Tanjung Bidara
Edit This Tanjung Bidara, 35 km north of Malacca town, is one of Malacca's
popular beach resorts. A beach with swaying casuarinas and fine white
sand, its cove is perfectly suited for swimming and a host of water
sports. There are also numerous shade trees for cosy picnics. Add to
these attractions, the journey through Malacca's scenic countryside
of swaying padi fields and Malay kampung houses and Tanjung Bidara is
a serene hideaway worth visiting.

Pantai Kundur
Edit ThisPantai Kundur, a small fishing village, is approximately seventeen kilometers from Malacca. This beach is a favorite spot for swimming and picnicking, but it is perhaps best known for its graceful form of night-fishing. Fishermen suspend their nets from poles near their kelongs (houses built on stilts over the water) and periodically lower them to net a passing shoal.
