Swimming at Pantai Cenang
The longest beach in Langkawi
Pantai Cenang is probably the busiest resort on Langkawi Island. There is the longest beach with snow-white sand, about one and a half kilometers long. During the day there are only a minimum of people – mostly tourists from countries other than Malaysia. It really comes alive in the evening when the locals gather here. A number of accommodation facilities line the beach, and behind them is the main road with lots of restaurants, souvenir shops and other shops.
At Cenang Beach
The beach is not only long, but also wide. There are only a few sunbeds here, so they don't get in the way. There are also several places that offer water sports – jet skis, etc.
A pleasant beach without crowds
Even in high season there is plenty of space. If you know overcrowded Spanish, Italian or Greek beaches, where it is almost impossible to get to the water through sunbeds and umbrellas – then this is not a risk here
View of the islands
To the south and west there are a number of smaller islands on which there is still original vegetation
Coast from the sea
Even here, bigger and bigger hotels are still being built – a shame.
Langkawi hotels with swimming pool
In the sea around Langkawi, there can be periods when there is an overabundance of plankton or stinging jellyfish, so it is better to always book a hotel with a pool to be safe. In Pantai Cenang you can try, for example, Malibest Resort .
Seafood restaurant
There is an abundance of all kinds of restaurants on the main street. Those that offer seafood have a large selection of lobsters, crabs and fish
Pantai Cenang Center
The center of the city is Dataran Chenang Square, where it really comes alive in the evening
