Lumut & Pangkor - Undisputed Duo





If you guys love the sea, sun and sands; this is the great escapade for all of you. Why I’m saying so? For the long time ago, Lumut was formally a small fishing town, 84KM from Ipoh. But in the presence, it is now a well known for its clean, beautiful and sandy beach and tourism centre. 



Despite being the popular site of shell collections, coral handicrafts and seafood centre, Lumut is located not far from Pangkor Island. Tourist frequently visited there by taking a boat or mini-ferry approximately about half an hour journey. The cost is really affordable which is only RM10 per return.





Descended from the Thai word ‘Pang Ko’, which means ‘beautiful island’, Pangkor Island is an ideal flee for anyone who seeks solitude and peace of mind from frantic city living. There are even fixie for rent, which you can take a laid-back ride around the island, and partake, in a wide range of sun and sea activities such as fishing and snorkeling.




Pangkor Island is one of the most famous island holiday destinations in Malaysia for its tranquil beaches, crystalline blue waters and panoramic sunsets dusk after dusk. On one occasion, in the 17th century, the Dutch built a fort on the island to better oversee the tin trade industry in Perak. Today, the remains of the Dutch Fort still stand for visiting tourists to stop by. It became the fetish for apiece tourist that is visiting here every year.
