Why you'll love it
Langkawi is an island group off Malaysia's northwest coast, known for sandy beaches, rainforest-covered mountains and mangroves. It scores 9 out of 10 for beaches and romance, and 8 for nature and safety, making it a relaxed island escape for couples and families.
The best time to visit Langkawi is December to March, the dry season, with sunny days and calm seas. The wetter months bring more rain but fewer visitors.
Pantai Cenang is the main beach, lined with restaurants and sunset bars. Ride the SkyCab cable car up Mount Mat Cincang to the curved Sky Bridge for views over the islands. Take a mangrove boat tour through the Kilim Geoforest Park, and visit the Seven Wells waterfall.
Langkawi suits couples, families and anyone wanting an easy island break.
