Bagan Lalang

Bagan Lalang is a coastal beach in Sepang district of Selangor state, it is the nearest beach from Klang Valley. This flat and seems long beach is popular spot for camping and picnic activities. According to official direction guide, driving from KL to the beach is taking 1 hour 15mins but i managed to get there in about 50mins with help from GPS locate device, by using Putrajay/Cyberjaya highway -> Sepang -> Sg.Pelek route.

It was sunset and low tide about 7pm, the beach was packed with people but it's hardly see any Indian, about 5% Chinese visitors and the rest are Malays. It could be the nature of surrounding areas are 'kampung' (Malay village) that probably made this beach as their usual 'hang-out' place for picnic, camping or jalan-jalan. During that hour, it was nice to walk as far out as possible towards seaside to enjoy the sea view.

Along the beach, there's lots of Malay seafood stores and mostly started to get crowded by dawn. Seafood stuffs such like 'Ikan Pari Bakar', 'Ketam Bakar', prawns.. etc are considered cheap, five dishes were only charged RM48.80 ! Imagine, it will only cost you around RM100+ for ten dishes... well, don't think can find anywhere in town. Surely, another difference is the Malay cooking style as it's really different from Chinese cooking. Some people especially Chinese may not able to enjoy the food because of the ways of cooking but I was fine with that anyway.

In overall, this beach has no interesting spots to check out nor any best seafood store to try out, but it is a nice place for relaxing, unwind, and 'blow-blow' wind when walking on the sands just like the pictures shown.
