DUTY FREE ISLAND

Although most of the touristic items are already duty free in Malaysia, Langkawi remain the regional shopping hub for duty-free goods, offering both international and local products. Most of the island’s shopping opportunities are found in its central commercial area – the town of Kuah. Here, you will find many stores and malls dedicated to providing the lowest prices of tax-free goods.

Other than Kuan town, Pantai Cenang is a haven for tourist shopping as the entire beach road is lined with shops and stalls on both sides. These shops sell mostly souvenirs in the form of fashion accessories, beads, handicrafts and merchandise but there are also many convenience stores.

Pantai Tengah is close to several shopping opportunities. Besides the souvenir shops along the beach itself, one can head to the Zon Duty-Free Shopping Complex in Underwater World Langkawi or Padang Mat Sirat which is more vibrant and has a good selection of concept stores.

Langkawi is a shopping paradise for duty-free goods from around the world. Kuah Town has the highest concentration of shopping centers and shop lots that retail duty-free goods and souvenirs. From the jetty to the town center, visitors will be spoilt for choice when it comes to finding the right place to shop.
