Penang National Park

The Penang National Park was established in 2003 and is one of the smallest national parks in Malaysia. It covers an area of 1,213ha and is located in the remote northwestern part of Penang Island. The park consist of pristine coastal rainforest, mangroves, mudflats and beaches.
About 190 bird species exist in this remote and pristine park. One of the most well-known birds here is the White-belled Sea Eagle, which breed in the park, especially around the Muka Head area. They are frequently seen soaring and displaying in the hill forests facing the sea. If you are lucky, you might get to observe their soaring skills and aerial combats.
Trails of varying difficulties are available at Teluk Bahang, Teluk Tukun, Tanjung Aling, Pantai Kerachut and Teluk Ketapang. The park is open daily from 8am to 6pm.
