What's famous in Kuala Selangor?
Kuala Selangor is a small coastal town located in Selangor state. It's only an hour and a half's drive from Kuala Lumpur. Formerly known as the old royal capital of Selangor, it has a rich diversity in history, nature and wildlife. It was a quiet town whose economy is driven by fishing industry in the straits of Melaka until the discovery of Sky Mirror. As today it has become a popular tourist destination in Malaysia.
Earlier in 2016, a group of travel enthusiasts having got to know about the mystery island from the fishermen. It's almost the best kept secret within the town only known to the locals. They decided to explore and what they discovered was a piece of untouched land that stunningly reflects the clear blue sky. These are the pioneers of the island's discovery who then named the place as Sky Mirror.
With the support from the local council and residents, Sky Mirror was introduced in 2016. It became an immediate sensation with a remarkable number of visitors worldwide visiting the town. In 2017, Sky Mirror was further recognized when its official jetty was launched.
Recently in 2021, a guide to Sky Mirror Kuala Selangor booklet launched to enhance tourist experiences.
