We arrived in Langkawi, Malaysia on the 13th after a very long trip from Koh Lanta! We are staying just outside the main town of Kuah on the south-east side of the island.
We have hired a bike for the duration of our stay on the island and have spent the whole of yesterday and today exploring. Yesterday we headed to the main beach area and enjoyed relaxing in the sun. In the evening we went to the local night market and had an amazing selection of local foods which were all delicious!
Today we decided to explore the north of the island and got a cable car up to the highest point on the island which gives you a spectacular view over almost the whole thing. The mixture of white sandy beaches and lush tropical rainforest really does take your breath away (see picture). After the cable car we headed to a secluded beach that had been recommended to us and spent the late afternoon relaxing and swimming in the crystal clear water.
Tomorrow we are off back to the main beach and doing a boat tour around a few of the local islands which should be great fun. On Saturday we want to explore the north east of the island and visit the mangroves, hot springs and a variety of other places. The current plan is then to leave on the 18th either by ferry all the way to Penang or a ferry then a bus depending on price!
