Fireflies boat cruise at Kampung Ibok, Chukai Kamaman - Terengganu.

On our last night of Cherating vacation, we visited the Yak Yah Firefly Sanctuary (N4.30647 E103.37418) which is located at Bungkus River (Sungai) around Kampung Ibok, Chukai Kamaman. The journey took about 45 - 60 minutes from Legend Resort Cherating (approx. 30KM).

Once we reached the riverside, there was a short safety briefing by the tour guide and everyone get ready with the 'life jacket' and prepare for the boat cruise...

I was really impressed by the boat (max. 15 person) which was running on battery! Yes, you heard me right! Operate by battery Not Diesel! This will reduce the pollution to the nature and we were Really enjoyed the quite boat ride....

Everyone prepared on the boat for the Fireflies river cruise...

I apologize because not able to take A single photo of the fireflies around the river...

The ride was quite and with the fresh air from the nature, the fireflies view was Awesome! The water reflection was really light up the Dark river! Total journey was about 8KM and it took almost an hour...
The tour guide was very knowledgable (who speak fluent English) and he was explaining about the firefly from start till end of the trip...

It was an eye opener for us especially the Battery operating boat. We took another hour back to the resort and everyone was exhausted because of the whole day activities...I end my 2nd day at Cherating in the pub accompany with beers and other teammates...

If you have enough time on your vacation, don't mind trying this fireflies boat cruise. I like the environment very much even we were in the dark most of the time...:)

We left the Legend Resort on the next day noon time after the Nice lunch provided...and we'll see you again Cherating! Bye!
