Pantai Kok Attractions
What to See in Pantai Kok
Pantai Kok has a pleasant range of tourist attractions to grab your attention. Besides relaxing on its clean-as-a-whistle beach, you can also head to the elaborate Oriental Village which plays host to a great deal of tourist attractions. The stunning Mat Chincang Mountain forms the perfect backdrop in the distance while the Telaga Harbour wharf – home to gleaming mega-yachts – makes you go green with envy at the sight.
Even though Langkawi is a small island, this quarter of the island manages to offer visitors more than a few entertainment options. Home to upscale resorts and a yacht haven, the crowds here are invariably a mix of well-heeled foreigners. Tourist attractions are spread out over Pantai Kok’s wide expanse making a car or a tour guide absolutely essential if you’d like to visit them all.
Anna & The King Gallery
The only reason this exhibit warrants an entry is to warn Langkawi visitors that the Anna & The King Gallery has been dismantled. Which is actually an unfortunate loss considering the fact that it was actually a pretty good attraction. Displaying props and costumes from the 1999 film starring Jodie Foster – parts of which were shot at Pantai Kok – the maintenance costs of this attraction surpassed its novelty and authorities dismantled the set last year.
Falconry Encounters
To cut a long story short, falconry involves the use of trained birds of prey in sport or for game hunting. Animal Adventures in the Oriental Village has a falconry exhibit – featuring two local varieties of eagles – where you’ll get to take a look at some of Langkawi’s famous raptors.

Langkawi Bird Paradise
Officially an archipelago of 99 islands, Langkawi is one of Malaysia’s most popular holiday destinations. Most of the island’s sightseeing attractions are located on Pulau Langkawi – the 478sqkm main island; Pantai Cenang is known as the island’s go-to spot with the best beaches while Kuah is home to most of Langkawi’s duty-free stores. The island’s interior is a mountainous landscape with white-sand beaches and limestone outcrops; yet it’s not hard to visit most of the island’s locations – it’s less than an hour’s drive from one end of the island to the other.

Mat Chincang Mountains
