Local Heroes

What an amazing experience, explored the mangroves on the boat and met some of the most inspirational heroes who have worked hard in educating the local and the world about how important mangroves are for us and the planet. We met Pak Agus and his friends. Wow...I am super impressed to his substantial knowledge about Mangroves in general and how genuine he is in trying to protect the mangroves here. These guys are super heroes...feel really grateful to meet them and hearing their stories We saw a few proboscis monkeys out and about.

To-Do in Balikpapan
Astonishing mangrove forest which is managed and self-funded by local community at Graha Indah, Balikpapan. I was impressed by the calibre of the air in the forest - it was fresh and cooling you down from the heat of the city. I met Bapak Agus Bei - the founder of the forest and got new knowledge about mangrove and Bekantan from both Bapak Agus Bei and Bapak Herman - my skipper. I would say it is a To-Do in Balikpapan. To support the local community and to support maintaining mangrove and Bekantan.

enjoying the boat in the forest
Located in Gg. mangrove VI Graha Indah Residence, you can reach from Balikpapan to Samarinda road km 5. Turn left and keep the road until you find Graha Indah Residence 2. rent a boat price is Rp. 300.000 for max 6 people. The trip will take around 1hour. You'd better come in the morning or afternoon around 2-5 pm before sunset. Low tide usually around 11-13 pm, and the boat can not be used. Contact person : Pak Agus (081350371500)
