2012 Sept – Buntal, Sarawak

beside Bako National Park, we also visit this beautiful mangrove for mangrove , crocodile, dolphin ….

arrive to Buntal village (from Kuching ~45minutes) it should have boat arrangement but prefer to be there earlier as best time for Dolphin ~19am-12pm but also depend on the tide

so excited for the 1st time so close to the wild crocodile .. (~2-4meter away)
