Bera Lake, Malaysia
Malaysia - Langkawi - Kuala Lumpur - Penang
Bera Lake in Malaysia plays an important role in flood control, water flow regulation and purification. The lake also provides natural resources to the local community. The lake is protected under an international treaty Ramsar Convention. The treaty was declared in November 1994. The State Government of Pahang has undertaken plans to formulate a nature based tourism development plan. This plan includes the establishment of a visitor or field study center, the training of site personnel, and the integration of the local community into the overall development.
Bera Lake is also a sanctuary where you would come across 328 species of flora, 200 bird species, 50 mammals and more than 95 different species of fish. The wetland area and its surrounding forests support tigers, elephants and other endangered species which are however a bit difficult to discover. Other species known to exist in the Bera Lake area include clouded leopard, wild boars, monkeys, flying squirrels, and flying lemurs. You will spot a large number of fresh water fish species such as popular aquarium and sport fishes.
Nature enthusiasts will find the Bera Lake an ideal palace for recreational and adventurous activities. Visitors can indulge in jungle trek, participate in river safaris, or go fishing especially after heavy rains. The surroundings of the open waters are relatively isolated and tranquil and are perfect for boating or kayaking. Visitors can cruise river channels and inlets in search of vegetation and wildlife if they so desire.
