Kilim Karst Geoforest Park mangrove tour, Langkawi

A boat trip through the mangroves and limestone cliffs of the Kilim Karst Geoforest Park, in the north-east of Langkawi, part of a UNESCO Global Geopark. Boats wind through the mangrove channels and out to the open sea, visiting a bat cave, a fish farm and eagle-feeding spots, where brahminy kites and sea eagles swoop down.

Kayak tours are a quieter, more eco-friendly way to explore, and many visitors prefer not to stop at the eagle-feeding spots, which harms the birds' natural behaviour. Boats leave from the Kilim jetty.
