Coral Beach (Perak) is located outside the Pangkor Island settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Pangkor island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Coral Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

"Coral Beach is the perfect spot to unwind and take a refreshing dip in the water. If you're fortunate enough to spot some turtles, it's an added bonus! The beach itself is absolutely stunning, with crystal-clear waters and a serene atmosphere. It's the ideal place to kick back and soak up the sun."

Andguill Mac

"I absolutely adored the beach at this location. It was impeccably clean and undoubtedly the most picturesque spot in Pangkor to catch a breathtaking sunset. The lack of crowds, particularly in the morning, made for a serene and peaceful atmosphere. I spent countless hours lounging on the sand, enjoying the tranquil ambiance and the soothing sounds of the waves, birds, and ru..."
