DESCRIPTION
At low tide, Desaru Coast reveals a hidden world teeming with life as the sea recedes to uncover secretive creatures in the sand and shallow waters. During this guided coastal walk, you will witness intricate sand patterns created by sand bubbler crabs and moon snails, offering a rare glimpse into the delicate rhythms of intertidal life. As the tide drops further, rocky outcrops unveil tidal pools filled with remarkable marine life, including limpets, barnacles, sea anemones, and brittle stars, each uniquely adapted to survive between land and sea.
Join our experienced naturalists on this educational walk to uncover the rich biodiversity of the coastline and meet the many secret creatures that call Desaru Coast home. Along the way, you may also spot migratory shorebirds such as terns and plovers, alongside resident species like the Collared Kingfisher and White-bellied Sea Eagle. No visit to Desaru is complete without experiencing these wonders, making it a fun and insightful journey for those curious about the diverse wildlife inhabiting the shoreline.
