Ship’s propeller wash induced scour is a well-known engineering problem for port structures along the shoreline. However, insufficient recorded data makes it difficult to justify that ship’s propeller wash induced scour is taking place in Malaysia’s major ports. This study reported the seabed condition of the two wharves in Penang Port using Single Beam Echo Sounder (SBES) data. The presence of seabed scour due to ship manoeuvring is investigated based on seabed data. The results showed that Penang Port is experiencing a severe siltation problem instead of ship’s propeller wash induced scour impacts.
