mouth of
River Kemena

Bintulu is a small town of 200,000 people. It has grown from a fishing village over the last 20 years because of liquefied natural gas found off its shore as well as a thriving timber industry in its hinterland. It is located by the Kemena River. A beautiful promenade has been built along the river to the point where it meets the South China Sea. It is a favourite angler's haunt as there are lots of fishes around here.
