Just 35 minutes from Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Malaysia’s Sepang Gold Coast is a perfect place to rest and unwind. While its Formula One racetrack steals the spotlight, the beaches, rainforests and outdoor activities make this an ideal place to experience the best of Malaysia at any time.
Our Golden Palm Tree Iconic Resort & Spa offers luxurious over-water villas that are meticulously laid out in the shape of a giant palm tree. Stretching
almost a kilometre into the sheltered Strait of Malacca, it offers everything from adventure activities to full spa facilities and guarantees you a luxury holiday unlike any other. Three- and four-night stays are available.
Adventure time on Sepang
rev your engines
No Sepang holiday is complete without a visit to its Formula One racetrack and adjoining National Automobile Museum. Here you can view classic cars, learn about the circuit and hear stories from its many motoring events. Entry is free and the museum is open 9 am–6 pm daily.
Linger on Lover’s Bridge
By far the most spectacular spot to watch the sun dip into the sea, this bridge juts in to the sea and
is held together with a mix of concrete and, the further out you go, simple wooden planks. Watch fisherman reel in their daily haul, then grab a seat as nature puts on its finest show.
Tour the river
Discover the wealth of flora and fauna dotting the Sepang River as you putter along this mighty waterway in a wooden boat. Once you’ve finished spotting monkeys, otters and waterbirds, refuel on ikan bakar, a grilled fish specialty offered at the seafood restaurants dotting the shoreline.
