July 11, 2021 Layne Dawes

Kedah (Malay pronunciation: [kəˈdɑh]; Jawi: قدح), also known by its honorific Darul Aman or "Abode of Peace", is a state of Malaysia, located in the northwestern part of Peninsular Malaysia. The state covers a total area of over 9,000 km², and it consists of the mainland and Langkawi. The mainland has a relatively flat terrain, which is used to grow rice. Langkawi is an archipelago of islands, most of which are uninhabited. Kedah was called Kadaram (Tamil: கடாரம்; kadāram) by ancient and medieval Tamil people and Syburi (Thai: ไทรบุรี; RTGS: Sai Buri) by the Siamese when it was under their influence.

Kilim Karst Geoforest Park

Reviewed By Pigletau

We booked the day tour with lunch included thru our resort with Dev's Adventure Tours. It was a superbly informative tour which brought us to the Bat Caves, Crocodile Cave, thru the estuaries, where the very experienced Skipper spotted a Swamp Viper resting and well-camouflaged on the low branches of the mangrove tree. We saw loads of long-tailed macaques along the shores and were then given an informative lesson on the different mangrove tree species and the history of Langkawi and the importance of mangroves. We then proceeded to spot Kites and White-Bellied Eagles where we also witnessed their feeding. The guide also explained why there was feeding and how the feeding is controlled in a way that does not render the birds incapable of hunting for their own food. We then looked at the various stone formations as we traversed along the estuary before heading to Tanjong Rhu Beach for a short 20 mins before adjourning for lunch at a floating restaurant. We were also brought on a exciting ride against the waves of the open Andaman Sea on this trip. It was half a day well-spent and a wonderful history cum geography lesson coming alive thru the rich biodiversity we witnessed. It is highly recommended that you take a morning to explore the Kilim Geoforest and I would recommend that you do so with Dev's Adventure Tour.

Children can not get enough of these prehistoric looking animals to view and see how they live. Adults also get a kick when they see how crocodiles behave and fed in their natural environment. This is why the Crocodile Adventureland on Langkawi is a hit among adults and children.

Put together really well with literally hundreds of crocodiles, all sorts of exhibits and knowledgeable English-speaking guides(some trouble communicating occasionally, but always got the answer in the end). Between feeding the baby crocodiles, looking at genetic anomalies, a 15 plus foot croc sunbathing and dozens of 4-meter crocs walking and swimming around, the feeding shows and stunt shows, plus a free meal for a very reasonably priced ticket(you can stay there all day if you like), I can't give less than five stars.

Great for kids. Got the family package tickets that came with 2 bags of animal feed. Lots of animal interactions where you get to touch and feed animals. From raccoons to golden python, rabbits to lovebirds, deer to ostriches, crocodile feeding show to sea eagle feeding show. Each enclosure will state if you are allowed to feed the animal and what you can feed.

Very beautiful beach, quite clean and very calm. Went here very early in the morning with no people around. Walk to the right of the beach where you will reach sandy beach with small jetty and there is this small British Bunker hidden between the beach. Nice place to relax and enjoy the beautiful view.
