Learn more about Balik Pulau

Escape the bustle of George Town at Balik Pulau's countryside, where durian orchards and fishing villages offer a glimpse into Penang's rural charm. Cycle through rice paddies, sample local fruits at roadside stalls, and visit the nutmeg farms where farmers will show you their traditional harvesting techniques.

Penang National Park is incredibly beautiful and a great place to take a hike. The reward is finding yourself on a fairly secluded beach where you can unwind and take a dip. Malaysia does a pretty good job with their national parks - keeping them mostly undeveloped and so forth. We hiked from the park entrance to Turtle beach and ended up catching a boat back rather than hiking back. By taking the boat, we were able to enjoy seeing the remote coastal areas of the park where trails do not go. Tip: wear real shoes and not flip-flops. It is a hike after all. (not that we would have made that mistake, right?)
