≈ 51 km from KL, as the crow flies

A long-time weekend beach for KL folk, on the Selangor coast near Banting. It's not a clear-water beach lah, but it's easy to reach, breezy and good for kites, coconuts and a slow sunset.

Good to know

  • The tide goes out a long way and the water is murky. Swim only when it's calm, and watch out for jellyfish.
  • On weekends, arrive before the late-afternoon crowds.

Last checked October 2026. Things change, so check opening times, fees and transport before you go.
