LANGKAWI, MALAYSIA (2023) | 10 BEST Things To Do On Langkawi Island
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 авг 2024
- The Langkawi archipelago is located off the west coast of mainland Malaysia. This cluster in the Andaman Sea consists of 99 islands, and only 4 are inhabited. The main Langkawi island is easily accessible by plane or ferry and it’s the most popular one to visit. It’s also the largest island and has a ton to offer.
10. Visit Sandy Skulls Beach & Temurun Falls
Located at the northern coastline, Sandy Skulls Beach (Pantai Tengkorak) is a true local favorite. It’s a beautiful secluded beach with soft white sands, shallow waters for swimming, and forested trees for shade.
When you’re in the area, it’s also worth making the 5-minute drive to nearby Temurun Falls, the tallest waterfall on the island.
9. Eat At The Night Market
When the night falls, the markets open their doors. You can find a market at any day of the week on Langkawi, but the location changes each day. We visited the Temoyong Night Market near Cenang Beach on Thursday.
8. Relax At Cenang Beach
Cenang beach is the most popular and beloved beach on the island, with lots of activities and tourist facilities right at your fingertips. Try jet skiing or paragliding or simply relax at a beach bar.

7. Visit Laman Padi + Museum
Another fun thing to do in Cenang is to visit the rice fields. At the time of our visit, it was free to enter.
6. Langkawi Cable Car & Sky Bridge
One of the most popular activities on Langkawi is to take the cable car to the top of Machincang mountain. The summit sits at an elevation of 708 meters or 2322 feet, providing spectacular views of the surrounding islands and rainforests. There is also a suspension bridge that you can access for a small fee. The cable car leaves from the Oriental Village, but be aware that there might be long lines.
5. Visit the 3D Art in Paradise Museum
The museum houses over 100 different three-dimensional artworks that are divided up into 9 zones and themes. It’s a great activity on a rainy day or to combine with a visit to the cable car.
4. Hike To The Telaga Tujuh Waterfall
Near the Oriental Village, you’ll find the Seven Wells Waterfall, which are widely considered to be the most impressive falls on Langkawi. To get here, you can hike up stairs through a rainforest.
3. Cruise The Kilim Geoforest Park
Langkawi’s northeast coastline is covered with a dense mangrove forest, which has been protected under UNESCO since 2007. Officially named the Kilim Geoforest Park, this natural area can only be visited by taking a boat tour. Most tours last 2 to 3 hours and take you around the swamp, limestone formations, rugged caves, and areas of forested lands.

2. Relax At Tanjung Rhu Beach
One of the most scenic beaches in Langkawi is called Tanjung Rhu beach, which lies at the edge of the Geoforest Park in the north of the island. Due to its slightly hidden location, you will find clean white sands and few crowds here.
1. Drive To Langkawi’s Tallest Peak (Gunung Raya)
Gunung Raya sits at 881 meters or 2890 feet and offers beautiful views of the island and sea. But even better than the view is the actual drive itself. Winding through the primary rainforest, you can spot many animals here.

Thank you. 👍🏼
Wonderful and informative video
Awesome
I went to Langkawi around Jan 2017 for 1 week and stayed in Pantai Cenang. Apart from the Rice Fields place, I did all the rest in the video as well as most of the list at the end of the video
Nice! It’s such a great island to explore 🙏
Thank u for this absolutely wonderful video n for showing your explorations in Langkawi, and for sharing your top 10 things to do on d island.
One of d most popular attractions in Langkawi is its duty free island status, so some products like chocolate, tobacco, beer n liquor r much cheaper from d mainland. I've visited Langkawi 3 times, but haven't done few things like d exploration at d Geopark, visiting d observation Maha Tower in d town, Kuah, n cruise on a yacht around d main island. Glad to see that u guys have had a good time in Langkawi.
Thanks for watching! Yeah we heard about that duty free status on the island 😊
@@worldwildhearts 😀
awesome!!
Thank you for such an informative video and so wonderfully presented ❤
Thanks for watching!
Thanks
Thanks for watching! 😁
Very helpful and informative!
Great Video. Definitely going to check this place out. before leaving malaysia
Thanks for watching! ☺️ enjoy Langkawi!!
Langkawi left us beautiful memories, but due to time constraints, we have not visited many of the attractions on the island. Your video is great, it gave me a more comprehensive understanding of Langkawi and I look forward to returning to Langkawi. thanks
Glad you enjoyed Langkawi! We’ve been to the island twice now and it keeps surprising us ☺️
Wonderfully produced video. Very valuable and engaging - thanks!
Thanks!
Thank you for promoting my country Malaysia.
You are the best travel guides on you RUclips that i have came across so far .. much ❤
Thank you for these kind words! ☺️ that means a lot!!
@worldwildhearts i really enjoyed your video guides on Malaysia. Thanks for all your efforts and professional work. ❤️❤️❤️
Zac needs to host a sleep time podcast, his voice is perfect for it, relaxing and soothing!!
😂
Thank you , we just arrived langkawi yesterday. So now i know where should i go the coming days
Hope you had a great time!
Awesome as usual
Thanks!
Wow😍.. Very nice and informative vlog❤️.
thank you!
Amazing video. Visited Langkawi a few months ago, and only managed to do 1 out of the 10 in this video 🤣 Looks like we must revisit Langkawi someday.
🤣
I hope all the foreigners who are planning to come to Langkawi can be sensitive about the dress culture of the Malay community and do some research before arriving. We welcome tourists but please also respect our culture.
You are SPOT ON on the top 10. Also try the pregnant maiden lake. Now there is one of the biggest aerospace exhibition in langkawi called LIMA. Countries from the entire world participate but some have to be turned down due to limited space. Ships, fighter planes, helicopters, sub, weapons are on display.
Thanks for the info!
@@worldwildheartsj
Excellent video. Insightful, well edited and such soft soothing and clear narration. You guys are good. Please keep making more. Love from India !
Thank you! ☺️
we spent ou honeymoon in langkawi..amazing place..though they scared us about the beaches with no net to avoid them for jelly fish
Nice honeymoon place! We didn’t have any issues with jellyfish! But definitely saw many when snorkelling in Borneo haha
🤝
What height did you select for the Zeiss scope rings?
New subscribers here :) I really like the way you presented the beautiful langkawi❤
such a beautiful and relaxing video. please suggest if it is a good place for honeymoon and how many days would be enough to explore the island..
Definitely a nice place for a honeymoon... very relaxed. I think 5 days is fine... unless you want lots of time at the beach, you can stay maybe a week
My My favorite Male!
Thanks!
Excellent Video guys. Very helpful. One doubt How to travel within langkawi and the best hotel to stay at ?
Best way to get around is by motorbike. You can rent a scooter in Cenang beach. There are many rental shops so just talk to them the day before! It's a quiet island. You can also use Grab to get around. The best hotels are in Cenang. We have links to where we stayed in the description below the video so you can check them out there
Lovely informative video! Are we allowed to fly a sub 250g drone there? I noticed a few drone shots ;)
yes it was allowed in most places!
hi, i love your videos, one question, how do you make those map animation?
We use Google Earth Pro
Love your video. What would be the best place for a hotel in Langkawi? Would be it be Cenang or is Kuah also a great place ?
We preferred Cenang... it's a bit more central that's why we decided to stay there. It was easy to get to any other place ont the island from there. It's also a bit more touristic so more tourism facilities. But Kuah also offers great accommodation and restaurants... so up to you!
😊@@worldwildhearts
Don't use even good things more than necessary / sufficient quantity : Allergy. Jose N.K idea from a good book.
One of the most helpful videos I’ve seen so far. Question, is it easy to rent a bike there, do you need a drivers license or international license? Thanks for all the tips. 🤩
It was easy to rent a bike. Most rentals were located in Cenang. We just needed to show our driver’s licence (not an international one). They seem to be more relaxed on the island…
@@worldwildheartscan you share the name of the place for rental
Thank you, great video!
How did you get to Langkawi? And where from?
We got there by ferry from Koh Lipe (Thailand). After, we flew to George Town in Penang as there was no ferry connection anymore there. But we heard that you can take a ferry to the mainland
@@worldwildhearts we will be going from Penang to Langkawi. Thanks for the info, think we will fly as well then…
When is the best time to go? We’re hoping to go May? Not sure if the weather will be ok?
We visited in March and had wonderful weather… generally the best time is between November and April but with climate changing it’s been more unpredictable the last years. Winds begin to pick up in May, and there's more chance of thunderstorms, but it’s also possible that you’ll have lovely weather!
Hey, does somebody know if there are spots for windsurfing in langkawi?
Hi, does Grab operate in Langkawi? What more places would you suggest to visit must in malaysia?
Yea Grab operates in Langkawi! It can take a bit of time sometimes before you find one. But we got around all fine! And definitely Cameron Highlands, the national parks (Taman Negara if you only stay on the pensinula, otherwise there are better parks in Sabah and Serawak). We also liked Penang, KL, and there are other small islands like Tioman and Perhentian.
@@worldwildhearts thank you so much for the detailed answer 🫡
How long you guys recommend to stay in Langkawi?
We stayed for 5 days and that was enough time to experience all the island has to offer! Could stay 3 days if you plan to visit more places in the country
Planning to visit Oct last week. Is it a good time?
Every year is different, but October is technically still raining season there... usually rain is heaviest in September and October
Planning to visit in mid November? How will be the climate?
Am I allowed to drive the roller just with my car drivers license and my international drivers license?
I don't have a roller license.
In Langkawi it didn't seem to matter that much... the police stopped us but they didn't say anything (we're in the same situation like you)
Hi, which month did you stay at Langkawi? Did you have a lot of rain?
We were there in March and didn’t experience any rains when there!
The tourism industry has been rattled by Kedah’s PAS-led state government for suggesting that the sale of alcohol would be controlled on the resort island of Langkawi, following its move to shut down gaming outlets in the state.
Its leaders have warned that any move to ban liquor will deter tourists from the island, which is a major contributor to Kedah’s economy.
Why people can't enjoy travel without alcohol!
dont give stupid fake info.. the ban was made for malaysian, who is muslim only
Don't play politics here...Minister of tourism that supposed to promote tourism in Malaysia now became ministry that sabotage tourism in Malaysia...you guys are killing this country...
which month is best to visit the west coast
December to March for the West Coast
Can we go around the island by motor bike
Yes you can and we highly recommend doing so! Langkawi is pretty quiet overall so not too much traffic to worry about.
were you allowed to fly the drone?
Yes but do check regulations as they seem to change often
what is the best months to visit langkawi?
November to April is best! We were there in March
U missed
1- Helicopter 🚁 ride
2- crocodile 🐊 show
3- ATV
4- cruise 🚢
& etc
Haii guys for your information many negative comment right know from some malaysian and fake tourist is false accusation it just politicaly motivated because langkawi is in opposition leadership..
Good to know! thanks
Wilcome to Langkawi n see the LIMA'23 23-27 MEI 2023
how much cost rent motorbike a day?
I think it was about 10 US$ a day
Which is better langkawi or Bali?
Two completely different destinations… langkawi is a chill, relatively small, and laid back island. There’s some things to do but not too much. Bali is bigger and has way more tourists, a bustling nightlife, and more activities and temples.
Of course langkawi
Which is the best time in the year to visit Langkawi?
November to April is the best time to visit Langkawi, as this is when Malaysia's west coast receives the most sunshine and the least rain.
Thank you so much ❤
Is September good time to go to Lankawi?
It's still raining season so it might affect your time at the beach... visit between November - April if you can!
whats the price of bike rent per day
Please answer
It was pretty cheap.. don't remember exactly but maybe around 10 US$ per day?
@@worldwildhearts thanks for the information
Love from India 🇮🇳 ♥️
Thailand or Malaysia?
Personally Thailand for us! But both are amazing
@@worldwildhearts Thailand or bali ?
Krabi is Love 😻 beaches in Krabi Thailand are the best and beautiful.
For non Muslims, just be careful while outside: do not wear shorts and any clothing that reveals your arms or thighs. Also alcohol is a no no. You might be subject to fines and imprisonment.
We were wearing shorts all fine! It's a pretty free island
If you want to wear bikini, go somewhere else.
Maybe it's not Langkawi that got tsunami, maybe somewhere else? Wrong information maker to become in education history?
Maybe it's a plot expression to bomb Langkawi? Impossible that Langkawi will get tsunami? Maybe a kind of like communist story(under pathway hill, bush, like bandits) but under water and jump to invade kind of plot? Mr Lau/tan/Koh if this is correct, if imagine don't have your identity, alot of bad anticipation?
Nice environment, good scenery. Quite clean. But worst for beach hangout. Overall, overrated. Boring. Prices freaking expensive too despite of poor entertainment & services. Not recommended for beach tourism.👎👎
Damn sad to hear about your experience. We had a good time there and coming from Europe and US, it doesn’t feel overpriced at all 🤣 we’ve been to worse places hahah 😌
Because she is from poor country indon😂
You are @@worldwildhearts
As malaysian, i would advise never go langkawi... Is terible now, if go to having dinner the price are super expensive, even local too.. now no one is going there.
price hike is happening everywhere not just in Langkawi🙄
@@zahurinismail2919 robbering is everywhere too. So the police can leave it right?
We know you just make for political reason shame on you..
@@rdzwancmay1348 don't be stupid, who playing political u know better than me. Im telling the truth
I’m local and I’m going there. Just because there’s a price hike which is evident everywhere due to inflation, doesn’t mean “no one is going there” it’s probably just you and the people you hang out with.
Very helpful and informative!
Thanks! 😊
