I stayed at the Bayview Beach Resort just one week ago and i dont remember seeing any windsurfers there or on beaches nearby. parasailing yes, and also there were many local people, enticing you to go to the nearby beaches and islets on their boats. the hotel is very good and is mostly visited by malaysian tourists and is away from the tourist bustle of the spaghetti bars and cafes and hamburger joints of ferringhi beach.

The Bayview Beach is well located .. it is at the end of the strip and a short walk in the evening to the restruants etc.
Wind surfing unfortunately you will not find at Batu Ferringhi .. and be mindful of any water sports ... many if any carry insurance.
Whilst there you must eat at the LongBeach Hawkers centre and there are many other local eating places where you can enjoy the true Penang flavour
