Pick up at 0830hrs, drive from Kuching for about 45 mins in the direction of Damai beach. Board a small boat and start your cruise at the mouth of the Santubong & Salak Rivers. There is a chance to spot the elusive and rare Irrawaddy dolphin, which is quite common in this area. Sightings are, however, not guaranteed. Head out to the South China Sea for Satang Island. This island is part of the Talang-Satang National Park and is a turtle nesting ground. Green Turtles and the rare Hawksbill Turtles lay their eggs on Satang Island. See the turtle hatchery and get an idea of conservation work being done to help these highly endangered sea creatures. Spend time on the island’s white sandy beach or go snorkelling. In the shallow waters off the island, enjoy the corals and the marine life. A packed lunch and refreshments will be provided. Retrace your journey in the mid afternoon. En route you will have a chance to spot birds at Tukong Ara Island, a protected islet that is a breeding colony for various species of terns. Return transfer to your hotel.

Since you may be exposed to the hot tropical sun we strongly recommend that you bring along a cap, sun shades and sun block. Insect repellent is also recommended.

Includes Pick up and drop off at hotel, tour as stated above, packed lunch, guiding on tour with English speaking guide.
