Langkawi, the Jewel of Kedah, is an archipelago of 99 islands (an extra 5 temporary islands are revealed at low tide) in the Andaman Sea, some 30 km off the mainland coast of northwestern Malaysia. The islands are a part of the state of Kedah, which is adjacent to the Thai border. Langkawi is also an administrative district with the town of Kuah as the capital and largest town. Langkawi is a duty-free island.
Pantai Cenang is Langkawi’s most popular tourist destination, located near the airport and 25 km away from Kuah Town. The hallmark of this beach is its 3 km stretch (when combined with the 1 km-long Pantai Tengah) of sandy goodness, beautiful scenery and exciting tourist attractions. This is also where most of the resorts are concentrated on the island along with a host of shopping opportunities, exciting nightlife and convenient facilities. |
