Langkawi, as an island, is full of hidden treasures that are sure to make for an epic holiday escape. Especially, this premium getaway is full of exciting opportunities, with stunning waterfalls, landscapes, and adventure-packed activities. We’ve compiled a list of 10 reasons to visit Langkawi. See the list below.

1. Food That Makes Your Mouth Water

Langkawi is no stranger to the unique and unforgettable dishes that Malaysia offers, thanks to its diverse selection of tempting restaurants and cuisines. Langkawi’s residents take great pride in their cooking, which includes fresh crab, lobster, squid, and barbecued fish and grilled marinated chicken. This island is a gastronome’s paradise, with influences from Indian and Chinese to Malay and Thai. Personally, this is my no.1 motivation as to my reasons to visit Langkawi. 😀

2. Its Beaches Are Among the Best in the World.

If you’re looking for a beach vacation, Langkawi is the place for you! There is no shortage of locations to immerse yourself in this tropical paradise surrounded by crystal velvet blue sea and white sands.

Pantai Cenang, a favourite spot for both locals and visitors, is home to some of the area’s most beautiful beaches. Tanjung Rhu’s private beach and Pantai Tengah’s quiet shores are only two of the many secluded locations on the island. You can’t go wrong with any of these breathtakingly lovely beaches if you’re searching for peace and quiet.

3. The Spectacular Landscape

Some of Malaysia’s most magnificent landscapes may be seen in Langkawi. The natural features include beautiful rainforests and a variety of mangroves covered in brightly coloured flowers. Furthermore, natural splendours like mountainous scenery and stunning waterfalls may be seen at Pulau Dayang Bunting, one of many locations in Langkawi. If you’re in Langkawi, don’t miss Langkawi’s GeoPark for its awe-inducing flora, fauna, and wildlife.

4. The Wildlife

Langkawi is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including 200 bird species and various monkeys. Over 150 different species of animals and birds from all over the world can be found in their famous wildlife park, including animals and birds from South East Asia, Africa, South America, Australia, Russia, and Malaysia. Among these animals are racket-tailed drongos, mudskippers, monitor lizards, Dusky Leaf Monkeys, and fish eagles. Regardless of where you are on the island, you will undoubtedly come across some of Malaysia’s most well-known wildlife.

5. A Wide Range of Activities

You will not be disappointed when it comes to finding things to do in Langkawi! There is a wide variety of activities available on the island. Whether you are looking for day trips, a sightseeing tour, or a relaxing spa, there is something for everyone! The Langkawi Cable Car is one of the island’s most well-known attractions. This exciting trip, located in Oriental Village, provides a chance to see Gunung Machinchang, which is also the location of the Langkawi Sky Bridge. Visitors will see mountain peaks, bay islets, and waterfalls as they travel up to a height of 708 metres.

6. Island hopping Available

Langkawi is part of Malaysia’s most popular chain of islands consisting of 104 islands in the Andaman Sea. As a result, the island is ideal for those looking to do some island hopping. With surrounding islands full of tropical rainforests and mesmerising clifftops, you will not want to miss this one-day trip.

There are numerous organised island-hopping tours available throughout the island. We recommend, however, visiting Tasik Dayang Bunting, which is home to Langkawi’s largest lake. Therefore you can unwind and take in the beauty of the islands while snorkelling around the Indian Ocean’s bays.

7. Watersports for High Adrenaline Junkies

If you, like us, are a bit of an adrenaline junkie, don’t worry! Langkawi is brimming with water sports activities and adrenaline-pumping adventures. While the island has the feel of a remote, exotic paradise, it also has popular tourist activities like jet skiing, banana boating, kayaking, canoeing, and parasailing.

Moreover, if exploring underwater paradise is your thing, there are numerous places to snorkel and dive. You will be able to see the spectacular Andaman coral and swim through the famous mystical caves while you are here.

8. Culturally Enriching

It’s difficult to escape the rich Malaysian culture woven into the island’s cultural landscape no matter where you go in Langkawi. Firstly, there are numerous opportunities to take a guided tour of the island. Whereby you can see traditional Malay houses and places of worship. In addition, they provide the opportunity to learn about the island’s native plants and herbs, as well as their medicinal properties.

Alternatively, many local restaurants host entertainment nights where you can sample the delights of Langkawi’s cuisine while watching some local dancers and entertainers. The 3D Museum of Art is also a popular destination for tourists and art enthusiasts. It enables you to capture a one-of-a-kind illusion of images that will almost certainly blow your mind.

9. Food hunting in the Evening Markets

The Langkawi Night Market is ideal for those who want to immerse themselves in the island’s most traditional practices. So, you can taste some of the most authentic and reasonably priced food on the island, including Malay sweets and street dishes, at this location. The atmosphere of these markets is unlike anything else on the island, with local music and drinks accompanying the burning smells and aromas of the market. Local vendors also use it as an opportunity to sell arts and crafts, textiles, and trinkets, which are ideal for souvenirs!

Team #EMGA had the pleasure of assisting Safa and her wonderful family — her father, mother, and younger brother — who looked fresh and cheerful despite just arriving from Kuwait the day before. 💛

We started the day with her medical check-up ✅, then went straight into a campus tour adventure and accommodation check-in 🏡. Safa’s family radiated warmth and joy, even inviting us to join them for a lovely Indian lunch 🍛🥰. They shared how much they enjoy trying new foods, and can’t wait to explore Malaysian cuisine next!

With 7 days in Kuala Lumpur, they’re especially excited to visit iconic spots like KLCC 🌆✨. We wish them the happiest adventures ahead — and an amazing start to Safa’s study journey here in Malaysia, both in and #BeyondTheClassroom 🚀💙

Team #EMGA had the pleasure of assisting Alaa with her registration today, followed by a coffee catch-up right on campus ☕💙. After completing her registration, we also supported her at the visa unit to apply for dependent visas for her children.

Alaa isn’t alone on this journey — her three kids are here with her and have already enrolled in an international school, making Malaysia their new home too. 🏡💛 Though she shared that the registration process was a little tiring, the highlight of her day was meeting her supervisor and having meaningful discussions about her studies. 📚🌟

Here’s to a smooth and successful journey ahead, Alaa — both inside and #BeyondTheClassroom 🚀✨

And of course, no visit would be complete without some local flavors — we introduced them to the classic Nasi Ayam and Milo Ais combo, which was an instant hit! 🍚🥤

We can’t wait to welcome Aini back soon to begin her Malaysian study journey — inside the classroom and #BeyondTheClassroom 🚀💛

It’s his very first time studying abroad, and with Team #EMGA by his side, everything went smoothly — from registration to medical check-ups ✅. To top it off, we treated ourselves to lunch at the viral spot in Bangi, Mak Kimbong 🍛🔥 (his second time there in just two days — that’s how good it is!).

Extra special thanks to Ms. Iffah, a proud UKM alumni herself, who shared some insider campus spots and made the experience even more meaningful 💙. Khader was super happy to finally meet us in person, and he left feeling confident, supported, and ready to begin this exciting journey.

He was truly happy to finally meet us in person and very satisfied with the support received. He even said he will definitely recommend Team #EMGA to others 🙌. We can’t wait to see Khader thrive and shine bright at UKM! ✨
