Trip to Langkawi wif Cousin

Hey guys, i'm here to blog about my trip to Langkawi during hari raya. It was a 3D2N trip with my cousin. Since it's just a short trip, we didn't manage to visit all the places. On the first day, we went for island hopping tour booked from the hotel counter. The trip takes around 4 hours by a fast boat which cover 3 islands. The first island we visited was Pulau Beras Basah (Wet Rice Island). Pulau Beras Basah is famous for its beautiful white sandy beaches and greenish blue sea. But there were also many litters on the sea. Generally, nothing much to do on this island, you can just walk on the soft sand, swimming, or taking picture. For water activities, i will suggest you go for pantai cenang.











The second island we stopped was called "Pulau singa besar" (Big Lion Island). Here is where we can see eagle feeding activity.


The last stop was Pulau Dayang Bunting (Pregnant Maiden Island). From the entrance, we need to walk around 15 minutes to reach the lake. When you are walking, you need to take care of your belongings, there are monkeys around swaying on the tree. The lake is beautiful and swimming is allowed.

After island hopping trip, we went for duty free shopping at kuah town. A lot of chocolate, cigarettes, perfume, and liquor were sold in cheaper price (tax free).

The next day we went to oriental village and ride up a cable car to see the view. You will get impressed with amazing and breathtaking view of Langkawi island which you can see clearly from the top.


After that, we went to telaga tujuh village (7 wells waterfall) which is located next to oriental village. You need to climb up the stairs to reach the place. It's fairly tiring but when you reach the waterfall, you can sit on the stone, relax and soak your tired feet into the nature cool water.

 

On the last day, we went to pantai cenang beach which is not that far from airport.
