The entire island is one large resort with a constant temperature of 28 degrees, except for the two months of the rainy season in September and October. The island is so small that there are not even city buses, everyone drives their own bikes, cars and taxis. Locals here don’t seem to have heard of hitchhiking and it’s quite difficult for a traveler to get around, but for just 5$ you can rent motorbike for a whole day, which is quite enough to travel around the entire island, with its 3 amazing waterfalls, a crocodile farm and a wonderful sky bridge. Here as in travel programs, so many monkeys around the island which turned out to be not so cute, and the beaches here are even more gentle than in Thailand. Langkawi is also called the city of eagles, and it’s true that there are quite a lot of them, sometimes it’s even strange to watch a huge eagle land on a palm tree near the shore. Unfortunately, the water here is as muddy as everywhere else we were, so there is nothing for those who like to dive here, which is why we soon planned to find a place where we can do great snorkeling. But overall Langkawi is a wonderful island. Hostels here are cheaper than on the mainland and can be found for 7$ per night for two. You can eat in local cafes here for 2$ and it will be delicious. We think we could even stay and live here, but we are afraid I’ll get bored quickly.
