Klias river cruise and fireflies.

Catch the Probocis monkeys in action in the wild. Also may get to see other animals and birds. The river is calm and life jackets are provided. After watching the monkeys then back to cruise center to have dinner. After dinner will head out to the river again to see fireflies. It’s like watch Christmas tree lighting. They will fly to the boat as well. I enjoyed the tour very much.

Klias Forest Reserve

The Klias Wetland Cruise is located in the Beaufort district about 125 km southwest of Kota Kinabalu. It takes about 90 minutes by car from Kota Kinabalu to Kurias. This local attraction is a vast coastal wetland of 130,000 hectares. It serves as a floodplain for the Padas River and has a network of rivers. As part of the Klias Forest Reserve, much of the mangrove and peat swamp forest is protected. Habitats include near-coastal mangroves and further inland riverine and wetland forests. The Klias Wetland is home to a sizeable population of proboscis monkeys. Other wildlife includes estuary crocodiles, otters, cercopithecus, monitor lizards, proboscis monkeys, and various birds including hornbills. Klias is usually visited as a day trip from Kota Kinabalu. This tour includes a river cruise to see wildlife in the wetlands. The highlight of these cruises is seeing groups of proboscis monkeys congregating on the riverbanks in the evening. About 800 proboscis monkeys live in the wetland rivers and streams as it have a high density in Klias and you can see many herds on boat trips. #staycation #awesomepic
