A Sarawak River Penambang is a traditional small boat service used to ferry passengers across the Sarawak River, particularly around Kuching. It has long served as a convenient way for local communities and visitors to travel between riverbanks.
Today, the Penambang is not only a mode of transportation but also part of Sarawak’s cultural identity, offering passengers a simple and scenic way to experience the river and Kuching waterfront.
