Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
In 2023, it is accessible for long vehicle by the way near small lake.
This place is no longer accessible. At the end of the paved road is a big fence.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
corner completely accessible to large vehicles (our is more than 7 meters long and 3.20 meters high). almost feet in the sand with shade. a few young people came to make firecrackers and a few comings and goings of 2 wheels but overall a nice and sometimes ventilated place. on the other hand, the sea is not very clean.
Report Check-InThis place is no longer accessible. At the end of the paved road is a big fence.
Report Check-InAny big rig higher than 3.5m is liable to damages to the upper body and the roof ... if somebody cuts the branches on the firs couple of 100m or so it‘d definitely be a nice place for every kind of camping car ... other wise just up to ‚small‘ big rigs 😉
Report Check-InI would not go as far as saying anyone can get here, but it is worth the effort and the scratches on the roof.
You have to turn off the road onto a non-descript, un-paved, narrow road with some low-hanging tree-branches (only the first 100 meters).
When you reach a junction, keep right.
It is a nice beach with plenty of shaded parking-spots.
Reasonably clean (superb for Malaysia standards)
Lots of motorcycle-cruzing at the end of the day (Wednesday).
Stayed 2 nights without much disturbance. On Sunday night some youths came by on motorbikes and fired of some fireworks but left after about 30 minutes. Fairly nice beach and quiet. Many parking options including for big rigs.
Report Check-InVery nice spot directly at the beach, as described above. The night was very quiet and the trees offer protection from the sun in the morning.
Report Check-InThis is a public beach accessible by road. As you may know by now, we are a 7.5 m normal campervan so basically anyone can come here if we did :) there is a huge flat area to park under many trees and completely beachfront. There is some trash here and there although there are lots of trash bins.
There is an excellent family run seafood restaurant that close around 7pm. Then there is no one but some fishermen and the night was very quiet, Only the sound of the waves.
Apparently it gets crowded on weekend but only with locals.
