Discover the Untamed Beauty of Penang National Park

Getting There

• Car

  If you're driving, head towards the northwest of Penang Island. From George Town, take Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah (also known as the coastal road) and follow the signs to Teluk Bahang. Continue on this road, passing through several small towns and scenic views until you reach the entrance of Penang National Park. The park's main entrance is located at the end of Jalan Hassan Abbas, where you will find the visitor center. Parking is available near the entrance, but please note there may be a small parking fee.

• Public Bus

  You can take the Rapid Penang bus service, specifically Bus 101 or Bus 102 from George Town. Board the bus at any of the designated bus stops in the city center. The bus will take you through various parts of the island and drop you off at the Teluk Bahang bus terminal. From there, you can walk to the entrance of Penang National Park, which is approximately a 15-minute walk. Ensure to check the bus schedule in advance as it may vary, especially on weekends.

• Taxi or Ride-Hailing Service

  Using a taxi or ride-hailing service like Grab can be a convenient option. Simply input 'Penang National Park' or 'Jalan Hassan Abbas' as your destination. This service will pick you up from your location in Penang Island and drop you off directly at the park entrance. The fare may vary depending on your starting location, so it's advisable to check the estimated price in the app before confirming your ride.

• Boat

  For a scenic route, consider taking a boat from the nearby beaches such as Teluk Bahang or Batu Ferringhi. While this option may not be as direct, it provides a unique experience. You can hire a local fisherman or join a boat tour that includes a visit to the park. Ensure to negotiate the price and confirm the drop-off point at the park's beach area.
