A beach resort just outside of popular George Town, Batu Ferringhi was originally better known as a water sports destination (sunset horseback riding and parasailing are still popular here), but the seafront and its beautiful long stretch of white sand have become a popular destination for all sun lovers.
Because of its proximity to a major city, the area attracts many local residents looking for a weekend getaway-but it's also a great place to visit for travelers who want to catch the waves but don't have time to make it out to the islands.
The well-developed beach here offers plenty of eating options, a quiet nightlife that mostly consists of live music and laid-back cafés, and a lively night market that sells everything from inexpensive souvenirs to traditional batik textiles.
