Kind of an abandoned mangrove, although we met a nice Swedish chap and between us we paid 500,000 idr to have a trip down the river. Not the best place to visit.

Understated and insufficiently advertised. For IDR25k per person (foreigner) you can join a wooden boat ferry along a river channel to the estuary, where there is an elevated bamboo walkway to a number of sheltered open sided wooden buildings also on stilts. For there you can observe the picturesque mangrove coast, with Madura visible across the sea. There are WC facilities at the estuary and wildlife includes monkeys, thousands of mudskipper fish at low tide, fishing birds and we even saw a small alligator scurrying into the bank of the river channel. Back on mainland, there are lots of local food sellers and a 'jogging' track into the reserve.

It would be a nice place to go for walk and silence. As a tourist wanting to make the most of short visit to Surabaya, a mangrove is a mangrove. Seen one, seen them all

The place is rather near from surabaya timur city but the access is small. Nice place but rather have 'dark' ambience especially in mangroove walk. You can sightseeing and take small ship to man-made island here.

Most facilities are poorly maintain. The walk to the mangrove is dirty and not enough information to the visitors on what's happen in this place. Plastic and trash should get managed well, please. Price is good. Tour with the boat is nice.
