Pulau Ketam ('Crab Island') is a car-free Teochew and Hokkien fishing village on stilts, a 30โ40 minute ferry ride from Port Klang, and people come for crab cooked a dozen ways, fish balls and lala fresh off the boats. Take an early ferry, eat curry laksa for breakfast, cycle the plank walkways, have a crab lunch near the jetty and catch the boat back before dusk.
