Sunsets, Seafood & Scooters: A 3-Day Escape to Lumut & Pangkor Island

Itinerary Day 1: Arrived in Lumut in the afternoon. Spent some time exploring the town and the Lumut Waterfront Esplanade. It's a peaceful area to enjoy the sunset and get a feel for the local vibe. Grabbed dinner at a seaside seafood restaurant. Day 2: Took a morning ferry to Pangkor Island. Rented a bike and toured the island, stopping by attractions like the Dutch Fort and Fu Lin Kong Temple. Relaxed at Teluk Nipah Beach and enjoyed some fresh seafood for lunch. Returned to Lumut by evening. Day 3: Visited the local market for souvenirs. Had a relaxing brunch at a local café before checking out. Stopped at the Naval Base Museum (Muzium TLDM) on the way back for a quick visit—great for history lovers! 🏨 Accommodation Stayed at [Hotel Name], which was conveniently located near the waterfront. Clean rooms, friendly staff, and a great view if you opt for the sea-facing rooms. Ideal for short stays. 🍴 Food Recommendations Capri Restaurant: Great for seafood with a view. Warung Puteri: A local favorite for traditional Malay dishes. Daddy’s Café (Pangkor): A charming beachfront café on Pangkor Island. 📌 Tips Bring cash—some places still don’t accept cards. The ferry to Pangkor runs regularly, but check the schedule in advance. Rent a bike or motorbike on the island for convenience. Early mornings and evenings are the best times to explore due to the heat. Don’t miss trying local snacks like satay and keropok lekor.
