Penanjong Beach

Penanjong Beach is located in Penanjong, a small village in Brunei's northeast, just a few kilometers from the city of Tutong. The beach is the major attraction in the community, which has a population of fewer than 2500 people. Penanjong Beach, by the way, is more popular with tourists than with natives.

Penanjong Beach is a long stretch of snow-white sand flanked on one side by lush green palm trees and on the other by the roaring sea. The beach is covered in sand, and the sand in this section of Brunei has a fine dispersion and a pleasant texture. The color of the sand changes depending on the time of day: on a bright sunny day, it has pearl tones, while on cloudy days and later in the evening, it has a light yellow hue with gold inclusions. Penanjong Beach's water is an astonishing color: near the coast, it's clear with a turquoise hue, and as you go deeper, the water turns blue, with a smooth transition to deep blue. The sea and the sky combine into an organic whole on the horizon, creating an infinite effect. The sunsets on the beach of Penanjong have become a major Brunei tourist attraction on the South China Sea coast as a result of this natural phenomena. The entrance to the sea is slanted and shallow, and the bottom is free of algae and stones. Penanjong beach is known for its intentionally formed ledges in the sea that act as miniature breakwaters, calming fast waves.

Families with children, ecotourism aficionados, and water sports enthusiasts can all rest in comfort thanks to the well-developed beach infrastructure.
