Teluk Ketapang

Teluk Ketapang, Pangkor (21 September 2020)


Teluk Ketapang (GPS: 4.22019, 100.54478) is a beach in Pangkor Island, Perak. It is between Teluk Nipah in the north and Pantai Pasir Bogak in the south. The bay is named after the ketapang tree (Terminalia catappa). Teluk Ketapang is also called Tortoise Bay, because it is a site where sea tortoises come up to lay eggs.

There is limited development at Teluk Ketapang. There is a dilapidated pier here - at the time I revisited in Sept 2020, the roof was coming off. The beach also has a look out point built to resemble the Kuala Kangsar Pavilion Square Tower.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
