The eponymous beach of Telok Kemang is the main highlight of the town, known for its fine sands and clear emerald waters.

Alongside that, there are so many beach resorts and hotels along the stretch of the beach. Other attractions in Telok Kemang include the Telok Kemang Observatory and the Port Dickson Ornamental Fish Centre. The Telok Kemang Observatory, also known as the Baitul Hilal (Arabic for 'house of the crescent moon'), is one of the most popular places in Malaysia to observe the hilal to mark the beginning of the Islamic months of Ramadan and Shawwal. Aside of being the place with the most hilal observations, the observatory also houses the most sophisticated telescope in Malaysia and the ASEAN region.
