Teluk Air Tawar, Butterworth, Penang

Teluk Air Tawar (11 December 2017)

Teluk Air Tawar (GPS: 5.47822, 100.38339) is a coastal suburb of Butterworth in Seberang Perai Utara. Its name means "fresh water bay". It is a quiet seaside suburb with excellent views of George Town across the channel. The main road through the area is also called Jalan Teluk Air Tawar.

Teluk Air Tawar was the site of the Butterworth Royal Air Force Base. As such, there is a bit of noise pollution here caused by the taking off and landing of fighter jets. There has been some residential development such as Taman Seri Senangan with semi-detached bungalows for those who want the land area for a price unobtainable elsewhere in Penang.

Other housing estates in Teluk Air Tawar includes Taman Perwira, Taman Robina, Taman Telok Molek, Taman Pahlawan and Taman Aman Bayu. The post code here is 13050 Butterworth.

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
