Known as the ‘Jewel of Kedah’, Langkawi’s wildlife-rich rainforests, cathedral-like limestone caves and powder-soft white sand beaches offer a perfect balance of activity and pure, unadulterated relaxation. The gin-clear waters surrounding the 99 islands of the archipelago are a treasure trove of underwater activity, while the land offers even more in the way of natural beauty. From bat colonies to bonnet macaques, tumbling waterfalls to ancient rainforest foliage, there’s much to tempt you from your sunlounger.
