The beach is located in the southern shoreline of Melaka and is facing directly to the Strait of Malacca. The beach is located next to the 1Malaysia Square.

Located 15 minutes from Melaka city, at the end of the Klebang peninsula, these hills of sand are the result of land reclamation activities from a decade ago. Due to stability issues, beach front developments were abandoned, leaving many piles of sand 10m to 20m high, sitting idle on a land of emptiness.





The man-made Klebang Dunes are also popular for bridal portraits and continue to draw photography enthusiasts (professional and amateur) to experiment on its blank canvas for dramatic photoshoots against the perfect backdrop of blue skies and white dunes.



Climbing the dunes is a not-to-be-missed experience as you will slide down a little with each step up, as the soft sand shifts under your feet.





Expect to work a little bit harder to cover the same amount of ground. That said, the sand is not as fine as the volcanic ash of Mount Bromo in Indonesia, and is manageable for beginners and less-experienced hikers.





Most people will adjust to the slide, finding the effort totally worth it for the views and that ‘top-of-the-hill’ feeling.
