If you prefer adrenaline-filled activities, catch a ride on the Langkawi Cable Car and be rewarded with breath-taking views of the dense rainforests, sapphire seas and the other islands in the archipelago.

Leisure activities
The spotless sands of Langkawi’s beaches are something of an attraction themselves. While all the beaches are impressive, to make the most of your trip to Langkawi, make sure that you pay a visit to Langkawi’s most popular beach, Pantai Cenang Beach. Tanjung Rhu beach offers an equally-impressive beach experience, but is more secluded than Pantai Cenang. Pantai Teluk Burau is also popular, partly due to the magnificent views of the other islands, mountains and lush rainforests.
If you want to factor in some cultural immersion, Air Hangat Village is the perfect place to go. In this modern cultural complex, you will find a variety of attractions, including a theatre and a saltwater hot-spring, surrounded by a beautiful mural, made from river stones.
