What You Will Do
Experience a close-up view of the heavily silted mangrove swamp, a haven for its inhabitants of reptilians to crustaceans and fishes such as crocodiles, water monitor lizards, otters, mud skippers, mangrove crabs, prawns, edible jellyfish, shell fish, monkeys and more.
The swamp sustains many different species of trees, the most important being the black and red mangroves. It is used as piling in constructions and is also processed as charcoal.
The Irrawaddy or snubfin dophin, inhabits the rivers, estuaries and shallow coastal areas. The Santubong area remains one of the best places in Sarawak to view this unusual looking marine mammal. When seen, they swim and dive around open waters less than 30 meters deep.
You will need a keen eye to spot the dolphins and they are best seen when they frolic near local fishing boats that are hauling in the catch!
