This
cruise criss-crosses the mouth of the Santubong River in search
of the rare Irrawaddy Dolphin. The Irrawaddy, or snubfin dolphin,
inhabits rivers, estuaries and shallow coastal areas. The Santubong
area is one of the best places in Sarawak to view this unusual
looking marine mammal. The dolphins are often seen swimming and
diving around small fishing boats in the estuary. Occasionally
they are seen playing in the open water. Visitors will need a
keen eye to spot the dolphins at first, but after a short wait
they can often be seen surfacing all around the boat. |
