The Telaga Harbour Park is a beautiful yachting marina that was
developed by the Langkawi Development Authority (LADA). Initially the
area was a fishing village, but was later transformed into a prime
tourist attraction. To be found on the southwest coast of Langkawi in
Pantai Kok, the marina was built to promote the island as a major
sailing destination. This beautifully-landscaped harbor is designed like
the French Riviera.
The Park is sprawled in an area of 32 acres, and thus, is exclusively
designed for berthing yachts of various sizes ranging from small sized
yachts to mega size yachts. On the whole, 50 yachts of 20meter can be
accommodated here. However, if the yachts are of larger size (30 to 50
meters), seven such yachts can be berthed. The stationed yachts provide
a pictorial backdrop to the entire setting of the park.
It also consists of a 36 meters pontoon for fishing boasts. The harbour
makes a safe place for international yachts to dock since it is
sheltered. Moreover, the available services and facilities, like petrol
pump, bank with ATM machines, mini mart and bakery store, make it an
ideal destination for transient and home base of yachts. It is a
complete entertainment zone together with good music and food at the
cafes and bistros sited along the harbor.
Appreciate the quaint sunset from the terrace of Mare Blu or the beach.
Besides, try your hand at the water activities, sailing and boating in
the sparking waters. For sure, a visit to this park would be absolutely
cherishing. Annually, the International Water Festival of Langkawi is
held in Telaga Harbour Park. Encircled by tropical rainforest and white
sandy beach, Telaga Harbour Marina is a prefect place to enjoy in the
serene environment.
