1. Arked Punggai Beach
Big waves and strong winds characterize this long stretch of beach, where a few resorts are located. Generously shaded by a line of trees, it’s an easy beach to laze the day away on while snoozing and reading with occasional dips to cool off. Locals like to fly kites here because of the steady winds. Amenities: showers, toilets, camping. Best for: solitude, walking.

2. Batu Layar Beach
A quieter alternative to the busier Desaru Beach, Batu Layar Beach (Sail Rock) is a wide, sandy virgin beach characterized by its sail-shaped rock, a submerged reef with a staghorn coral field. A tranquil spot, it's the perfect place for a picnic and offers easy swimming in the turquoise water. The beach may be closed during monsoon season. Amenities: Showers; toilets. Best for: swimming, camping, solitude.

3. Pulau Payar Marine Park
If you've never been snorkeling, the perfect way to experience it for the first time is with a day trip out to Pulau Payar Marine Park, 19 nautical miles off the southern tip of Langkawi. Made up of four islands, the park was established in 1985 as the first marine park in Malaysia. A floating platform off Pulau Payar houses an underwater observation chamber where you can view the marine life surrounding the reef—perfect even for nonswimmers. Everyone else can dive under and get a first-hand look at various types of coral and brightly colored fish. Keep in mind that during public holidays in China, this is a popular activity and can get very crowded. Given the option, it is well worth springing for the buffet lunch package rather than the bagged lunch. Langkawi Coral is one of the main tour operators for the park and can help organize day trips.
