Getting There

  If you are in Danga Bay, start by making your way to the nearest main road, Jalan Danga, which runs parallel to the waterfront. From there, head northeast along Jalan Danga until you reach the junction with Jalan Kolam Air. This should take approximately 15-20 minutes on foot, depending on your starting point in Danga Bay. Once you reach Jalan Kolam Air, turn right and continue walking straight. After about 500 meters, you will see the Coronation Arch on your left. Look for the distinctive arch structure as it is a prominent landmark.

• Public Bus

  Alternatively, you can take a local bus to reach Coronation Arch. From any location within Danga Bay, walk to the nearest bus stop on Jalan Danga. Look for bus services that head towards Bukit Serene. A commonly available bus is the 'Bus No. 33'. The fare is approximately RM 2.00. Once on the bus, stay on until you reach the stop at Bukit Serene. Disembark and walk down Jalan Kolam Air for about 10 minutes, and you will find the Coronation Arch on your right side.

  For a more convenient method, consider using a ride-sharing service such as Grab. Open the app and set your pickup location in Danga Bay, then enter 'Jalan Kolam Air, Bukit Serene' as your destination. The fare may vary depending on traffic but expect it to be around RM 10-15.
