It features beautifully pristine beaches, abundant marine life and offers an idyllic retreat from the urban jungle. A duty-free port, this island of scenic, tranquil landscapes has become a favorite destination for local and international visitors. Langkawi is accessible by ferry from either Kuala Kedah (75 minutes) or Kuala Perlis (45 minutes). Ferries usually leave on the hour from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Both ferry terminals offer ample parking facilities at about RM5 per day. There are daily flights to Langkawi from Kuala Lumpur which land at Langkawi International Airport.
