I woke up at about 9:30am and was free today. I surfed for a while online and came across an article about Pulau Ketam. Hey, I haven’t been to this place and it was not far a way. It is about one hours away from Kuala Lumpur by car.
Pulau Ketam is a small island located off the coast of Port Klang and is accessible by ferry from Port Klang. Literally translated, Pulau Ketam means Crab Island.
Actually, driving to Port Klang was a mistake. It’s more convenient to use the KTM, as the jetty to Pulau Ketam is just next to the Port Klang KTM station.
First thing I did after reaching Pulau Ketam was of course to find some seafood to eat!
Different types of ferry used for transportation.
The small speedy motor boat operated by private party.
The old fashion ferry for transportation.
The newer and official ferry for transportation.
Inside of the ferry.
Pulau Ketam is a fishing village mainly dominated by Hokian Chinese. There aren’t many landmarks in Pulau Ketam. So, even the basic facilities like the police station and fire station are considered as local attractions. There are however quite a number of Chinese temples at the island.
There are no cars on the island, the major land transport is by bicycles or you walk with feet.
