Langkawi

A new Island to explore. We kicked it off with a walk down to the wharf for an island-hopping tour. It was a longer walk than we expected and we made the mistake of not booking a tour in advance, so we were unsuccessful in our first attempt. We cabbed back to the main drag and killed some time before booking an afternoon tour.

It was great little trip. We had three stops (unfortunately no photos). The jungle-clad islands of the Langkawi archipelago are fringed with white-sand beaches and colorful corals. We set sail on a private boat and visited three different islands— Pulau Dayang Bunting, Pulau Beras Basah, and Pulau Singa Besar. The first stop was at Pregnant Maiden Lake; a freshwater lake located inland on a small island for a swim. There were lots of warning signs about swimming and potential bacteria but everyone seemed to do it so we jumped in. The 2nd stop was to watch some eagle feeding and we finished off with free time on a secluded island beaches.

We enjoyed some good banana leaf dinner to cap of the day.Weiterlesen
