Located
on the north-west coast of Peninsula Malaysia
close to the Thai border, Langkawi is
a mystical island of wild scenic beauty
and aquamarine seas. It is the largest
in an archipelago of 104 islands scattered
across the Andaman sea, separated from
the mainland by the Straits of Malacca.
A natural paradise, Langkawi boasts tall
forested mountains, centuries-old limestone
caves, majestic waterfalls and white sand
beaches. Its past is swathed with legends
of romance and mystery.
Two-thirds
of the island is covered by hills and natural
vegetation providing the perfect landscape
for jungle trekking and cool forest walks.
Its spectacular coastline, the nearby islands
and the cool, clear waters of the Andaman
sea provide an environment ideally suited
to exploring by boat. The nearby Pulau Payar,
Malaysias magnificent marine park,
offers the wonders of spectacular coral
gardens.
The
Datai is just 30 minutes from Langkawi International
Airport.
