Pantai Batu Buruk is the city beach, popular with families and, unfortunately, litter bugs. It’s not the best beach in Malaysia given the strong winds and rips, but it’s pretty nonetheless. Across the road is the Cultural Centre Stage ; check with the tourist office to see if any shows are lined up. A taxi from town should be around RM15 or it’s a 20-minute walk. Friday's night market is definitely worth a look for travelling foodies.
