What to expect

Head out for an exciting guided cruise through the meandering passages of the Kubang Badak River! Meet your local guide at the Kubang Badak Jetty for a brief orientation before hopping on a boat to start your adventure along the coastal river. Unique species of flora and fauna, which have adapted to the ever changing environment in the mangrove forest, are truly beautiful sights to behold. If you're lucky, you'll get to see some exotic animals such as the white-bellied sea eagles, brahminy kites, kingfishers, herons, mudskippers, fiddler crabs and monitor lizards, and otters. After about 90 minutes of exploration, you'll get to savor a delightful lunch at a home of a local villager. You will then be driven to a nearby jungle trail that leads to a quiet pool, where you can take a refreshing dip before concluding your adventure.
