When night falls in this sleepy coastal village, be in awe as the Kuala Sepetang fireflies put on a magnificent display of synchronized dancing lights! Living in the Berembang trees that grow in abundance at the mangrove reserve, these little light-bulbs are unforgettable with its glimmering displays in the night sky. It’s just one of those magical moments one should not miss in Taiping, Perak.

For those who love gazing over the evening stars and spending the night in the quiet serenity of nature, Kuala Sepetang Fireflies experience provides just that. Even better, it allows you to get intimately close with these little brilliant creatures.
The fireflies in Kuala Sepetang are mostly made up of Pteroptyx tener species, a kind of beetle that resides in the Berembang tree that grows abundantly in the Kuala Sepetang mangroves. The trip takes about 40 minutes cruising through the river to the Matang Forest Reserve – You will come to learn of the incredible life cycle of these mangrove trees before the awaited firefly performance.
