Frequently asked questions
Where exactly do I meet the boat?
The meeting point is Jetty Teluk Baru on Jalan Pantai Tengah, Langkawi. If you're staying in Pantai Cenang or Pantai Tengah, you'll be picked up from your hotel — no need to find the jetty yourself.
What's the difference between the morning and afternoon tours?
Both shared departures follow the same island route. The morning slot is popular for calmer seas and better wildlife lighting; the afternoon tour suits those who prefer a later start. Exact departure times are shown at booking.
Can I upgrade to include snorkelling or a BBQ lunch?
Yes — select the relevant ticket option at booking. Snorkelling takes place at Lion Marine Island, and the BBQ lunch is served there too. These are separate add-on options, not included in the standard shared tour.
Is this tour suitable for children?
The fish-feeding activity and beach stop at Beras Basah are particularly popular with families. Speedboat rides can be bumpy in choppy conditions, so very young children or those prone to motion sickness should be considered carefully.
What happens if the weather is bad?
The itinerary is subject to change due to weather and sea conditions. In the event of unsafe conditions, the operator may alter the route or stops. Check with the operator on the day if you have concerns.
How many people will be on the shared boat?
Shared departures operate on local speedboats with other travellers. If you prefer a boat exclusively for your group, private charters are available for up to 8, 12, or 16 passengers.
