5.Sunset At the Beach

-Pantai Cenang Beach-

Located on the western coast line of Langkawi, this is undoubtedly the most popular beach in the island. No wonder there are so many hotels and resorts that have popped up along the beach and all of them are the first ones to get full in the whole of Langkawi during the high season. The beach is a long stretch of beautiful white sand offering great views of the western islands in the ocean. It's a great family beach with lots of watersport activities, beach bars and lines of shops, eateries & spas along the beachside road.

-Tanjung Rhu Beach-

This secluded beach at the far north eastern end of the island is located in a picture perfect setting with blue emerald water and many islands forming the scenic backdrop. While it requires some drive from the popular tourist places, this beach with its long and wide stretch of white soft sand is probably the most beautiful one in the island. With its shallow waters and many stalls & eateries along the coastal road that leads to it, Tajung Rhu is also famed as a great family beach in Langkawi.

-Tengkorak Beach-

Also known as the Sandy Skulls Beach because of a legend associated with it, the Tengkorak Beach is a beautiful little beach on the northern shoreline of Langkawi which mostly remains secluded and desolate. The beach is approached through a parkland with forested trees and is a locals' favorite, particularly for holiday picnics. It has all the basic facilities like picnic tables, huts, shower rooms and toilets.
