Pasir Panjang, Beach on southwestern coast of Penang Island, Malaysia.
The 400-meter sandy shoreline faces the Straits of Malacca, with waves breaking against scattered rock formations along the beach front.
The beach area transformed from a small fishing settlement with traditional huts into the location of Kem Bina Negara military training facility.
Local families gather at this beach during weekends for swimming and fishing activities, maintaining traditional coastal community practices.
Access requires private transportation as no public buses reach the beach, with a 12-kilometer drive southwest from Balik Pulau town.
The National Service Training Centre positioned behind the beach provides a watchtower overlooking the entire coastline.
