Kuala Sungai Pinang

Kuala Sungai Pinang is a charming and traditional fishing village located at the mouth of the Pinang River (Sungai Pinang) in the rural district of Balik Pulau. This "kuala," or river mouth, is the heart of the village, where local fishermen moor their boats and bring in their daily catch. A visit to Kuala Sungai Pinang offers an authentic glimpse into the slow-paced, traditional lifestyle that is still prevalent on the western side of Penang Island. The area is scenic and rustic, with wooden houses, fishing nets laid out to dry, and the constant, gentle activity of the fishing community. It's a place to experience the cultural heritage of Penang's fishing industry and enjoy the peaceful, coastal atmosphere.
