Admiral Cove Port Dickson

Admiral Cove Port Dickson is one of the more “upper class” resorts in PD. It is also the only resort that has a marina for yacht and boat owners to berth their vessels. There are about 6 pontoons in all that easily accommodate about 50 of these sea faring vessels at any open time. The fact that owning a yacht or even a small fishing boat is out of reach for many makes Admiral Cove a resort for the elites.

Though not a choice destination, it makes no harm to go take a peek, just to fulfill your curiosity as to how a Marina looks like.

Many years ago, the Admiral Marina was part of the tour itinerary for the Coral Princess, one of the cruise ships owned by the Genting Group. It has a one night stopover before heading for Singapore. This however has been discontinued due to reasons unknown to me.

Like all beach resorts, Admiral Cove offers the usual facilities and recreation. Being a more elite setup however, the rooms are better furnished. All rooms are equipped with 32″ LCD TVs, Avi spa guest amenities and many more that are only found in 4 star resorts and above.

A concept unique only to Admiral Marina Cove is the Sailor’s Drink Shop which is actually a pub which overlooks the full view of the Marina where all the luxurious yachts are berthed. Yacht owners can have their drinks gloat over or boast about each other’s yachts.

Admiral Marina Cove is situated along the 5th. Mile Port Dickson Coast Road about 3 minutes after Tanjung Tuan Resort.

Port Dickson Town

Many visitors to Port Dickson by-passes the town center. As the most popular beach locations are away from the town, most head for the hotels and resorts rather than dropping by the town area. It is thus a misconception that PD Town is a busy town flooded with tourist. Fact is, Port Dickson town almost comes to a standstill after 9 pm when all the shops are closed. Except for the 2 shopping centers which closes at 10, you will hardly see any activity.

The Regency Tanjung Tuan Beach Resort Port Dickson

The Regency Tanjung Taun Beach Resort is one of the oldest beach resort in Port Dickson. Also located along the 5th. Mile Coast Road or Jalan Pantai, The Regency is the only Resort in PD that sports the Minangkabau look that is unique to traditional buildings in Negeri Sembilan.
