2025 Bintulu Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

🇲🇾 Bintulu is located in Sarawak, East Malaysia. It was originally a small fishing village, but after the discovery of abundant natural resources, gas, and oil, it quickly became a world-famous industrial town. 🗺️ Although Bintulu has oil and natural gas, it does not have the explosive prosperity and luxury of Dubai. The pace of life is slow, leaving only a sense of tranquility and simplicity. 🏖️ From the city to the seaside, feel the romance of the blue moment. Wake up every sleeping cell with your steps. The morning light is intoxicating, and the scenery along the way makes me forget my fatigue. I can run back and forth for more than ten kilometers without getting tired. 🌄 The sunset in Bintulu is beautiful, with a sky full of red clouds and a gradient sky of pink and blue-purple. When the sun kisses the horizon for the last time, the night gently takes over the afterglow. We are moved by the scene in front of us.

#malaysiatrip If you're in the the driving distance from Bintulu - including Miri where I am currently working at, this National Park is definitely worth the visit if you have the time to 1) drive to Bintulu 2) have an entire day to spend trekking and chilling at the beautiful beach at the end of the trekking. The trekking is fairly simple, but it's more challenging in the distance. It requires trekking for around 9km one way to reach the Turtle Beach II. And a little further to reach Golden Beach - which I haven't been to. I have been here three times now, and for all three times, the landscape of Turtle Beach II greatly differs depending on the weather and the season. When the time is right: sunny weather, and not monsoon season, the water is a pleasant surprise : pristine clear.

#malaysia If you’re on the lookout for another place to add to your cafe-hopping list, look no further! The Coffee Code, a popular cafe in Sarawak, Borneo, Malaysia. Established in multiple locations across Sarawak, this cafe is supporting rtminimalistic, neutral-toned interior, this cafe is great for those who love IG-worthy aesthetics. Look forward to a selection of house-roasted coffee, bread, and an assortment of unique waffles.

#bucketlistreboot #syukurnikmat #staycation Belaga is widely considered to be one of the best places to start explorations of the Sarawak interio. It is a small town located on the river near to many local communities and longhouse villages. It’s less than 100km from the South China Sea coast and has a population of under 50,000 – small but with a burgeoning tourist industry. When it comes to food, you’re not going to be able to find extensive western and international menus in this tiny community, but you will be able to find tasty local food at good prices. Your best bet is to go with local recommendations, but generally of all the cafes in town you’ll see that most have similar menus and pricing. Most of the food is traditional Malay cuisine, so expect plenty of tasty noodles with meat and vegetables. If you visit one of the longhouse communities you may even get the chance to taste some more obscure and unusual dishes, such as jungle fern and wild boar, which are prepared in the traditional ways of the tribes people.

Belaga District is one of the most remote and largest districts in Sarawak with a size area of ​​19,403.27 sq km, where mega Bakun Hydro Project (BHP) is situated. BHP is projected to supply cheap electricity power for the country and even being proposed to be exported to neighbor countries like Brunei, Indonesia and even to Thailand. Belaga District is part of Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy (SCORE), encompassing an area of ​​70,000 sq km. Belaga District is also home-to-be the largest water catchments area in South East Asia when Bakun Hydro Dam project completes sometime in 2011, that supply 2400 mw of electricity power. The artificial lake will stretches up the upper Balui River, Murum River, Linau River and many medium size of rivers and streams that will form a lake that is bigger than island of Singapore. Immediately beyond the artificial lake, visitors can see beautiful lowland mixed dipterocarp forest, with drooping trees overhanging the rivers. River transport is the main mode of communication here. The rivers are fast flowing and during dry periods, the water level gets quite low and visitors can pleasingly enjoy spectacular beautiful scenery nature. Over and beyond the wealth Belaga derives from its land, however, are its people, its single richest asset. Its many ethnics groups, more than 15 in all and that is only the official figure, combine to lend Belaga a uniqueness that is all its own. The result is a colorful stew pot of culture, heritage and tradition. #syukurnikmat #awesomepic #passionpassport

Kampung Jepak in Bintulu Kampung Jepak is a traditional fishermen village where majority of the inhabitants are Melanaus (Bintulu Melanaus) and Malays. It is separated from the main town of Bintulu by Sungai Kemena. You may be mesmerized by the traditional feature and lifestyle of Bintulu Melanau such as sago processing, fish drying, manufacturing of belacan (shrimps paste), cencaluk (salted shrimps), making of Terendak (Melanau Headgear) and Tutop (food cover or "tudung sarang / tudung saji"). One can get to Kampung Jepak by tambang (from main town of Bintulu) or via road from Bintulu-Sibu road (exit to Kuala Tatau/Kampung Jepak). #syukurnikmat #perjalanankehidupan

I made in 1-night over in Bintulu during my trip in Sarawak. It was a fishing village that boomed after the discovery of gas fields off the coast. If I were not a chemical geek, I would not come here. On a sunny day, you can see gas exploration sites in the sea and Bintulu Port and LNG terminal in Kidurong from the left side of the plane before landing. Unless you use it as a base for jungle expeditions, I feel nothing special for tourists really but it's not boring at all. If you don't have car, you can visit the 100+ years old Tua Pek Kong Temple, the waterfront with The Spring mall nearby, and the night market in a day. The Old Town itself near the waterfront is an attraction containing shophouses.

Extended Holiday is upon us. Hurray.. I have decided to visit Bintulu for few days during this Gawai Festival. This is the first big celebration of Gawai Festival after 2 years interruption of covid pandemic. Things are slowly moving toward normalcy. It will be a big celebration with lots of tuak (locally brewed rice wine) consumed. I wasn’t a good drinker, so I decided to make a pass this year and headed to Bintulu to meet a long lost friend. Bintulu is a modern oil and gas town. It has among the world biggest oil and gas terminal in the world. Bintulu town is constantly changing and now has so many hotels and restaurants to cater for the oil and gas and heavy industries. Sometime quiet times with friends in a nice restaurant and have a casual drink is most enjoyable and it brought back so much memory of the good old days. My friend booked me a room at New world suite hotel. I guess I could have a good night sleep tonight ..zzzz
