2. Making Art and Memories at PaKat Creative Studio
If you don’t already know it, PaKat Creative Studio is a smart art school located at Jalan Jade, at the shop lot near the police station at Bumiko. Their shop sells various artwork from local talented artists. If you are looking for a unique gift to get your loved ones, this place is definitely worth a visit.
On top of that, they have activities like Paint and Sip, acrylic painting, and art classes for both children and adults. I think this is quite an amazing space to enjoy with your children — creating art together. Sure, there is so much fun doing other activities like swimming or any outdoor activities but exploring and creating art, and it being available in Miri is such a breath of fresh air.

4. Banana Boat at Piasau Boat Club
Another activity you can do at Piasau Boat Club is playing Banana Boat! Yeap, that’s right, they have it here.
5. Hiking at Grand Oil Lady
Next is hiking! Miri is known to have just a drive away spots to enjoy a scenic, hiking session. If you’re more of an outdoor activity type of person, you need to hike at least once at the Grand Oil Lady. I’ve done it once, and that was my last! HAHA. I don’t really fancy hiking, but those who do, will love this place. Just look at it!
That’s about it for the activities you can do in Miri for now. If you guys know any other activities that are fun to do besides eating and the ones I have mentioned above, do let me know!
