There are many interesting places in Langkawi that you can visit, most of these places can be visited by hiring a taxi, self drive car hire, rent bikes or participate in tour packages offered by travel agencies. There are also some activities that require you to rent a boat. Among the interesting places to visit which I suggest are Cabel Car, Mangrove Tour, Island Hoping, Payar Island Marine Park, Mahsuri Tomb, Chenang Beach-water sports, Eagle Square, Fishing Trip, Day Cruise & Sunset Cruise and Chenang Beach-night bazaar. However, there are many other interesting places that you can visit.
MANGROVE TOUR
Mangrove tour is the activity that you should not miss while in Langkawi. You will be taken to places of interest during this visit such as Bat Cave, Crocodile Cave, Floating Fish Farm and eagle feeding.
LANGKAWI CABLE CAR & SKY BRIDGE
Langkawi Cable Car and Sky Bridge is a very worthwhile places to visit. By using the Cable Car, it will take you to the top of Mount Mat Chincang with the height of 2000 feet. Langkawi Sky Bridge is one of the highest suspension bridge in the world.
PAYAR ISLAND MARINE PARK
This marine park is the only one located on the western side of Peninsular Malaysia and the only marine park with a floating platform in Southeast Asia. There are several tour operators that offer snorkelling and scuba diving packages to this marine park.
Island hoping is a visit to three islands by boat, these islands are 'Pulau Singa', 'Pulau Beras Basah' and 'Pulau Dayang Bunting'. This trip takes about 3 hours. The most interesting is a visit to 'Dayang Bunting Lake', located in 'Pulau Dayang Bunting'. This lake is a freshwater lake even though the border to the sea is only about 5 meters.
CHENANG BEACH - WATER SPORTS
Chenang Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in Langkawi, it is facing the andaman sea and has a very beautiful sunset. Here we have some water sports operators offering several types of water sports such as para sailing, jet ski, banana boat, wind surfing, water ski and others. If you want to have fun with water sports, I suggest you come to Chenang Beach because they are less expensive than hotels.
MAHSURI TOMB
This mausoleum is located in 'Kampung Mawat'. In this village where mahsuri lived until she was sentenced to death for having defamed with other man in the absence of her husband. Before Mahsuri's death, she cursed Langkawi will not be safe for seven generations. The curse is over now, some people believe Langkawi has developed due to Mahsuri curse has ended. Come visit the Mahsuri Tomb to find out more about the story of Mahsuri.
CHENANG BEACH- NIGHT BAZAAR
Lately, bazaar located along the coastal road of Chenang Beach has become a tourist attraction. This bazaar consists of a row of shops and stalls that sell a variety of souvenirs. Seafood restaurants are also abundant here, the seafood in this restaurants is very fresh. This is because seafood such as fishs, prawns, mussels and crabs are the result of the local fishermen catch. There are also imported seafood such as lobsters and oysters. Cafe and Bar are also commonly found in Chenang Beach , most are owned by foreign nationals residing in Langkawi.
SUNSET CRUISE & DAY CRUISE
Sunset cruise and day cruise is one of my most recommended activities. This is because most of us rarely have the opportunity to board the luxury yacht. Sure this will give good memories during your holiday in Langkawi, especially if you come for your honeymoon.

FISHING TRIP
Fishing is my favorite activity when I was in Langkawi. Indeed, the island of Langkawi is one of the most popular fishing spot among local anglers. There are many fishing locations you can go fishing and catch your first fish even if you do not have any fishing experience. This is because the government often make artificial reefs around the waters of Langkawi for fish breeding. If you bring your kids, I'm sure they will have fun too.
EAGLE SQUARE
Eagle Square is one of the landmarks of Langkawi that welcomes visitors arriving by ferry. It is located near the ferry terminal. Because the word Langkawi which means eagle, the government has built a statue of an eagle as a symbol and landmark of Langkawi. The best time to visit the Eagle Square is at sunset, you will be able to record the views of the beautiful background of the eagle and the sunset.
