Destination Essentials

With consistently pleasant temperatures ranging between 25 and 34 degrees Celsius, Langkawi can be visited at any time of the year. However, for a holiday that combines sightseeing with beach relaxation, the dry season from January to March is an ideal time. During these months, the absence of rain, long hours of sunshine, and average temperatures around 34°C make for a perfectly laid-back vacation.

For budget travellers, the monsoon season from September to October offers an excellent opportunity. Despite the heavy rains, the island's natural environment flourishes beautifully, and the limited tourist crowd adds to the charm of a quiet, romantic holiday.
