Penang Family Holidays
The small but perfectly formed island of Penang makes a rewarding choice for a family holiday. It offers beautiful beaches, an interesting mix of cultural and historical sites, and a good selection of family-friendly resorts. All this combined with a dynamic capital and the mouth-watering local cuisine makes for a well-rounded family beach break.
Things to do on a Penang family holiday
Some of Penang’s best beaches can be found on the island’s north coast. Batu Ferringhi Beach is one of the most popular stretches, with lots of facilities and family friendly dining options. There are a host of water sports to choose from and its night market is not to be missed.
Sometimes referred to as the ‘Pearl of the Orient’, Penang has plenty of other charms besides glorious beaches. The island’s distinctive culture and heritage stems from Malay, Chinese, Indian and British influences. An old British colony, there are some interesting colonial sites worth exploring in the capital city, George Town.
The whole family will enjoy exploring the Penang National Park by boat and on foot. The nearby island of PulauJerejak is another gem, with beautiful cycling routes and jungle walks. In Penang you can expect to taste some of the best food in Malaysia, if not the whole of Asia; consider taking a tasting tour of the food stalls in George Town.
