Langkawi - Jellyfish

Mark: 1 Sept 2010 / By SEREAN LAU -The Star

" LANGKAWI: Improper dumping of sewage and the disappearance of turtles has caused an explosion in the jellyfish population which is threatening tourism here. In the first 21 days of July alone, 185 cases of jellyfish attacks on tourists and residents including fishermen were recorded and this is becoming a cause of concern to the Langkawi Development Authority (Lada)."

Hi guys,

I think jellyfishes stories in Langkawi are quite jaw dropping. I was browsing through the internet and here is an example;

http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowTopic-g29...kawi_Kedah.html

Imagine deaths by jelly fish are never reported in the news and also classified as drowning VINEGAR, VINEGAR and VINEGAR is a must carry item now if you want to swim in Pantai Cenang or Pantai Tengah.

Hey... need soem suggestions to those who have been to langkawi before.
My frens and i plannin go for 3d2nights trip. But we undecided about the packages offered by the hotel.
I think maximum we can only choose 2 packages because no time. But there are four packages
1) langkawi day discovery - main thin is the cable car thingy
2) island hopping
3) mangrove swamp
4) snorkel at pulau payar

Reading all the descriptions made us quite undecided so i just want to ask any fellow lyn members to give suggestions. Is island hopping nice? because my fren's father didn't suggest us to go for it.

EDIT: oh yea... will be staying at hotel bahagia. don't know where is it in pulau langkawi. should rent a car or not?

Hotel Bahagia is right smack in town near Kamdar. Further down is Restoran Wan Thai which I have always recommended to Muslim forummers. It is just beside Affin Bank and near the duty free shopping but a better shopping area is still Pandak Mayah area.

Mangrove tours is a must to enjoy nature at it's best and island hopping is a must if Tasik Dayang Bunting is interesting to you. Cable car is also something most won't miss and Pulau Payar if you really like snorkelling or diving. I think you can give P.PAyar a miss. It is not so nice anymore, the corals are bleached and the ferry trip agonising! To suffer for beautiful corals and clear waters is OK but then now conditions in P.Payar is bad. The other 3 , I think it is a must! Try to fit in all.

You can rent a car and do one of it on your own. I am sure there are free time.

Hi!
Anyone have the info about the water sports in Langkawi => Jet Ski and Parasailing? Pricing?

Thanks a lot!

At pantai cenang, parasailing is RM50.
Jet ski is RM100 for 30 minutes. I think 15 minutes is RM60.
Also got banana boat.

I'll be there again this year for a relaxing trip..

So, any good contact for car rental? I just want a small car (cheap is the key) because it'll not be used alot as we have done all the tourist thing over there, this is just to relax and take it slow trip

So, hp num pls!
