Pantai Remis, Selangor

I have lost count on how many times I have been to this place, after all, its only half an hour's drive from my house.  On most unplanned weekends, we'd like to take the scenic drive to Pantai Remis, stopping for brunch at Nasi Lemak Kapar Restaurant at Kapar town.  Usually on bright and sunny Sundays, it was always nice to take some time off to go kite flying or seashells picking by the beach...

things to see and spends money on

Its only this colorful during weekends, and usually swarmed by locals. There are fishermen's villages and jetty nearby, its a good place for photographers and birders too.  About 20+km, its Kuala Selangor and one could take the opportunity to catch sights of the fireflies at the mangroves..

always a spectacular skies over Pantai Remis

no shortage of cold beverages at these local stalls

on a good season, you could get oysters for about RM1-RM2 each

in the distance, you could stay at on one of the 'kelong' to fish


Just millions and millions of black barnacles, creates quite a contrast to the colors and seascape.  These muddy shores are perfect habitat for the shellfish species, and if u have the time and perseverance towards the blazing sun, u could harvest them yourself!












These horseshoe crabs makes a rare appearance! Laden with eggs, said to be quite delicious.. but I'll pass!  But they do look quite interesting, with its' thick armor and pointy legs.











If you come here early, you could get a nice spot under the shady casuarina trees.

Anytime or anyday, always a fun time for the boys :)
