Blue Lagoon
  • Tip Rating:
  • Located at the 11th mile of PD's coastal road, the Blue Lagoon is tucked away from the main road and far from the crowds.

    This beach hideaway is naturally shapped like a cresscent, offering a breathtaking view of the surrounding greenery and the Straits of Melaka from here. During low tide, it is possible to stroll out on its fine sand for about 200 meters towards the receeding blue sea.

    As it is a quiet and secluded spot, it is a favourite haunt for those seeking peace and calm, ideal for long walks and restful picnics. The lagoon is favored for swimming, boating, wind surfing and water skiing.

    Close to its vicinity is the historical Tanjung Tuan lighthouse and the Royal Rest House of the Yang Di-Pertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan (the Ruler of Negeri Sembilan). During the migratory season, it is possible to watch flights of migratory sea birds wheeling along the shore here in Blue Lagoon.

    Teluk Kemang Beach
  • Tip Rating:
  • Teluk Kemang beach is the most popular beach for weekend visitors to PD among the other beaches along the 18km strech of PD's coastline.

    It is not suprising then as Teluk Kemang is quite touristy and has better facilities as compare to the other beaches. Apart from the usual eateries and changing/shower roam commonly found in most beaches, PD's town square with a Tourist Information Centre and open air stage are also located here. For accomodations, there are plenty of hotels and chalets in Teluk Kemang vicinity - some of them are just walking distance to the beach.

    This can either be a must see activity tip or an accomodation tip.

    The Avillion Village Resort could be added to the must see places in PD, even if its just for a short look-see visit. As PD's only resort build almost entirely on stilts, the ambience and view from its reception area to its resort is quite interesting. While here, check out the various displays of Negeri Sembilan culture and tradition stuffs scattered all over the resort, such as the bullock cart and the musical instruments for Cak Lempong.

    Another resort on stilts is currently under cosntruction in PD but I doubt it will be as interesting as Avillion Village Resort.

    There are plenty of water based activities to do in Teluk Kemang.

    Apart from swimming at the sea, beach goers can enjoy the banana boat ride or canoeing. For more adventurous stuff, you can try the jet-ski rides, water- skiing and para sailing. If you want to venture further, you can hire speedboat to go to other nearby beaches and small islands along the coastline of PD.

    Unfortunately the sea here is not really suitable for snorkelling.

    Pantai Saujana beach
  • Tip Rating:
  • Though not as popular as Teluk Kemang, Pantai Saujana beach do attract its own crowd particularly from guests of nearby hotels and resorts in its vicinity.

    Located at the 3rd mile of the coastal road of PD, the beach is close to Hotel Seri Malaysia and Avillion Village Resort - currently PD's only resort built on stilt over the sea. Something interesting here is the replica of various giant size sea creatures (crab, prawn etc) that decorated stalls and kiosks along the beach.

    Wan Loong Temple
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Wan Loong Temple is located along PD's coastal road.

    Literally means "Dragon in the Sky", the temple is no doubt the bigest and most beautiful temple in PD. Looking stunning from the top of a hill, the "Great Wall" like retaining wall circling the temple and its location give it an impression of a secluded private premise that is not open to the outside world.

    PD Town Square
  • Tip Rating:
  • Located at Teluk Kemang beach, PD Town Square is the main venue that play host to most of the beach resort's ceremonial activities, such as the annual Port Dickson Festival and new years eve countdown party.

    At the square, there is a Tourist information Office, stage for performances, open air arena and children playground. Food and souvenier stalls are also located close to the square.

    For children (and parents who want to keep their kids away from the beach), they can always enjoy either the horse, bicylce or miniature 4WD rides at the square.

    Sun tanning anyone?
  • Tip Rating:
  • As Pantai Cermin beach is not that suitable for swimming, there is a sun deck here to make up for what it is lack off.

    So if you think of getting some tan, heads to Pantai Cermin and enjoy the tanning session in this secluded beach. Apart from the sun deck, there's a few BBQ pit scattered along the beach for those who want to have a BBQ party.

    Going to the beach doesn't really mean that you have to get wet here in Pantai Cermin.
