The western coast islands, less popular than the those on the oriental coast, will delight the visitors who venture there. Easily accessible from Kuala Lumpur, they present a diversity of landscapes and auras as well as a rich cultural heritage.

Malaysia is a surprising country in every way. And the cluster of lakes linked to one another that go by the name of Tasik Chini will definitely live up to expectations! If this is not the case, then maybe the lake's monster will leave you speechless; rumour has it that it haunts the depths!

 As well as being the capital of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur is one of Asia's hubs. It is a modern town surrounded by oil palms where you should spend several days.

The Kinabatangan River is one of the last wild paradises, on an island where the wealth of animal and plant life is a victim of palm oil farming and massive deforestation. 
560 km in length, it passes through the east of Sabah to the Sulu Sea, winding through the rainforest, mangroves and sometimes, unfortunately, through fields of oil palms. An inexhaustible water resource (although the level decreases sharply during the dry season), it is the environmental lifeline of a multitude of animal species that live in its waters, on its swampy banks or among the tall trees bordering the river.  
I was lucky enough to spend several days in the Kinabatangan area, combining hiking and boat excursions in order to observe this stunningly rich plant and animal life. Both by day and by night, I was able to observe many freshwater crocodiles, several species of monkeys, toucans, rhinoceros, lizards and many other species. In the heart of the wet season, it is not uncommon to cross orang-utans and pigmy elephants during a simply amazing safari.
