Sights in Penang : Sungai Satu Outfall
The Sungai Satu outfall is one of Malaysia’s first two sea outfalls at Batu Ferringhi beach. Stretching 120 meters out into the sea from Sungai Satu and Sungai Batu Ferringhi, these structures are designed to channel river water into the sea while also acting as scenic viewing platforms for visitors. Positioned 300 meters apart and standing two meters high, the outfalls will allow beachgoers to enjoy panoramic sea views, with waves reaching the top steps during high tide.
