Gurney Drive: a long quay north of the old town, the sea on the left and houses on the right. People come for sunset, not for the temples.

Known for

The Gurney Drive promenade.

Why go

The promenade in the evening. By day the sun hits the quay, and there is little to see besides the sea.

Where to stay

Stay if you want the north and the sea from the window. The old town is not a walk from here.

The promenade runs along the sea. Pulau Tikus starts behind the houses, and it is no longer on the water.
