Evening Tour Monkeys & Fireflies

Description

Fireflies are lighting bugs and found in mangrove swamps. Kuala Selangor a fishing village has the largest colony of fireflies in the world. The fascinating fact about them is their synchronous flash is produced by a biochemical reaction in their light organs situated on their bottoms. The males direct the lights at the females who are gallivanting for fun. It is actually a mating ritual.

Of course the boat ride is exhilarating. Silence to prevail. Please do not use flash lights or disturb them.

Bukit Melawati hills houses an old lighthouse, Royal graves of 3 sultans, and the abode of the silvered leaf monkeys. Photo shoots.
