Air Hitam Dalam Educational Forest

The Air Hitam Dalam Educational Forest, located in Sungai Dua, Butterworth, is a unique and important eco-tourism site. It is a freshwater swamp forest, a type of ecosystem that is becoming increasingly rare. The forest has been developed as an educational and recreational park, with a key feature being its extensive network of boardwalks and suspension bridges that allow visitors to walk through the heart of the mangrove and swamp environment without disturbing it. This provides an excellent opportunity for bird watching, as the forest is a habitat for many species of birds and other wildlife, including monkeys and monitor lizards. It is a valuable green lung and a center for environmental education, offering a peaceful and immersive nature experience on the mainland.
