Langkawi

After Singapore we decided to fly to Langkawi which is part of a cluster of islands in the Andaman sea. We'd heard & read that it is the most amazing beach resort in Malaysia. As we're not into beaches really we were going to skip it, only we were a bit intrigued so decided at the last minute to see this tropical paradise. 
After landing at Langkawi airport we took a 10 minute taxi ride (no buses or trains were evident) to Pantai Cenang. This is the island’s most developed stretch and we'd booked a hotel just across the road from the beach.
It turned out to be a kind of chalet with a porch we attracted some sweet mangey cats for some reason.

The water was warm but still refreshing

We sat under those white umbrellas
