Located off the north west coast of Peninsular Malaysia, Langkawi is part of an archipelago of around 104 mostly uninhabited islands where hidden coves and deserted beaches were once the haunt of pirates. Beautifully unspoilt, Langkawi's rugged beauty and local legends offer an irresistible combination of cultural and natural attractions.
Langkawi isn't just one big island, but consists of a group of around 100 islands. While most are uninhabited, a few have been designed for tourism development so that visitors from all over the world can admire and appreciate the magical beauty of Langkawi. Many island tours are available from reputable operators to explore these exotic getaways.
Langkawi has some of the warmest water in the world and some of the most colorful coral teeming with tropical fish...from tiny clown fish to much larger species.
