Teluk Duyung , Pulau Pinang


















Teluk Duyung is a broad bay protected by the Muka Head cape. It is the most popular beach among tourists. Teluk Duyung is also popularly known as Muka Head and is also being referred to as the Monkey Beach. It is private land, at one time cultivated with coconuts and durians. A burial ground of at least 60 years old resembles that of Indonesian's Acheh, which could make interesting historical research.

To Get There
A nice walking trail with cemented bridges over small ravines. At normal pace, it would take about 2 hours to reach Teluk Duyung from Teluk Tukun. Larger boats would be able to reach here only during high tide.
