LEBAM RIVER CRUISE
This River Cruise is suitable for families with Young Children. From Desaru Coast, we drive to Sungai Lebam River and hop on to the explorer boat. This is a wide river surrounded by a very rich and lush mangrove forest. The drive passes through secondary forests and areas cleared for Agriculture and Palm Oil.
Birds can be spotted especially the Black-Shoulder Kites, Herons, and Pacific Swallows. The arrival at the jetty shows a view of a small fishing settlement and a floating restaurant.
As the boat gently meanders along the river your guide will unravel the many interesting secrets of this unique ecosystem. These bizarre-looking trees have adapted to live in this dynamic and constantly changing environment dictated by the ebb and flow of ocean tides.
After the mangrove boat tour, we will make a stop at the famous Desaru Fruit Farm Shop for a chance to purchase local freshly harvested fruits before returning to the hotel.
