We decided to book an accommodation here and walk through the mangrove in the morning. The dorm cost Rm220 for 6 pax. Has only the basic - bed+blanket, showering facilities, plus is air-conditioned. We were prepared and brought our own toiletries and towels. It was a pleasant stay, quiet at night. The manager is very attentive to our needs. Since we stayed overnight we don't have to pay tickets to the nature park. The mangrove walk has been covered in detail in other people's reviews. A lot of mosquitoes and insects - somehow we still got bitten despite our repellant. But mangrove part is OK, and more interesting because can see a lot of crabs and mudskippers. Managed to see some woodpeckers, but not other birds. Didn't get to see the otters, many giant monitor lizards passing through the path.

Great place to appreciate and learn about nature. Malangnya, tidak mendapat sokongan dari kerajaan negeri Selangor mahupun dari Majlis Daerah Kuala Selangor. Seperti biasa, MNS is doing this preservation work all alone.
