WELCOME TO KUAH LANGKAWI

Kuah Town, the largest town in Langkawi and also known as Bandar Kuah, is situated at the southeastern tip of the main island. It serves as the entry point for tourists arriving by ferry from the mainland or Penang Island. Unlike the serene beaches of Pantai Kok or Pantai Cenang, Kuah Town experiences slightly heavier traffic, making it a bustling hub for shopping and exploration. To reach Kuah Town from Langkawi International Airport, a straightforward 20-minute drive following the road signs is all it takes. Renting a car from a local agent is recommended for convenient island travel, but transport arrangements can be made through local agents or hotels if driving is inconvenient. For those interested in exploring the island's attractions, Esteem Lane Travel & Tours Sdn Bhd and Langkawi Discovery Sdn Bhd offer enticing round island day tours that take you to various places of interest in Langkawi. Kuah's transformation into a major town can be attributed to the influx of visitors after Langkawi evolved into a prominent tourist center in 1986.
