Pasir Panjang Beach

Pasir Panjang Beach, which translates to "Long Sand Beach," is located on the remote southwestern coast of Penang Island, near the town of Balik Pulau. True to its name, it is a relatively long and straight stretch of sandy beach. This beach is much quieter and less developed than the popular tourist beaches on the northern coast, offering a more rustic and peaceful atmosphere. It is a place where locals often go for picnics and to enjoy the sea, and there may be a few simple food stalls nearby. The serene environment and the natural beauty of the coastline make Pasir Panjang a lovely destination for those looking to escape the crowds and experience a more tranquil side of Penang's coastal scenery.
