Datai Beach is considered as the most exclusive beach in Langkawi island. Situated in the north-west of the island, it is way off the main road but it offers gorgeous sights, including a view of Thailand’s coast-line on a clear day. Besides beaching yourself, you can also explore the surrounding tropical rainforest and admire the gems of Malaysia’s natural heritage.
