Plan Your Langkawi Holiday

There are many reasons to travel to Langkawi, an island chain officially known as the ‘Jewel of Kedah’. The area was named a World GeoPark by UNESCO in 2007 due to its diverse and stunning landscape. The numerous mountains, spectacular beaches, breathtaking waterfalls, extensive cave systems and fantastic tourism infrastructure make this area an absolute must. Another reason to come here is the fact that the island was designated as a duty free area by the Malaysian government, which makes it an inexpensive place to shop to your heart’s content, so you may want to bring an extra suitcase.

Typically the rainy season runs from March to November, with the wettest month being August. This is considered off season for tourists and cheap hotels in Langkawi are easy to find. December to February is the dry season and we recommend that you buy your tickets to Langkawi early during these months. Flight deals to Langkawi are always easy to find no matter what time of year with Etihad’s Deals section.
