Seven Wells Waterfall and Black Sand Beach - Langkawi, Malaysia
December 12th 2011 01:33
Around Langkawi are beautiful waterfalls and beaches. A walk to Seven Wells Waterfall is a must do. If you're not a hiking enthusiast, then a five minute trek up the hill and along a path can get you to the base of the waterfall, otherwise it's a little over 600 steps up a steep set of stairs to get you to the top where the waterfalls get their legendary name. It's believed the pools at the top are where fairies come to bathe.
Keep your eye on your belongings, because there are monkeys about, but they generally keep to the trees and off the paths. Other waterfalls such as Temerun Waterfall & Langkawi Fall are a short drive away.
Recommended beaches in Langkawi away from the resorts are Pasir Tengkorak Beach and Black Sand Beach. These beaches have soft white sand, uninterrupted views of clear blue seas and a few distant rock formations and islands. It's quiet on these beaches, with barely a soul in sight. A couple of people maintain the toilet facilities, so expect to pay a small amount to use them.
The island also has a cable car that reaches the island's highest peak. For a spot of duty free shopping, head to the south of the island where they have two shopping centres. During your visit, try the "iced teh tarik" (iced tea with sweetened milk), a local Malaysian drink that's great for the hot weather.
