#springitinerary #gurneybaypark #penangnightwalks #seasidestroll #gurneydriveviews #penangparks #urbanescapepenang #coastalvibes #gurneybaynight #hiddengempenang #malaysiatravel There’s something magical about Gurney Bay Park at night. The sea breeze was gentle, the air cooler, and the city lights reflected off the coastline like dancing fireflies. I visited with family after dinner, and the atmosphere was refreshingly calm compared to the usual bustle of Gurney Drive. The walkways were well-lit and clean, making it perfect for a relaxed seaside stroll. Locals were out jogging, kids were playing, and some folks just sat along the railings soaking in the views. You could hear soft waves in the background, and the distant skyline added just the right touch of city charm. It’s a beautiful mix of urban design and natural coastal beauty — peaceful yet lively, especially when the breeze kicks in under the stars.
