Sabak Bernam is the most north-westerly district in Selangor state. The Bernam river to its north marks the boundary to neighbouring Perak state. Primarily an agricultural area, Sabak Bernam district is the rice-bowl of Selangor state, with its rice paddies in the areas around Sekinchan.
Bagan Nakhoda Omar is the main "beach" in Sabak Bernam. For convenience sake it is often called "BNO" for short.
BNO is not really a beach in the traditional sense of the word. A rocky flat coastline with a small river flowing into the sea. In the distance you will see sticks sticking out of the water - probably to mark how shallow the sea is.
There is an open air food court with the normal Malay gerai (stalls) selling local favourites such as mee udang (prawn mee).
BNO is also the starting point of the boat to the Kelong Paradise, 15 nautical miles off the coast. The Kelong is a structure built in the Straits of Melaka, for fishing enthusiasts to fish to their hearts content, complete with accommodation facilities.
