Banting: A Top Spot on Selangor’s Tourist Trail

Set along the banks of the Langat River, a 60-mile river that runs westward between Mount Nuang and the Straits of Malacca, Banting is a firm fixture on Selangor’s tourist trail. This area is known for its scenic beaches, coastal plains and sprawling rural landscapes. Banting lives up to the area’s acclaim and, as a result, is a must-visit on any trip to the Kuala Langat District. Accommodation in Banting, particularly hostels and lower-end hotels, can be found downtown, although there’s also a hotel or two along the waterfront where upmarket stays can usually be enjoyed at a great price.

Spend Time at the Beach

The Pantai Morib beach is a clean stretch of sand that is popular with both locals and visitors to the area. The water is suitable for swimming although it is possible to walk out on the sand for around a mile at low tide. Watch out for the tiny scurrying crabs you’ll likely encounter along the way. Also at low tide, the beach is a popular spot for kite-flying. Kites can be purchased from beachside stores should you forget to bring your own. If you’re up for a day trip, Bagan Lalang Beach, situated southeast of Banting, is another popular beach. At weekends and public holidays, beach vendors set up stalls to peddle locally-crafted clothes and shoes to visitors.

Get to Know the Mah Meri People

You won’t need to travel far from Banting to inject a little culture into your stay. The Mah Meri Cultural Village, situated on Pulau Carey island and within a 35-minute drive from the town, offers visitors the chance to experience the lifestyle of a subgroup of the Selangor-based Senoi people. It’s worth calling ahead to make an appointment or visiting on an official tour to ensure that the villagers are there during your trip but, with confirmation in the bag, you can expect to be enthralled by demonstrations of wedding rituals, traditional dance, and origami weaving. Be sure to rent one of the village’s charming rickety bikes to explore the island and, before you leave, pick up a wood carving or a pretty basket woven from pandanus leaves as a souvenir.
