After grabbing a thirst quencher on the ship, passengers can sample some munchies and enjoy the fresh sea breezes as the boat heads out to sea. Later, grab your swimming trunks and dip into the warm waters of the ‘saltwater Jacuzzi’ – a trawling net attached to the side of the boat serving as a safety harness that you can laze about in as the boat sets out.

The icing on the cake is the delicious barbecue spread set out for dinner – the cuisine is varied, from chicken wings to fried noodles, and tantalisingly mouth watering. An extremely popular tour in Langkawi: hands down, it is the best way to see the archipelago.

The Langkawi Sunset Cruise came about because out of the entire cluster of approximately 100 islets, only two are inhabited. Most visitors to Langkawi spend their days on the beaches or exploring popular sightseeing sights such as Mahsuri’s Tomb or the Telaga Air Panas hot springs. Though there were numerous island-hopping tours that took visitors to islets such as Pulau Dayang Bunting, Pulau Singa Besar and Pulau Beras Basah, tour operators decided to showcase them from a whole new angle: thus the Langkawi Sunset Cruise was created.
