Sky Mirror, Fireflies Cruise, Blue Tears
Tour Code: AMH-KSF_03
Discover this mysterious beach in the middle of the sea off Kuala Selangor!
Most of the time, it is submerges underneath the sea, which make it uncharted on the world map. It is when the tide is ideal that this sand bar emerges, Malaysia’s own “Salar de Uyuni”. The shallow waters of this “Secret Island” reflects the sky in all its going, thus creating many unique photography opportunities. The Island makes a perfect travel destination for your holiday, it is also a habitat for many marine agriculture. The most common are the sea and baby clam scattered abundantly in the sand.
Staying 2 nights in Kuala Selangor, you will have time to explore the sleepy village and enjoy some peaceful time after the crowds left.
We will also visit the paddy fields at Sekinchan and learn how rice is being processed.
On return journey back Singapore, we can explore one of the oldest Organic Farm in Malaysia. You will learn more about Organic Farming and Your Food Source. The tour takes approximately 90mins with explanation and experience hands-on farm activities to harvest vegetable for lunch. An organic lunch will be served after the farm tour. This farm tour only available on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and selected Public Holiday.
In the evenings, watch the synchronized flashing of thousands of fireflies glowing spectacularly along the banks of Selangor River. Another not to miss is the “Blue Tears” – a natural nighttime phenomenon caused by Dinoflagellates, an algae or marine plankton that emits blue-green light at night.
