Some may not even know of the existence of fireflies and ask about these fireflies that we speak of. The fireflies, also known as kelip-kelip in the Malay language, is a rare sight as development has caught up to them, but fear not, as first-timers would still be mesmerized as the male fireflies flash their bulbs in unison to attract the female kind! Kampung Kuantan is well known for its Fireflies. Lots of the fireflies nest only available here. Moreover, there has been opinion that magical fireflies are only available at 2 places in the world and one of it is in Kampung Kuantan.

The adventure of the fireflies' area began in the early 1970 by a local businessman that saw the commercial potential of this miracle. Now, the adventure has been entrusted to the Kuala Selangor District Council and has expanded rapidly with the addition of 27 small boats that are provided for the visitors. A sampan could be rented and a boatman would be there to guide tourists through the river, bringing them to areas that have the most fireflies in order for them to have the best sight of this natural beauty.

It is prohibited for tourists to bring cameras with flashbulbs as it would disrupt the fireflies and their way of nature. So, tourists are advised to bring a night vision camera if they wish to capture the moments.
