Tanjong Bunga is a state constituency in Penang, Malaysia, that has been represented in the Penang State Legislative Assembly since 1959. It covers the suburbs of George Town along the northern coast of Penang Island, including Batu Ferringhi, Tanjung Bungah and parts of Tanjung Tokong.

The state constituency was first contested in 1959 and is mandated to return a single Assemblyman to the Penang State Legislative Assembly under the first-past-the-post voting system. Since 2018^[update], the State Assemblyman for Tanjong Bunga is Zairil Khir Johari from the Democratic Action Party (DAP), which is part of the state's ruling coalition, Pakatan Harapan (PH).

The Tanjong Bunga constituency contains the polling districts of Batu Ferringhi, Vale of Tempe, Kampung Tanjong Bunga, Seaview Park, Jalan Gajah, Tanjung Tokong and Sungai Kelian. Thus, the northernmost suburbs of George Town - Batu Ferringhi, Tanjung Bungah and the northern part of Tanjung Tokong (up to Jalan Gajah and Tanjung Tokong Road) - fall under this state seat. It also encompasses the newly created neighbourhood of Seri Tanjung Pinang at Tanjung Tokong, which was reclaimed from the sea in the early 2000s.
