About Kuala Selangor Fireflies

The berembang trees along the Selangor River at Kampung Kuantan hold one of the largest firefly colonies in the world. After dark, male fireflies flash in near-unison, and visitors watch from small rowed sampans for about 20 minutes. The area is a night trip from Kuala Lumpur of about 70 km.

Boats run in the evening only. Published fares and times differ between sources and we could not confirm a current schedule, so check both with the operator before you set off and aim to arrive soon after dark. The display is best on dark, dry nights, and flash photography and torches are not allowed. Bring mosquito repellent and expect queues at weekends. There is no public transport, so go by car, Grab or an evening tour.
