About Sungai Lebam Mangrove Cruise
The Lebam River winds through mangrove forest a short drive inland from the Desaru Coast resorts. JungleWalla, the nature-tour operator featured by Desaru Coast, runs a 3-hour cruise with a naturalist guide past a small fishing settlement and a floating restaurant, ending with a stop at the Desaru Fruit Farm shop. Desaru Coast lists black-shouldered kites, herons and Pacific swallows among the birds to look for.
Published prices are RM220 per person for the day cruise (minimum 4, maximum 12) and RM1,000 per small boat, for up to 8 people, on the private after-dark firefly cruise. Both include free pick-up from hotels in the Desaru area, and a kayaking trip on the same river is also offered. Book online in advance; if a trip has to be postponed, the operator offers another date or a full refund.
