St Regis Langkawi, a kid-friendly destination
Escape to sunshine and fresh air on a lush, green tropical island, surrounded by the Andaman Sea and pristine virgin rainforest, where children will relish the various fun and educational activities Langkawi has to offer.
Just a short drive from The St. Regis Langkawi, families can enjoy the Oriental Village, with its many family-oriented activities. Children can roll around in inflatable clear balls on the water, known as Zorbs, bumping, falling, laughing and bonding throughout the adventure, whilst zip lines invite the more adventurous to glide across the pond.
Located within the Oriental Village is Malaysia’s largest 3D art museum featuring more than one hundred 3d paintings. Highly interactive, there are opportunities to pose with the incredible artworks and the children will have a ball.
The Langkawi SkyCab cable car, the steepest in the world, is an adventure not to be missed for the whole family. Families can choose a regular gondola, or for something a bit more daring, try the glass-bottom gondola, to best view the treetops and jungle far below.
At 125 meters long, the Langkawi SkyBridge is the world’s longest curved bridge. It is located 660 meters above sea level, offering incredible, panoramic views and is accessed from the top station of the Langkawi SkyCab.
Animal lovers will enjoy the Bird Paradise Wildlife Park, complete with white peacocks, monkeys, rabbits, ostriches, porcupines and mouse deer; and a trip to Underwater World, including a 15-meter walkthrough aquarium tunnel.
Langkawi is home to one of the best-preserved mangrove forests anywhere in the world and a visit would not be complete without a guided Mangrove Tour, where the family boards boats to see lush mangroves with their over-hanging Bogak Trees, wild monkeys, eagles, crabs and bat caves.
For an educational and immensely fun experience, the Rice Paddy Tour located at Laman Padi, near Gemalai Village allows the kids to get down and dirty whilst learning all about how rice is grown.
For an exhilarating, unforgettable experience, families can enjoy a unique bird’s-eye-view of the picturesque Langkawi archipelago with the exclusive helicopter island tour, offered only at The St. Regis Langkawi. For families wanting to take a more serene approach to exploring, boats depart from the Yacht Club for fun-filled Island Hopping adventures.
