Introduction

KAWA Mangrove Forest is considered one of the three major mangrove forest attractions in Kota Kinabalu. The site is known for its sunset views over the mudflats. Visitors can choose to join a day tour, visit the mangrove forest, enjoy the sunset, spot proboscis monkeys, and experience the beauty of fireflies at night. Compared to the Klias Mangrove Forest and Weston Mangrove Forest, KAWA Mangrove Forest has been developed relatively later, but the natural environment has been conserved, and there is a relatively higher number of fireflies.
