Carey Island is located to the south of Port Klang and north of Banting town.

It is a huge island separated from the Selangor coast by the Langat River, connected by two bridges from Chodoi and Teluk Panglima Garang near Banting[2] and a bridge from Pulau Indah and Pulau Carey.

It was named after Edward Valentine John Carey, an English planter in Malaya who acquired the island from Sultan Sir Alaeddin Sulaiman Shah of Selangor to start rubber plantations.

It is an initial settlement area for the Mah-Meri (pronounced [max mri]), one of the aborigine Orang Asli tribes of Malaysia.

Apart from exhibitions of their traditional dances and music, the Mah Meri are particularly known for their votive sculptures, fashioned from a kind of swamp hardwood known as "Nyireh Batu".
