Morib Beach Malaysia

Morib Beach Malaysia. It’s around 75 kms from downtown Kuala Lumpur.

Morib Beach (or Pantai Morib) is one of the closest beaches to Kuala Lumpur and for that reason can get busy with day-trippers during weekends and public holidays.
Seaside area with a coastal promenade, shade trees & picnic pavilions, plus toilet facilities.

When the tide is high there is no beach to speak of and the waves lap up against the promenade wall.
Many visitors to Morib only see the promenade section and miss entirely this much better stretch of sandy beach just around 500 m before the main beach.
Efforts have been made in recent years to provide more facilities at the beach and to beautify the surroundings with some hard landscaping.
This beach was one of the sites chosen by the allies to land an invasion force at the end of WWII as part of Operation Zipper and this memorial marks the spot. The objective was to retake Malaya from the Japanese. Japan surrendered days before the invasion force arrived
