Trip to Langkawi - Part 2

Our second destination in Langkawi was Kuah.
Here we stayed at the 'Best Seven Inn' for 3 nights.The location of this motel is very convenient as the Eagle Square, Lagenda park , night market , street food , duty free shopping are all located at short distances from this place.



The first attraction we visited was the Langkawi Wildlife park. Din't find anything great about it , maybe because we visit the Singapore zoo too often!

 
 




That evening , went to the Eagle square.Some good photo ops here!






The same evening Kuah was hoisting its night market.One can try the local street food here.







The next day went on the half day 3 island hopping tour.This is a popular boat tour and everyone enjoyed it , especially the speed boat ride.



The 3 islands this tour covers are ...Beras basah island - The name literally means "Island of wet rice". This is a picture perfect island with far reaching views of the sea and wonderful soft white sands. It's a great place for the beach lovers and swimmers.


 



the second island is Pulau Singa Besar , here you get to watch a fantastic natural show - the Eagle Feeding.You can see numerous golden brown eagles swooping down from the sky and feeding on fish.You actually do not get off and remain seated at the boat while watching this spectacle.










The last island was Pulau Dayang Bunting or the Island of pregnant lady . A total of 1 hour is given to you to spend here. This includes 10 to 12 minutes one-way walk up the long flight of stairs to go up the mountain and down from the other side to reach the wonderful Lake of the Pregnant Woman, and same way back. So come prepared for this nice trek and carry water bottles.



















The Kauh stay was memorable....especially the local Malay sea food !
