Morib used to be an inconspicuous yet popular beach with minimal facilities. Recently, however, a big refurbishment project took place, transforming the humble strip of sand with numerous casuarina trees into a modern public park."
Gracing the beach park are modern sculptures, fancy lamp posts, gazebos and comfortable seating areas that are ideal for family picnics. There are ample public toilets and parking spaces, too.
On weekends and public holidays, plenty of eateries and stalls offering all sorts of knick-knacks ranging from souvenirs, kites, beach balls and also tasty snacks.
Being just about 1.5 hour's drive away from Kuala Lumpur, Morib is a hit with the crowds come evening time when the weather is cooler. You can find people frolicking by the beach waters, flying kites, picnicking and generally, having a fun and relaxing day out with the family.
Morib is near to seafood areas such as Tanjung Sepat and Bagan Lalang. It is not uncommon for people to come to Morib to enjoy the sunset before heading off to one of those restaurants for a bout of delicious seafood.
Rich in history, Morib is surrounded by historical sites such as Jugra which contains royal graves, old ruins and even a long-forgotten palace from the 1800's. Significantly, on September 1945, Allied Forces landed on the beach and heralded the end of the Japanese Army's occupation in Malaya.
Head to Bagan Lalang, within a close proximity to Kuala Lumpur International Airport and discover why it is poised to be a major tourist spot in Sepang.
The whole area, which included other early settlements like Jeram, about 16km to Permatang, on the other side of Sungai Selangor (Selangor River), was under the rule of the Malacca Empire and, later, the Johor Empire.
