The Star Cruises Jetty at Pulau Langkawi, the island of legends, serves as a
gateway to the northern parts of Malaysia. It is also an excellent point for
tourists bound for Southern Thailand and the beautiful Andaman Islands.
Pulau Langkawi is located off the west coast of the state of Kedah, north-west
of Peninsular Malaysia. It offers idyllic relaxation with its pristine beaches,
resort hotels, legendary tales and rustic charm. There is a pleasant blend of
the modern with its laid-back "kampung" feel of the island.
There are many attractions here on the island, natural and mystical, thus giving
you a good combination of culture and natural beauty.
The Jetty began operations in August 1997 and supported by Awana Porto Malai
Resort Langkawi, it has been the site since 1997 for the Langkawi International
Maritime and Aerospace (LIMA) Exhibition, a world class biennial international
event. These served the massive congregation of more than 45,000 visitors and
over 50 naval ships, submarines, mega-yachts and boats from the four corners of
the world.
The Jetty in Pulau Langkawi is complemented by the development of Awana Porto
Malai, a Mediterranean-themed resort, "a la Porto Fino" to instill the true
beauty of the island surroundings.
However, not unlike our Port Klang Terminal, this combination also offers many
facilities and amenities for the comfort and convenience of our passengers.

Langkawi - Sights & Sounds
Enjoy nature at the Telaga Tujuh Waterfalls. Fresh water cascades down from a height of 91m through a series of seven pools. Truly a natural wonder.
The Crocodile Farm, housing more than 1,000 crocodiles, is a 'must see'. Watch man & crocodile wrestle each other in their daily shows.
Lake of the Pregnant Maiden - Located in Dayang Bunting Island off Langkawi, this scenic freshwater lake is ideal for boating and swimming. Legend has it that a childless couple after 19 years of unsuccessful efforts, had a baby after drinking water from this lake.
Lagenda Park is a 20 hectare beautiful landscaped park with a fantastic view of the nearby islands. This park features a giant eagle statue, sculptures based on local folklore and lagoons. A duty free shopping complex is also located adjacent to the park.
