At the end of the broadwalk is the six-storey high tower which is 30m tall.

At level 6, you will have an excellent bird’s eye view of the island. The treetops and the neighboring islands seems so quiet and peaceful.

This is a good place for bird watching. Bring your binoculars along.

There are warnings signs posted around the aery. Do note that only 5 persons are allowed on each floor at any one time.

Majestic canpoy

All at once, we were in the Kukup mangrove swamp and we were a bit overwhelmed by the greenery around us. The tall trees formed a very majestic canopy over our heads we continued to tread on the teak boards..

You could cover the whole of Pulau Kukup - Johor National Park by walking along the 800m of boardwalk which takes you around the east part of the island.

From the boardwalk you may observe the mangrove life and different types of vegetation on the forest floor. There are signboards at every station to give some explanation of the mangrove forest.

The whole journey will take you at least an hour if you stop to see, read, hear and smell the nature around you.
