Sekonyer Village
Desa Sungai Sekonyer
A small fishing village across the river from the Tanjung Harapan feeding station, with stilt houses along the water where visitors can see local life and buy handmade crafts.
Sekonyer Village lies across the river from the Tanjung Harapan feeding station and is one of the few settlements around the national park. Residents are mostly Malay and Dayak people, who make their living through fishing, boatbuilding and guiding, and some houses are built on stilts. Many klotok boat trips make a short stop here. Visitors can walk a loop through the village lanes, see the school and mosque, and buy rattan bags and handicrafts. Basic homestays are also available. The village is small and takes 30–60 minutes to explore. Please respect villagers’ privacy and ask before photographing people.
