6 Pleasant

The beach was previously overcrowded and littered, both on the shore and in the surrounding areas, including the car park, trees, and abandoned bungalows. However, upon returning a week later, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the beach had been cleaned up and the litter removed. Despite the cleanup, the beach remained busy. The water was crystal clear and the sand was fine, making it a stunning sight to behold. Additionally, the beach was easily accessible.

This charming beach with crystal-clear waters and a serene atmosphere, with a sparse crowd that allows for a peaceful retreat. However, it's important to note that the water can be quite deep, so exercise caution when taking a dip.

I must say, this beach is truly remarkable and offers an incredible swimming experience. However, it's important to be cautious of the mischievous monkeys that roam around as they may snatch your belongings, just like how they got away with my slippers. Overall, it's definitely one of the most impressive beaches I've ever laid eyes on.

We stumbled upon an amazing beach during our Langkawi trip that turned out to be the highlight of our vacation. It was easily accessible and surpassed all the other beaches we visited in terms of beauty and serenity.
