Santubong River

River Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia

What to expect

The Santubong River is a river in Sarawak, Malaysia, that flows from the Sarawak River north to the coastal city of Santubong, where it empties into the South China Sea. The river is home to a variety of wildlife, including Irrawaddy dolphins, proboscis monkeys, crocodiles, and fireflies. Visitors can take a cruise along the river to spot these animals in their natural habitat. The cruise takes you through the mangrove-lined rivers and estuaries, where you can see the wildlife, including monkeys and birds, and enjoy the beautiful scenery. As night falls, the cruise continues to search for fireflies and crocodiles, making it a unique and exciting experience for families and nature lovers
