Go straight till the end of Batu Ferringhi, and you will find the Craft Batik factory. Look at how Batik is being made, and you can buy some batik products fresh from the oven. Leave the Batik factory and drive stright till you reach the roundabout, take the 12 o'clock direction; you will be heading to Teluk Bahang, a fishing village.

Look at what the fisherman's life is like in the morning, when every household is heading to the sea for their living. There is a newly developed National Park next to the village, too. Register yourself at the little hut, and you can start trekking in the jungle. Enjoy the flora and fauna, and the stream and waterfall along the way. If you finish up the trekking path which takes you 3 hours, you will reach the light house!

From the Teluk Bahang, outside the mosque, it is 20km to Balik Pulau. Go past the Orchard Farm where orchid lovers should stroll through, then the Rimba Rekreasi Teluk Bahan Jabatan Hutan--the Forestry Museum and Arboretum--as well as the Butterfly Farm, which are all located on the left.
