Try Out a Unique Reflexology Path
Lapped by the gentle waters of the Straits of Malacca, Pengkalan Balak Beach is perfect for a family getaway with a host of activities such as swimming, long walks by the beach, camping out, or simply enjoying a beautiful sunset.
The stretch of beach here invites sun-seekers to sink their feet into its golden sands and tiny pebbles. As they say, walking barefoot by the beach is a wonderful way to de-stress while enjoying the waves and the breeze. What’s more, sand provides resistance, making barefoot walking a great workout for the arches and leg muscles. Plus, sand acts as a natural exfoliant—so kick off those sandals and enjoy the sensation.
Pengkalan Balak Beach also offers tranquil views of nearby fishing villages and is surrounded by plenty of seafood restaurants. The only real challenge here is choosing from the enormous variety of mouth-watering dishes available. Thanks to its coastal location and proximity to fishing communities, fresh seafood is always the highlight.
Pengkalan Balak is situated in the district of Alor Gajah, approximately 10 km from Masjid Tanah, making it an easy and enjoyable coastal stop in Melaka.
