At Bako Village, board one of the local motor-boats for a twenty-minute ride to Bako National Park. Bako National Park is situated on a peninsula, and despite being the smallest national park in Malaysia, it offers a large variety of different vegetation. Bako is also the best place in Sarawak to spot wildlife, however as wildlife is free to roam around freely, sightings are not guaranteed. Look out for Proboscis Monkeys, a species of Monkey endemic to Borneo, long-tailed Macaques, Silver-leaf Monkeys, Monitor Lizards, Bearded Pigs, and many bird species. Rainforests and mangroves give way to Kerangas (heath forest), swamps, cliffs, and beach vegetation. Follow one of the nature trails, depending on your fitness and interest. You will see species of carnivorous pitcher plants. Return to Kuching in the late afternoon. We advise that you dress casually in loose and light clothing and proper trekking boots. You might also want to bring along a swimsuit with a towel and flip-flops, a pair of binoculars, insect repellent, a torchlight, and a raincoat.
