Pulau Beras Basah
A white-sand islet at the last stop of the island-hopping trip, with clear shallow water, ideal for swimming, sunbathing and monkey-watching.
Pulau Beras Basah lies south of Langkawi's main island and is the final stop on the classic three-island hopping tour, preceded by Pregnant Maiden Lake and the Eagle Feeding Point. It has fine white sand and emerald shallow waters, and visitors usually stay about an hour to swim and rest. The island has basic food stalls and toilets. Long-tailed macaques are plentiful and will snatch plastic bags and snacks, so keep an eye on your belongings. Island-hopping tours depart from Cenang Beach and cost about RM30-50 per person for a half-day, or you can charter a boat. There is no shade on the island, so bring sun protection.
