The Beach

Our Take

Penang's main beach resort area with international chain hotels. Sandy beach but water quality is average due to port proximity. Good water sports facilities. Famous night market with food and souvenirs. More about convenience than pristine beach experience. Family-friendly with plenty of restaurants. Easy access to George Town. Better suited for a few hours than a beach holiday.
