Langkawi Island Hopping Tour

*A very backdated post*

 

Daddy reminded me that I did not finish blogging about our trip to Langkawi in August last year. Okay, now I recall I did the same to our Bangkok trip too!! Gosh.. Okay, okay.. gotta play catch up now..

 

 

We went for Island Hopping Tour the next morning we arrived in Langkawi.  Tickets were purchased from a tour agency across our hotel at RM25 each (Adults) and RM20 (Children)  the night before (they open until 12 midnight). 

 

 

Other tours offered by the tour operator

 

Wanted to play one of these with the boy but weather was not in our favour. :( 

Nevermind, there's always next time. :)

 

We boarded the boat from this beach near Awana Porto Malai Resort

 

The boy got a seat at the side but later convinced by his dad to sit in the centre

for safety reasons

Our journey started.. Woohoo...  Berjaya Porto Malai from far. 

We stayed here on our 1st trip to Langkawi.

 

Passing by a cruise ship

 

and a yacht...

 

With the speed of the boat accelerating, the sea water splashes not only onto

my camera but the camera woman! To the extent I kept sampling the water and my mind kept telling me how salty the water was!! 

 

Approaching our first destination... Pulau Beras Basah where we had

an hour to lepak (stroll) before zooming off to the next destination.

 

The water here is so clear that you can see tiny fishes..

 

A monkey welcoming its guests on the bridge..

 

Poor monkey.. wonder how this can opening got stuck in one of his paws

 

Smile...

 

Some young lass making MTV on the beach, I guess

 

I spotted one big "orang utan", clothes on somemore! LOL..

 

This monkey hesitating but eager to get to a father and son who were deeper in the water.  Apparently it has the most interest in the bag of food that the father held in his hand. 

 

I so love the view of the 4Ss here... Sun, Sky, Sand, Sea...

 

Next destination: Eagle feeding. 

 

The eagles flies graciously in the sky, I didn't manage to get the photos of them zooming down to grab the food.  They did but only once or twice which I missed.  According to our boat operator, they had been fed enough food before us. 

 

Next: Pulau Dayang Bunting.   Approaching the island.  Can you see a pregnant woman in a lying down position from far..

 

Arrived at the jetty.  Another hour for us to explore the island..

 

Took quite a bit of walking up and down the stairs before we got here.

 

The boy was eagered to swim in the lake but I stopped him.  I am hopeless in swimming and daddy was not feeling so well that morning. 

 

So he ended up dipping in the pool

 

When it was about time to say goodbye, again we had to repeat how we got here. *puff puff*

 

The island hopping tour was the highlight of our Langkawi trip and with only RM25 per pax, we had so much fun!  I believe this price is the cheapest around town.  It's a must go tour if you haven't been on one.
