Pantai Cenang or Cenang beach definitely tops the chart. It is a vibrant beach town located near the airport. You can get there with just 10 minutes driving. Upon reaching, you will feel the sea breeze and warm sunshine.

 

A long stretch of shops, restaurants, bars can be found along the main road. We would recommend you to visit it in the late afternoon for a short walk, chill at the bar and wait for the stunning sunset. Cenang beach gets livelier at the night time.
