Situated 30km off the coast at the very northwestern tip of the Peninsula is a cluster of 104 tropical islands, the largest of which is PULAU LANGKAWI . Pulau Langkawi has seen unparalleled development in recent years: some of the country's most luxurious hotels are here, and there's a new airport, but the mountainous interior, white sands, limestone outcrops and lush vegetation have remained relatively unspoiled. The principal town on Pulau Langkawi is Kuah , a boom town of hotels and shops in the southeast of the island. The main tourist development has taken place around two bays on the western side of the island, at Pantai Tengah and Pantai Cenang . Of these, Cenang is by far the most commercialized, but has some budget accommodation. The best beach on the island is at Pantai Kok in the west, though there is no budget accommodation here.
