Latest reviews on Pahang's beaches

Beserah Beach
10 Amani Zahra

If it's a sunny day, it's best to be cautious about dehydration, but don't worry because there are plenty of food stalls available.

Batu Hitam Mandurah Beach
10 Nikos Athanasopoulos

This serene coastal stretch is a fantastic spot to witness the magnificent sunrise. The beach is fairly expansive, offering ample space for a leisurely stroll or a refreshing jog by the shore.

Balok Beach
10 Kara Hunter.

What a delightful spot! It's not overrun with tourists, so you can actually enjoy the sand and surf without feeling like a sardine. Plus, it's perfect for little ones to frolic in the waves. I can't wait to return and soak up more of this idyllic seaside setting.

Mawar Beach
10 Z X (Rotkehlchen)

Unfortunately, there were no available rooms at Nazri1 in Tioman during our stay. The place appears to be in good condition, and the beach is excellent. The restaurant on-site is definitely worth checking out, as they serve very good food. I had the opportunity to stay there twice, in 1982 and 1985, and I have fond memories of Nazri's place, which was one of the few establishments that offered room rentals.

Chendor Beach
6 Landon Jansen

This beach offers a picturesque backdrop for capturing breathtaking photos. Its natural beauty is truly mesmerizing, making it a perfect spot for photography enthusiasts. Whether you're looking to capture the golden hues of the sunset or the crystal-clear waters of the ocean, this beach will not disappoint. With its pristine sands and serene atmosphere, it's no wonder why this beach is a popular destination for nature lovers and photographers alike.

Cempaka Beach
8 Aria Lee

This beach is a peaceful spot to unwind, ideal for camping and picnicking.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 11 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!
