Langkawi

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.
