Burau Bay or Teluk Burau is a fairly secluded beach in Langkawi. While Burau Bay is regarded as a public beach, the crowd mostly consists of the patrons coming from the two resorts flanking on the opposite ends of this beach. The beach is estimated at 2-km long from one end to the other.
The water is pleasant enough to swim in and not as murky as most other beaches in Langkawi. In certain sections of the beach boast a fairly crystal-clear water which is considered a rare offering in the island of Langkawi.
The view from the beach is spectacular, with the jagged peaks of the Gunung Mat Chinchang nearby creates an awe-inspiring backdrop. A hive of water-based activities is normally conducted along the beach, mainly organised by the two resorts on Burau Bay. A number of beach chairs and umbrellas are provided on both ends of Burau Bay which are great for avid sun-worshippers.
Burau Bay is also a great location to view the sunset as well as the sunrise. It is probably one of the few beaches in Malaysia that geographically faces both the east and the west, albeit partially. The sunset was simply breathtaking. A combination of dark blue, pink, and purple dotted the horizon, making a memorable sunset watching experience.
To Get There:
By Taxi. 12 km to the International Airport (Langkawi)
