Langkawi
Less than one hour's flight from Kuala Lumpur, Langkawi is one of Malaysia's premier beach resorts, ideal for travellers looking for a relaxing beach paradise holiday with beautiful hotels and resorts in tropical surroundings. Langkawi enjoys fairly consistent temperatures thus making it a year round destination. Rainy season is generally considered to be September through to November with the tropical showers often coming at night time. As with tropical showers generally they don’t tend to last long and are often welcomed as a means of cooling down!
Should you venture out of your hotel resort, a trip around the island will see you take in small traditional villages with wooden houses and paddy fields. Why not take the cable car to the summit of Mount Mat Cincang, the view is not to be missed?! The island offers 3 championship 18-hole golf courses and it also has an excellent range of water sports to choose from; diving, snorkeling, jet skiing and parasailing to name but a few. Perhaps you might enjoy an excursion to one of its many nature parks, or enjoy a boat tour where you can explore other islands and deserted beaches at your leisure.
It should also be pointed out that Langkawi is a duty free island so shoppers are sure to pick up a bargain or two! Langkawi makes for a great combination with a stopover in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s bustling cosmopolitan capital city. Sunway will gladly tailor make an itinerary for you upon request.
