2017 Pulau Kukup Mangrove

Pulau Kukup is located near to Kukup town in Johor, Malaysia. We had to take a boat to the island. Do remember to get the phone number of the boatman for the return trip!
A very well conserved mangrove forest with boardwalks and boards describing the trees we saw.

 
Look at the javelin shaped seed of the Rhizophora. It's sharp end and weight allows it to anchor firmly in the mud and germinate
