Taman Negara Pulau Kukup
This island has swamps and mangrove forests.
And not only is it important as a national park Johor, but also digazet as the world’s most important natural heritage park.
This 261-acre island is the 2nd largest mangrove swamp in the world.
And this island has no inhabitants. Yeah yeah, who wants to sit in the hanger.
Whatever this place is important for the biodiversity of nature. This is also a place for migratory birds.
According to the studyer, birds far from Russia are still resting here.
The story of the Kutuh Island Legend
If you follow the people here, they used to sit here 5 princesses. But one of the princesses fell in love with a cat. And get married. As a result, the island is quite spilled and it is submerged.
When it does, there is a island just a mangrove swamp. This person says it’s a curse.
And even if someone tried to live, it didn’t work out. Even sitting here, people say, is just a pirate once in a while.
Here is a long wooden platform that you use to enter the mangrove swamp.
And this platform will take you to the island’s largest mangrove swamp.
You can find out and see the mangrove trees (there are 18 types in the island), as well as see the animals that make this area their home.
But most are small snails and mudskipper fish (tracking) that can go up and down.
If pigs, spiders, monkeys may exist but rarely show face.
From the entrance to the landmarks of the island of Kukur, the distance is within 1km.
So far and willing to walk and walk.
There is also a wooden block path to the platform area.
Just because this is a damp forest area, the path area may rot.
Be careful if you bring a kid. There may be a damaged wood platform area.
here, you take a boat to the Village Village pier.
Strange to get to the jet you need to get into the restaurant area.
The journey from the Village Village Jetty to the island of Kukur is only 10 minutes (1 km from the mainland).
On the way you will pass through the fish farms in cages as well as fishing boats here.
Other Alternatives

That’s all you have to do, you don’t have to ride a boat, and you can come by.
Ideal for those who want to visit but not enough time.
The distance between the Kukai jetty and the Cape Piai is only 30 minutes away.
