Kampung Kuantan is know for its fireflies (or Kelip-kelip, as it fondly called by the local) that dwell along Sg Selangor river banks and feeding on the Berembang trees (mangrove trees) that grow well in brackish water. The mangrove trees with its scientific name, Sonneratia Casolaris, can be found until 8 km upstream and 18 km downstream to Kuala Selangor.

There's not much to see nearby, so ensure that you are really keen to see it. The tours don't start until the sun is fully down, so it may even start at 8pm even when they say 7pm. Do put on insect repellent, lots of it. Don't bother taking photos as it's too dark anyway. Just enjoy the ride and be mesmerized about the butt lighting up !

The place is really worth going there as the fireflies r just amazing! The boat ride is also an interesting experience. The whole picture will sure amaze u as the beauty of shining bushes is unforgetable! But make sure that before u go there u apply some anti mosquito cream or spray. But if u r going thr do not expect any kind of a fency place with good facilities as the maintainance is way not too great. But the experience of going there is just unforgetable. Try to be at the place by 7.30pm to be the first to get the boat ride as when thr is less customers u can get a 30min ride instead of 15min
