Langkawi Nightlife – The Best Bars in Langkawi Island Malaysia
Don’t expect wild nightlife in Langkawi Island. This tranquil island does have a nightlife scene though don’t expect wild nightclub parties until dawn. The nightlife on Langkawi Island is more chilled out with some nice bars along the beach to watch the sunset, sit back with a nice cocktail and chill out to some live music. Most of the nightlife in Langkawi is found in Pantai Cenang (Chenang Beach) or Pantai Tengah (Tengah Beach) which are the 2 busiest towns on Langkawi. Here is our pick for the best bars in Langkawi:
