Kuala Sepetang- Matang Mangrove Forest


10 Icons Of Perak - Matang Mangrove Forest


The 40,000-hectare Matang Mangrove Forest was gazetted as a Permanent Forest Reserve in 1906.  Today, it is recognized as the best managed sustainable mangrove ecosystem in the world.  This mangrove reserve contains rich and diverse wildlife that provide nature lovers to visit and explore its wetlands and resources.  Near to this reserve are silvicultural programmes of the Rhizophora, Lenggadai and Seaward berus forests carried out professionally by the Perak State Forestry Department.  This is also regarded as the breeding grounds for numerous species of marine crustaceans including crabs, shrimps, lobsters, horseshoe crabs and prawns as well as fishes and shellfishes. Like all mangrove swamps, the Matang Mangrove Forest Reserve has been proven to act as a natural barrier against tsunamis.  Undoubtedly, it is an important site for coastal migratory water birds and a portion of migrant forest birds.  As many as 43,000 to 85,000 birds may be seen using the forest during the migration.  According to some ornithologists, there is a small population of rare and shy Great Argus Pheasant (Argusianus argus), known locally by the Malays as Kuang, that stays close to the ground and makes short flights to low hanging branches of the mangrove trees.  These large birds make a characteristic sound in the mangrove forests with two main calls – a repeated slow double note ku-wow ku-wow and a series of single hoots kwow kwow kwow kwow accelerating and rising in pitch.  During courtship, the male clears a display ground of bare earth in the forest from where he calls to attract females to watch it spread its wings in a striking peacock-like show of magnificence and beauty.  Along the coastline and near to villages, tourists will be welcomed by the sight of Brahminy Kites (Haliastur indus)
Brahminy Kites (Haliastur indus)
and White-bellied Sea-eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster) gracefully in flight scavenging for floating offal and fishes in rivers and the neighbouring mangrove swamps.

It is also found that the 255-hectare Pulau Kelumpang and the 130-hectare Pulau Terong support a viable breeding population of the endangered Milky Stork (Mycteria cinerea) and the Lesser Adjutant (Leptoptilos javanicus).



Stroll along the wooden boardwalk and observe forestry and fishing activities and denizens that thrive in the muddy mangrove floor.  Visit the mangrove forest and charcoal kiln sites which are found more inland.  Bird watching and fishing are the primary activities in the morning while at night get a boat ride to see synchronized blinking lights of fireflies of Pteroptyx species on Berembang trees or Sonneratia caseolaris.  Occasionally, the Chinese White Dolphin (Sousa chinensis), 
 
Chinese White Dolphin (Sousa chinensis)
 also known as the Indo-Pacific Humpback Dolphin, can be spotted swimming along the river-mouths.  This dolphin is one of the 2 known species of pink freshwater dolphins found in the world.  A native of Southeast Asia, the dolphin is either white or pink-skinned and can grow to the length of 3.5 metres.  There is also a prehistoric archaeological site in Pulau Kelumpang.

Out to the sea, visitors on boats may also be fortunate enough to see dugongs (Dugong dugon) swimming near the river deltas.

According to the Perak State Forestry Department, in the Matang Mangrove Forest there are:

Storkbill Kingfisher

  1. 28 true mangrove species and 13 associate mangrove species;
  2. 19 mammals such as the Long-tailed Macaque (Macaca fascicularis), Leopard Cat (Felis bengalensis), Malayan Pangolin (Manis javanica), Smooth Otter (Lutra perspicillata), Short-tailed Mongoose (Herpestes brachyurus) and Island Flying Fox (Pteropus hypomelanus);
  3. at least 155 species of birds including the Great Argus Pheasant (Argusianus argus), Buffy Fish Owl (Ketupa ketupu), Pink-necked Green Pigeon (Treron vernans), the rare Bronzed Drongo (Dicrurus aeneus) and the Mangrove Whistler (Pachycephala grisola);
  4. a species of river dolphin, i.e. the Chinese White Dolphin (Sousa chinensis);
  5. 112 species of modern bony fishes and 3 species of stingrays;
  6. and about 50 species of crabs and 20 species of prawns and shrimps, both edible and non-edible.

KUALA GULA BIRD SANCTUARY

A few kilometres at the northern tip of the Matang mangrove forest lies a large wetland swamp where local and migratory birds flourish. Go see the endangered storks, egrets, herons, kingfishers, bulbuls, doves, woodpeckers, magpies, sunbirds, tailorbirds, swifts, sparrows, kites and migratory birds from the northern hemisphere.
The Kuala Gula Bird Sanctuary is among the well-established bird sanctuaries in the Asian region.  It was established in the early 1970’s with the main objective is to protect and conserve the migratory as well as resident bird species.  There are more than 160 species of birds found in the Kuala Gula Bird Sanctuary comprising at least 48 species of migratory birds and 118 species of resident or local birds.  The migratory birds such as the Eurasian curlew (Numenius arquata), Common Redshank (Tringa totanus), Common Greenshank (Tringa nebularia), Mongolian Plovers (Charadrius mongolus), Pacific Goldenplover (Pluvialis fulva), Common Sandpiper (Actitis hypoleucos)

, Cattle Egret (Bubulcus ibis), Little Egret (Egretta garzetta), Great Egret (Ardea alba), Black-headed Gull (Larus ridibundus), Black-naped Tern (Sterna sumatrana) come from Siberia, Japan and China during the migratory season from September until April each year. They usually come in large flocks, numbering from several hundreds to several thousands, individuals.

The mangrove swamp forest and a long stretched of mudflat beaches here provide an excellent feeding ground and nesting habitat for these birds.  The mudflat or benthos ecosystem is rich with minute organisms and plankton such as small crabs, crustaceans, annelids and copepods which are rich in protein.  These organisms also provide the nutrients to generate energy the birds require to continue their journey to the south.

Malaysian Nature Society and the Office of the District Forest Ranger hold bird watching events called “Bird Race” annually between the months of September and April, and it is a must of bird watchers to participate in these events.  For more information, visit websites of the Malaysian Nature Society: www.mns.my or the Perak State Forestry Department: www.forestry.gov.my
Tourists can join fishermen in their daily fishing trips, help them to pull up their fishing nets, collect the fishes and shrimps and put them into pails or ice-boxes.  Tourists can also be of privilege to purchase freshly caught fishes and shrimps from the fishermen.

HOW TO GO
On the North-South Highway, exit at the Taiping Utara toll and follow road signage to Kuala Gula.  At Kuala Gula, there is a small Chinese fishing village surrounded with scattered Malay houses.  All around this small fishing village is mangrove forest where bird-watchers and nature lovers can venture in. 


WHERE TO STAY
Simple and comfortable accommodation can be sought at the Matang Nature Education Centre or homestay in nearby Malay villages as mentioned above.

WHERE TO EAT

PULAU KELUMPANG PREHISTORIC SITE

 

Pulau Kelumpang, an island located in the Matang mangroves, is reputed to have the most picturesque mangrove swamp in the world.  A visit to this island is a must for those who wish to have a closer look at nature and learn about the special habitat of the wildlife found here.
According to an archaeological study by the Malaysia Science University or USM, Pulau Kelumpang was found to be inhabited by an early Malay settlement about 1,000 years ago. Their remains and graveyards together with natural and synthetic gem and rock artifacts have been found in Pulau Kelumpang.
As such, this island is an excellent destination for tourists who are interested in nature or archaeology, but only for a day trip because this island does not have accommodation nor food outlets.

HOW TO GO
A boat ride is required to go to Pulau Kelumpang.  Make arrangements with either the office of the District Forest Ranger or negotiate a boat ride with the villagers from the nearby villages.  

WHERE TO STAY
There is no accommodation in island, and camping is not very suitable as there is no fresh water.  Try affordable homestay at nearby Malay villages.

WHERE TO EAT

Sincere there is also no food outlet on this island, visitors are advised to bring along some snacks and bottled drinks.

Assalamualaikum. 

Saya hendak mengucapkan terima kasih kepada En Khairul yg telah menyediakan pakage lawatan tempoh hari. 

Secara keseluruhan, semua berpuas hati dengan lawatan tersebut. 

Walau bagaimanapun, disebabkan oleh banyak aktiviti fizikal diwaktu tengahari, ramai yg tidak selesa terutama selepas melawat kilang arang. 

Sebagai cadangan, selepas seharian beraktiviti, perlu ada masa senggang untuk membersihkan diri agar lebih selesa untuk makan malam serta aktiviti di waktu malam. 

Saya berharap maklum balas tersebut dapat meningkatkan kepuasan peserta lain. 

Terima kasih.

Reporters Testimonial

The sight of Kuala Sepetang fireflies is spectacular! Jessie, I can say that it's better than Kuala Selangor today, and much better than the other spots I've been - Yakyah and Merang in Terengganu. Can't say if it's the best in Malaysia - more than 50 known spots including in Sabah and Sarawak. But what i can say is that it's worth the money to go check it out. Yes, Aida, u should go too. Yr kids will love those "lightning bugs". Do read my story on Kpg Dew in Travel, NST Putri Zanina Charcoal & Village Tour Ipoh Echo Mariam Mokhtar
For my value costumer: Agent Price to Zoo Taiping & Night Safari plus Bukit Merah Waterpark
