What to expect
Begin your adventure with a pick-up from your hotel lobby within Desaru Coast. Sit back and enjoy a scenic 15-minute drive to Lebam River. Upon arrival, board a local boat that will transport you and your kayaks further upstream. Before long, you’ll reach the upper stretches of the Lebam River, where your kayaking journey begins. Glide through calm waters, surrounded by a lush mangrove forest teeming with wildlife. Keep your eyes peeled for wild ducks, herons, kingfishers — and if you’re lucky, you might even spot playful otters along the way. After around 90 minutes of paddling, you’ll meet up with the safety boat for a relaxing cruise back to Kuala Sungai Lebam. We end the tour with a transfer back to your hotel, carrying with you the memories of Desaru’s hidden natural treasures.
