Pasir BogakPasir Bogak So the claim was interesting claim and thus I had no choice to sort out of it was true. After arriving at Pulau Pangkor I cycled (sorry, I always cycle since I live here nearby and I love cycling) from the Pangkor jetty at Pangkor Town to Pasir Bogak. It was anyway just a few kilometers away. ![]() Pasir Bogak, largest swimming pool in the world? It is a lovely place I passed the police station, always good to know in case you need it. Then I saw the Coral Bay Resort. It's a big white building on your left hand. A bit further there was a little market. All kind of things you need at the beach were sold here. There was even a mini market for your ice-cream, cold drinks and snacks. Some excellent food stalls can be found there too. Later more on this subject. Some vendors have cool and fresh green coconuts for sale. As a way to kill your thirst, I would recommend it. Some good fruits can be found here too. Pineapples and rambutan are always good and tasty.
Next to the market there is the Sri Bayu hotel and resort. Later more on the both mentioned hotels. First however, I went to the beach. It is a long stretch of white sand and bright waters. Not for nothing the beach is in Malaysia quite popular. Coconut palm trees are right on the beach and give you some protection (if you need it) from the midday sun. The beach is indeed a few kilometers long stretch of sand. It wasn't difficult to find a quiet place to have a cool swim. After all, cycling did make me sweat a bit. The water was warm, clean and not too deep so if you come with children, it's a safe place to let them play in the water. I liked the view in front of me. From here you watch Pangkor Laut, the exclusive resort just a mile away from Pangkor but miles away from the rest of the world when you stay there. As it goes on more
commercial beaches, some people make money with hiring boats to make a trip around the
island. You won't find a problem to rent a boat here.
Vikri Beach ResortThe first hotel I would like to mention is the Vikri Beach Resort. The hotel is located just outside the main Pasir Bogak areas right at the Pasir Bogak beach. You can't beat a place like this. The quiet surrounding with the beach in front of your chalet makes this the best deal for the best price. So in the end, did I think Pasir Bogak was the Biggest Swimming Pool in the World. It's a good beach, good facilities and yes, it might be the Biggest Swimming Pool in the World. Golden Beach Hotel and Resort
The hotel has a great restaurant the call the Orange Cafe. Despite there is no air-conditioning in the cafe, it's all day comfortably cool. Since the hotel and restaurant are a bit away from the main road, it's a quiet and nice, especially in the evenings. And I have to admit, I was impressed with Golden Sands. Clean, good staff and comfortable. Highly recommended if you want to stay at Pasir Bogak.
