The Bayan Lepas Waterfall (GPS: 5.29996, 100.25941) is a small waterfall just outside the town of Bayan Lepas. The waterfall is located on Sungai Air Terjun behind the Mutiara Perdana low-cost flats and the Lembaga Urusan Tabung Haji complex.
The area around the waterfall has been landscaped and beautified by the local waterway department. A bridge is built across the cascades. The bank has also been paved so that vehicles can enter and make a U-turn to come out. There is also a wooden pavilion where you can go and have a picnic while you enjoy the scenery of the waterfall.
The Bayan Lepas Waterfall itself has a height of about 5 meters. It cascades down the smooth rocks to empty into a pool where swimming is possible. A retaining wall is built to form the pool. From there, the water continues its way down the stream to form Sungai Bayan Lepas which flows through the Bayan Lepas pekan enroute to Permatang Damar Laut, where it is discharged into the sea.
The Bayan Lepas Waterfall is a serene place for locals to go, to find some serenity and greenery. One can simply sit by the bank of the river, and listen to the water as it cascades down to the pool. It is a good place to visit on a hot day.
You can go to the Bayan Lepas Waterfall by private vehicle or by bus. You can take the Rapid Penang bus 302 or 308 to Jalan Dato Ismail Hashim. Alight at the bus stop next to Sekolah Kebangsaan Bayan Lepas. Look for the signboard pointing to the waterfall on the north side of Jalan Dato Ismail Hashim.
The Bayan Lepas Waterfall can be reached via a small lane that passes through the village houses of Bayan Lepas. Although the path is small, there is a bay for two cars to pass each other. On the way in, you pass by banana groves and a few sukun and jackfruit trees. The waterfall is about 400 meters from the main road.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
