Pulau Langkawi Off The Beaten Path Tips by phil_uk_net Top 5 Page for this destination

Eagle Feeding

If you enlarge this picture you can just about see an eagle swooping down to feed. The tour operators here organise eagle feeding trips where they take you out to the mangroves by boat and throw fish into the sea so that the eagles come down to feed.

I like seeing wildlife up close but have reservations about this kind of thing. Anything that causes animals or birds to change their natural behaviour can cause problems, both to the animal concerned and to humans.

Summer Palace

Built as a film set for 'Anna and the King', it is a bit of a tourist trap but worth stopping to have a look at if you are passing.
