About 80+ kilometers east of Ipoh, Lumut town is a gateway to the beautiful Pangkor Island. Recently, Lumut was made official as the naval township with the biggest base of the Royal Malaysian Navy located there. Previously a fishing village, Lumut still benefits from the sea. Fishing and tourism are two major sources of income to the small township. Pangkor Island, which is located about 40-minute ferry ride from Lumut jetty, is now a popular tourist attraction in Perak, as well as the country. There are several most beautiful beaches in Malaysia there. With a blend of white sandy beaches, variety of seafood, and Dutch colonial history, Pangkor is definitely a strong magnet in Perak's tourism industry.
