Mangrove Safari Geopark Tours

Geopark River Cruise Safari Mangrove Tours

Several areas of mangrove forests can be found all over Langkawi. The forests comprise networks of waterways and coves that are habitats to a profusion of endemic wildlife.
The mangrove forests in the north-eastern part of Langkawi island are dominated by Rhizophora apiculata and Ceriops tagal, and cover an area of 1,987 hectares that is drained by three major rivers, namely, Sg. Kisap, Sg. Air Hangat and Sg. Kilim

Geopark Island Hopping

This trip is by a fast boat which will take four hours to cover 3 islands.
One of the island that you will stopover is the Pulau Dayang Bunting (Island of the Pregnant Maiden) with the Pregnant Maiden Lake (a freshwater lake).

The sprinkling of jade green islands that make up Pulau Payar lie just 30km south- east of Langkawi. From here, it is a 1-hour boat ride out to the best marine park on Malaysia's West Coast, making it an ideal choice for a day outing.
