PantaiTenangCampingHouse & Recreation
01 Quick Facts
02 🌲 The Vibe
A sleepy beach camp where the main attractions are the wide Pantai Pugu shoreline and some of the cheapest campsite rates in Sarawak.
Weekdays it can feel like a private beach; weekends it turns into a buzzing family picnic and BBQ hangout.
The five-star reviews talk about sunsets, photoshoots and beach play — the one-stars all point at the same grumpy gatekeeper.
Come with a relaxed plan, small cash for entry fees, and low expectations about polish.

06 💬 What Campers Are Saying
"Booked the shelter one month earlier. Drove 1.5 hours to the beach, only to find out the place was closed. No prior notice at all. I had to call to ask, and was told they were temporarily not operating due to weather. No apology was given. Very disappointing experience. At least inform customers in advance if you are closing！Rude owner."
"Very rude owner. We was looking for place to eat, parked there for not even 5 minutes and apparently there wasnt any stall that sells food. When we wanted to get out, the owner asked us to pay RM3 per pax and even shouted to us "Tidak tahu ka ada private event!" while the gate was wide open and there was also no signage telling that a private event was held at that material time. Not suprised though by reading all the reviews here lol. Bad business management 👎🏻"
"I came not at the right time..its a king tide and windfull but i spend my time with my family is more valuable instead of weather..."

08 🏕️ The Camp Tip
- Families camp here all weekend — a Naturehike quick dry towel keeps the kids comfortable, and a Shinetrip tableware handles the everyday gear.
- Beach camping means sand everywhere — a Blackdog cooler box for the shore, and a Blackdog wagon keeps the site organised.
- Swim sessions are a big part of the day — a Blackdog air bed for the water, and a Wellhike mosquito net hammock dries you off fast after.
