Along this river, visitors can witness the famous fireflies (kelip-kelip in Bahasa Melayu) during the evenings and nights. The fireflies inhabit the mangrove tree species known as Berembang, and it is said to be one of the largest firefly colonies in the world.
Fireflies, also called ‘lightning bugs,’ emit a bright glow at night to attract mates. Although they can shine during the day, it is not visible to humans. They are only seen at night in and around the ‘Berembang’ trees along the Selangor River.
There are several delightful restaurants, primarily serving fresh seafood. Restoran Kuala Selangor is a place where a delicious local meal was enjoyed at Pasir Penambang.
