Half Day Mangrove River Cruise
Get up close with nature as we explore the protected green mangrove forests, isolated white beaches and blue lagoons of the Kilim Nature Park. After meeting your guide at the hotel lobby, transfer to the jetty and hop on a boat to cruise into the wetlands of the Kilim Nature Park through the luscious and exotic mangrove forests, enhanced by rugged limestone cliffs emerging from the floor of the mangrove swamps and the sea. Our cruise takes us to Bat Cave where we can see hundreds of bats hanging silently on the roof.
Next, we visit Crocodile Cave, a natural limestone cave named for its shape, which resembles a crocodile’s open mouth when viewed from the exit. While there are old stories suggesting crocodiles once lived here, none are found in the area today. The cave is only accessible during low tide and connects different parts of the river system. You may also see Shoes Island, located off the northern coast of Langkawi. This island is known for its distinctive shape, which looks like a giant shoe. Enjoy your lunch at local restaurant. After lunch, return transfer to your hotel.
