Sun Downer Mangrove Cruise is a sunset cruise offered by Dev's Adventure Tours at the the Kilim Geoforest Park in Langkawi, Kedah.

The cruise starts at 4pm, a perfect time to kickstart when everybody else is calling it a day. With diminished river traffic and dwindling crowd, you practically have the Kilim mangrove forest all to yourself (well, almost.. !)

The Sun Downer Mangrove Cruise takes guests on a leisurely cruise along the mangrove shoreline, drifting into the lesser and smaller channels with are totally undisturbed; this is a totally un-rushed ride. The boat traverses underneath the mangrove canopy; with soft commentaries and fun facts by our naturalist as guests casually glide along the undisturbed waters in the inner mangrove channels.

While enjoying the cruise, guests should keep a look-out for various wildlife as they emerge to catch the last setting sun of the day. The late afternoon sun throws a mirror image of the surrounding to create a nice backdrop for great photo opportunities.

The magnificent eagles will still be circling and ready to roost when we depart from Eagle Point.

The Sun Downer Mangrove Cruise takes guests to the terrace of the floating restaurant to enjoy a sun downer meal of specifically selected local fares including barbecued fish fillet, satay, Thai-style salad, stir-fried noodles with vegetables accompanied by tropical fruit platter and chilled drinks to end the day.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
