Sungai Batu Beach

Sungai Batu Beach is a local beach located in the fishing village of Sungai Batu, on the southern coast of Penang Island. This is a rustic and charming beach that is more popular with locals than with tourists, offering a peaceful and authentic coastal experience. The beach is the heart of the fishing village, and you can see the local fishermen's boats moored nearby and watch them go about their daily work.

The area is particularly well-known for its simple, open-air seafood stalls and restaurants, where you can enjoy very fresh and affordably priced seafood, especially grilled fish ("ikan bakar"). It's a great place to relax, enjoy the sea breeze, and savor a delicious local meal in a laid-back, traditional village setting.
