Batu Maung is a residential neighbourhood in the Malaysian state of Penang.[1] It is located 15.7 km (9.8 mi) south of the city centre, adjacent to Bayan Lepas and the Penang International Airport. Batu Maung is home to the island terminus of the Second Penang Bridge and the southern end of the Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway. It is also surrounded by fishing villages such as Permatang Damar Laut and Teluk Tempoyak.
Formerly an agricultural village, the development of Batu Maung into a residential neighbourhood began in the late 20th century.[2] Part of the Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone actually lies within the township, which also houses the headquarters of WorldFish Center and a deepwater fishing port.[2][3][4][5]
