Bukit Melawati
The hill overlooks the Strait of Malacca and has a lighthouse as well as the remains of the Kota Melawati fort. By the way, while cars are allowed up the hill on weekdays, only trams are used to ferry visitors on weekends, due to insufficient parking bays. Two trams are available, with each capable of accommodating 44 to 50 pax.
Atop the hill sits the Kuala Selangor Lighthouse, also known as Altingsburg Lighthouse. Built in 1907, this lighthouse is so well maintained that it is still in use today, to guide ships that sail along the Straits of Malacca. Hence, the lighthouse is lighted up from 7pm to 6am daily. We were allowed to climb up the lighthouse but only to the first level. I was informed that on “Open Day”, visitors are permitted to ascend the lighthouse to the top. Moving on, we will proceed to Local Seafood Restaurant for a dinner. The place got wonderful ambience to eat fresh seafood facing the Selangor River. The wooden floors are also smooth and neat. It is also a nice seafood restaurant with reasonable price for everyone.
Then continue to Pasir Penambang, which is a launch point on the Selangor River. We will travel along the river by motorboat and watch the fireflies or kelip-kelip glow in the evening air. Discover the fireflies’ mysterious synchronicity: though each firefly flashes at its own rhythm, the lights slowly align until thousands of bugs light up in unison, and coastal Malaysia is considered the best place in the world to see the phenomenon.
pass by Kampung Kuantan, a launch point on the Selangor River. Note:our customer could choose to watch the fireflies by eco-friendly rowboat (please coordinate with our driver on the tour itself)
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
