Pantai Kamloon Recreational Park (GPS: 5.56404, 100.44477) is a now disused recreational park within the wetland areas of Seberang Perai Utara. It is located at Kampung Tanjung Rambai in Kepala Batas, at the border between Penang Mainland and Kedah.
I explored Pantai Kamloon Recreational Park on 22 July, 2015. I looked at the elevated walkways that are now left to rot, railings that have fallen off and pavilions that are no longer reachable. I do not know why Pantai Kamloon was abandoned. I was told by a visitor that it used to be very popular with the locals.

The scenery at Pantai Kamloon Recreational Park is gorgeous. The area is dotted with ponds with sluice locks. There is a rusting boat (or something like it) parked by the bank of one of the ponds. A concrete wall runs parallel with the North-South Expressway. It cuts across the walkway. I do not know why this concrete wall was built and what is its purpose - is it to control flooding? Is it effective?

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.
