- Akshay N13 contributionsA beautiful quant beach with lots of adventure activities. The summer is warm and the sun is usually warm till 6:30 pm. After that time beautiful activities and good food is available.Written June 28, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Katherine D15 contributionsWent on a windy day and so there was a cooling on-shore breeze. Made for a few waves on the beach and there was an out-going tide with a rip, so not ideal for swimming, Relatively clean, but the neighbouring jetty for the mangrove tours was disgusting, full of rubbish along the shoreline. A massive cleanup is needed, an embarrassment.Written June 9, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Margriet RSalt Spring Island, Canada201 contributionsNice falls with shady pools to splash in. A hot walk up but worth it if you want to see nature on Langkawi.Written February 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Patricia050875Singapore, Singapore567 contributionsThere was a carnival going on when I visited the Eagle Square. There was a big stage and many tentage so the photos of the eagle square which I had taken was totally different from what I have seen online. It was nice to see carnival n activities and stores selling the locally produced item.Written May 29, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Margriet RSalt Spring Island, Canada201 contributionsA long walk up on badly maintained trail but fun to experience to swim in COLD water in Malaysia. Too bad the park is not better maintained for visitors. This is my favorite waterfall of all the ones on Langkawi.Written February 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Heli PHelsinki, Finland6,339 contributionsThe shorter stretch of the two beaches by the yet to be opened Park Royal hotel has other upmarket accomodation too. It is more quiet with fewer restaurants and hardly any shops.Written February 2, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ThomFuMalaysia99 contributionsI think Pasir Tengkorak really needs some TLC from the authorities. The toilets were locked and the showers were not working when I was there. But that said, this little beach is GREAT for a morning swim, when the waves aren't too big. The sand is incredibly soft too. It's also far away from touristy areas, which means you'll get to enjoy more of the beach! Beach bums will definitely LOVE this place. P/S: I came here during the low season, so maybe your experience will be different at different times of the year.Written July 3, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lindy LWiltshire, UK129 contributionsThis is where you take the cable car. I don't do cable cars so spent an hour and a half here while my husband did. Very pleasant. Non tacky tourist shops, cafes and a pleasant stroll round. Plenty of shade. I didn't want to do the 3d art museum.Written March 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Margriet RSalt Spring Island, Canada201 contributionsNice waterfalls that give a glimpse of nature on Langkawi. Too bad the park is not better maintained. The falls themselves are beautiful, in dense jungle with safe swimming in the pool at the bottom.Written February 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- otilia_pianoSingapore, Singapore173 contributionsWe have been at Atma Batik Village with our kids on a rainy afternoon to do their batik painting activity and we really enjoyed it. The staff is very friendly, we got to choose the batik patern and they provide the fabric painting. The price is 30 MYR per fabric. We have been briefly taught how to use the colours, how to dilute and combine the primary colours. Allow at least 1 hour to complete the painting and 10 min for drying. They are selling also some nice items inside, unfortunately the shop was closing and we didn't get much time to look around, but bought some lovely handmade table napkins. It would be nice to have someone explain more about their workshop and about batik technique. Overall it's a good experience especially for families with kids or art loversWritten March 4, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AbhimanyuSinghiLudhiana, India316 contributionsIts just another mall with a Starbuck, Old Town Coffee, KFC, money changer and a few other shops. Very clean though. And the money changer here has the best rates.Written December 26, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ruthandvernWilton, CA15,415 contributionsThis very large park has a number of historical myth stories carried out in sign and design statues, etc. That was interesting, the park is mostly clean - littered somewhat. The sad part is the water features are not to be enjoyed due to lack of rain. That is sad. The upside was our stumbling upon a troop of Dusky Leaf monkeys passing through. Got a great video of a momma carrying her baby up a tree while the others frolicked in the area. That was Awesome!!!Written February 26, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Mskfan03Singapore, Singapore72 contributionsIt's indeed a peaceful place.
As always temples are amazing! It was just too hot, whatever time of the day you go there will be very very hot, but we've still enjoyed it.
Managed to arrange one van rental for our tour.Written April 28, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
