A sanctuary of tranquility

Sun, sand and sea: The beautiful beaches in and around Pangkor provide a welcome escape from the hectic pace of the city.

Pulau Pangkor stands out for a myriad of reasons – its abundant nature, its attractions, its food, as well as the hardy resilient yet friendly nature and culture of its people.

This is not to mention the island’s significant role in the country’s history, not only as the namesake of the Pangkor Treaty 1874 but also for the period before that, the remnants of which you can still see today through the 17th-century Dutch fort and the Batu Bersurat in Kampung Teluk Gedung.
