Batu Ferringhi Beach, Penang, Malaysia

3.5 (1.597 reviews) Spent Ranking #4 in Penang Beaches

Lovely Sunset

We decided to spend a couple of hours watching the sun go down and were met with men offering touristy things to do like paragliding, jet skis, banana boating, and hourse riding. no peace till sunset, then the fireworks began..literally. bangs and sparks flew as people set them off. it was a sight to behold, fireworks going off 10metres from your face. we were rewarded with a breathtaking sunset with the red and orange hues dancing on the clouds above. nice..

Busy Beach but Lovely to Swim In
Came to Penang on holiday and stayed at Batu Ferringhi. While it was pretty crowded over the weekend, there was always a spot to put your things down and join in the fun on playing on the sand or jumping into the sea - the water was very warm and lovely. There is plenty of paid water sport activities to do however we did not participate in any of them and just enjoyed the sun and surf. Most pleasant and the beach was the best part of the holiday. Would like to come back and spend more days at Batu Ferringhi Beach.

Beach for locals
Sand and sea remain the same with muddy waters though European charter flights seem to have diminished as the whole formerly luxury resort area has long ago lost it's charm. Some basic budget eateries can be found serving locals who even camp out with tents on the beach as it is public all along. I am staying at Tanjung Bungah with a much nicer beach not listed correctly on this site.
