This isn’t just another beach — Penang’s first-ever pink sand beach is set to be one of Malaysia’s most eye-catching attractions. The soft rose-tinted sand creates a dreamy, tropical vibe that feels straight out of a postcard. Inspired by the famous pink beaches in Indonesia and the Bahamas, it’s already shaping up to be a favourite spot for families, couples, and anyone who loves taking beautiful travel photos.

What makes it even better is the experience around it. The 80,000 sq ft area will feature:

  • A kids’ play zone where little ones can have fun by the sea
  • A camping site for travellers who want to fall asleep under the stars
  • Convenient access to the Masjid Terapung Tanjung Bungah, Penang’s stunning floating mosque

Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or snap that perfect pink-sand photo, this beach promises a refreshing new way to enjoy Penang’s coastal charm.

Why It’s Perfect for a Road Trip from Singapore

A road trip from Singapore to Penang has always been popular among families and friend groups — and now, with the opening of the pink beach, it’s even more worth the drive.

Traveling by private car gives you flexibility and comfort that flights can’t match. You can stop for local food along the way, visit charming towns in Perak, or take scenic routes through Malaysia’s west coast before reaching Penang.

Many travellers also prefer private car transfers for long-distance trips like this because:

  • There’s no need to worry about multiple connections (bus, train, or flights)
  • You can travel at your own pace and make stops whenever you like
  • The ride is comfortable and private, ideal for groups or families with kids
