Hazydavo Posted November 4, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Langkawi, officially known as Langkawi the Jewel of Kedah (Malay: Langkawi Permata Kedah) is an archipelago of 104 islands in the Andaman Sea, some 30 km off the mainland coast of northwestern Malaysia. The islands are a part of the state of Kedah, which is adjacent to the Thai border. On 15 July 2008, Sultan Abdul Halim of Kedah had consented to the change of name to Langkawi Permata Kedah in conjunction with his Golden Jubilee Celebration. By far the largest of the islands is the eponymous Langkawi Island with a population of some 64,792, the only other inhabited island being nearby Tuba Island. Langkawi is also an administrative district with the town of Kuah as largest town. Langkawi is a duty-free island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joandian Posted November 6, 2015 #10 Share Posted November 6, 2015 We were supposed to be on her all the way to Barcelona to Freo but had to cancel due to a change in work rosters. Very disappointing, especially since I've heard from friends on board that they are having a fantastic time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
