Fishermen's wharf along Sungai Bayan Lepas (28 February 2016)
Permatang Damar Laut Fishermen's Wharf (GPS: 5.28158, 100.25653) is a riverine pier along Sungai Bayan Lepas in Permatang Damar Laut, Penang. This is the place where coastal and estuarine fishermen bring in their catch. There is a simple concrete wharf. Near the wharf is a coffee shop for the fishermen to hang out after a day's work.
A rural path skirts the side of Sungai Bayan Lepas, connecting the fishermen's wharf to the main road. There is also a Malay village with clusters of houses, some of them hugging close to the shore. To prevent erosion, an enforcement of rocks have been placed along the coast.
The Permatang Damar Laut Coast is a stretch of mudflats. Standing like forlorn sentinels along the coast are two World War II pillboxes. One of these have slipped into the water and is in an advanced stage of disrepair, while the other, roughly midway down the coast, is still well preserved.

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.
