitat, allowing you to appreciate their fascinating behaviors and interactions.
As dusk approaches, we’ll depart from the mangrove forest to witness a stunning sunset before re-entering the mangroves once more in darkness. This leisurely boat ride will provide a rare opportunity to spot the elusive wild crocodiles that inhabit the river. Use torchlights to catch glimpses of their reflective eyes. Experience the enchanting sounds of the mangroves at night while you search for fireflies. Fireflies are soft-bodied beetles measuring between 5 and 25 millimeters, possess unique light organs in their abdomens that emit luminous flashes. Found among the trees of the riverine mangrove forest, fireflies illuminate their surroundings, creating a magical atmosphere similar to a Christmas tree. After the tour, return to hotel.
