A typical view of the village in Sekinchan.

Sekinchan is a small town located in Sabak Bernam, Selangor, Malaysia. It is located along the coastal Federal Route 5. The Chinese name of the town "适耕庄" literally means "suitable for planting" in English.

Apart from being a lively fishing village, Sekinchan is one of the major rice producing areas of Malaysia. The vast, well-irrigated and organized paddy fields around Sekinchan produce one of the highest yields of rice in the country.

Sekinchan is often visited for its fresh seafood. It also draws diners from Kuala Lumpur and Ipoh. There are some rice millers in the area where locally produced rice can be purchased.

"The Seeds of Life", a local Chinese drama, is set there.^[1]

Sekinchan's first water park, MSekin Wonderland, was opened in 2021. The water park, which is not far from the beach, includes roughly ten different pools with slides, fountains, and other features such as trampolines, ATVs, and electric bikes. Hotel rooms and tents for rent are available for accommodation.^[2]
