Program details

Langkawi Island was given World Geopark status by UNESCO on 01 June 2007. Upon arrival after a 2.5 hours ferry ride from Penang Island, proceed to Eagle Square which is Langkawi’s most prominent landmark. This is followed by the highlight of the tour, exploring the Mangrove by boat! Boat ride starts from The Kilim Karst Geoforest Park, where its magnificent landscape consists of nearly vertical to sub-rounded limestone hills with pinnacles of various shapes and sizes.

The most dominant geological feature is the primary dark-grey limestone of the Setul Formation. The boat ride continues on into the wetlands, exploring the luscious, exotic mangrove forest, rugged limestone cliffs and its capabilities to accommodate life and ecological functions. Other highlights include eagle feeding, caves exploring, viewing of limestone formation, visit and lunch at a fish farm.

The boat ride ends at the phenomenally white sandy beach of Tanjung Rhu, where you can see a number of islands within the Thai border area on a clear day. Next, proceed for a photo stop at Oriental Village and Perdana Quay. Enjoy some duty free shopping at Kuah Town before you depart back to Penang. Note: Remember to bring towel, sun block, sun glasses and sandals.
