Attraction and Infrastructure

As for the main features of the beaches of Sarawak, they are as follows:

  • The region's beaches are mainly narrow, moderate length and have a medium level of cleanliness. The most common surface is sand of bright color.
  • Usually, entry into the water is gentle, which is very good for kids. There are 26 such beaches.
  • An important clarification, 5 beaches in the region have a long intertidal zone, which means that during low tide hours you may have to travel a considerable distance. This is also something to consider if you don't want to suddenly be in the water at high tide.
  • The average distance from the road to beach in Sarawak is less than 500 meters. 21 beaches are relatively easy to access, 1 beach are difficult to access, which in most cases means that you have to walk a quite long distance, and 5 beaches are only accessible from the water. The latter include both island beaches and beaches with no land routes due to the natural borders.

Wild beaches with no infrastructure dominate the coastline of Sarawak however, even here you can find a beach with a standard set of accessories: sun beds, umbrellas, restaurants, showers and toilets.

Latest reviews on Sarawak's beaches

Turtle Beach
6 Lukas K.

Turtle Beach I is a picturesque destination that boasts crystal-clear waters and pristine sandy shores.

Lutong Beach
2 Maxim Yegorov

This beach is not suitable for swimming, and it falls short of being a desirable destination. While it may be marginally cleaner than the one near Central Park, the water's color is still the same murky shade reminiscent of Pu erh tea. Overall, this beach is a disappointment and not worth visiting.

Finding hotels in relative proximity to the beaches is usually fine. Many beaches have enough nearby accommodation, which gives good opportunities to choose the right place to stay.

Do you know how many beaches there are in Sarawak? In total there are 27 beaches and the most popular is Telok Pandan Kecil.
