Highlights
  • Langkawi - Meet your driver at the Cruise Terminal or Langkawi hotel lobby (depending on your package choice) around 0830 - 0900 hours in the morning or 1330 - 1400 hours in the afternoon for the transfer to the jetty. Be sure to apply and bring enough sunblock to prevent sunburn and carry bottles of drinking water. Upon arrival at the jetty, you’ll board the boat and start your Langkawi island hopping adventure.
  • Pulau Singa Besar - Our first stop (while still on the boat near the island) is for eagle watching. The boatman will stop the engine and toss some chicken pieces into the water to attract the eagles. Soon, you’ll witness eagles diving down next to you, grabbing the chicken pieces, and soaring back into the sky.
  • Dayang Bunting Island - Next, we head to Pulau Dayang Bunting, which takes about 20 minutes to reach. This island features a stunning freshwater lake surrounded by mountains covered in dense forests. The lake was formed when a large underwater cave collapsed many years ago. You’ll also see impressive limestone formations. From the lake, if you look at the surrounding mountains, you can clearly see the outline of a woman lying on her back, appearing to be 6-7 months pregnant, which is how the lake got its name.

After enjoying Dayang Bunting Island and the lake for about 40 minutes, you’ll walk back to the island jetty to reboard your boat. The next stop is Pulau Singa Besar. The island’s name means “Island of Big Lions,” although there are no lions here; the name likely refers to its shape.

  • Beras Basah Island - Pulau Beras Basah is the final stop on the tour. You’ll have about an hour here. After a long day under the sun, you can relax under one of the many shady trees and enjoy the views with a gentle breeze. Alternatively, take a stroll along the old pier on the island.
  • Langkawi - After about an hour at Pulau Beras Basah, you’ll head back to the jetty and then return to your hotel or cruise terminal.

Good thing to do while in Langkawi - The tour departs from Jetty Marble which is right in Kuah. The pick up was efficient and it is something nice to do if you want to get out of the resort.

Worth it - If only for the eagle feeding, really breathtaking seeing the majestic bird swoop down & take the fish. Pregnant Maiden Island was also a nice experience, we’d certainly go again. Speedboat driver was also very safety conscious.

Awesome trip - perfect for the family - The weeping lady lake was a nice hike, the dip i the water helped to deal with the humidity. The final beach stop was excellent

One time visit.. - My mum and I went today at 9 am. Actually it was really good regarding the view and weather but one thing that killed the day was the boat. Not just our boat but in general the type of boats that drive you there is very bad and if someone is light in weight, he will be very tired after this day. The water is not clean to swim in, just like most Malaysia tbh. Alot of aggressive monkeys on both islands and they can hurt anyone who has a plastic bag or any sign of food. I actually don't recommend it at all.

Lovely place but too busy - we booked this ourselves and they just throw as many as possible in one boat, the driver was as miserable as sin and as soon as we got the eagles he was off, ok for the money i suppose.

Disappointing! - So the boat takes you to 3 places which literally has nothing! In the first island, a part of the water has been demarcated for children/ family to swim, in the second, you are taken to a mid point of the sea where the driver feeds the eagle ( yes, that's it) and in the third, you are given sometime to swim on the beach. It is an okay trip if you really have nothing to do in Langkawi but otherwise can be avoided. You won't miss anything!
