The beach offers a fantastic view and refreshing breeze, and it's a pleasant surprise that Kuching still has such a spot. There's a small entrance fee of 5MYR per person, but children can enter for free. The beach is quite long and allows for driving, but be cautious of children. While there is a public toilet available, it's not top-notch. It's advisable to bring your own food and tent, as the sun can be scorching. Please remember to take your trash with you when you leave.

The beach charges an entrance fee of RM15 for a 7 seater car. The view of the beach is impressive and the water is relatively clean, earning it a 5-star rating. However, there are some trashes hidden at the back of the beach, resulting in a deduction of 2 marks. It would be better if the management could clean up the trash or provide some rubbish bins.

The beach exudes tranquility and boasts of stunning natural beauty, although visitors are required to pay an entrance fee per car. However, the facilities provided are not up to par.

Kuching's beach boasts one of the most stunning sunset views and is definitely among the best. However, the road leading to the beach is not well-paved and there is an entrance fee of RM10 (as of May 10, 2022).

4 Frustrating

You have to pay RM15 to enter, but once you're inside, there's not much to see besides the beach. Unfortunately, the beach is quite dirty due to all the trash that washes up on shore, and it doesn't seem to be well-maintained. However, it's very peaceful and could be a good spot for a date.
