SkyCab + Sky Bridge Oriental Village — buy tickets online, first slot 9:30am. Queue 60+ min by 11am Dec–Feb. Sky Bridge extra RM6 walk or RM16 skyglide. Afternoon clouds hide views. Half day minimum.

Kilim mangrove boat tour — bat cave, eagle feeding (ethical debate aside, spectacular), fish farm floating lunch. Group tour RM60–80, private boat RM300 split 4 ways. Tanjung Rhu jetty or book pickup from Cenang. 3–4 hours.

Duty-free Langkawi since 1986 — chocolate, liquor, perfume cheaper than mainland. Kuah Jetty Point + Cenang duty-free shops. Stock up before flight out. Eagle Square photo stop, 30 min enough.

Tanjung Rhu beach — clear water, few crowds, resorts along strip. Pantai Cenang for restaurants/nightlife, Tanjung Rhu for actual beach day. Rent car RM60/day — island spread out, Grab works but adds up.

Fly LGK direct or ferry from Kuala Kedah/Perlis (slow). 3–4 days ideal: Day1 Cenang, Day2 SkyCab, Day3 mangrove + island hop, Day4 duty-free + Tanjung Rhu. UNESCO geopark status — limestone is half a billion years old, not just beach resort.
