Great for the family and those who want a closer look at this precious shore that was nearly lost to reclamation. FREE, no registration required, just come to Chek Jawa!

Close encounters with wild life, if we show respect. 

Spot monkeys to wild boar, birds to butterflies, crabs to mudskippers, and fascinating plants of the mangroves and shores, some of which are rare elsewhere. If we are lucky we may encounter otters or even a dugong.
