    Climate in Langkawi

    Langkawi is situated just 6 degrees north of the equator and has a humid maritime tropical climate that varies little throughout the year. Monsoon season used to be between June and October, but nowadays weather patterns are a little less predictable.

    Even during monsoon season it may only rain for half an hour or so, before the skies become clear again, so if you visit during that period it is unlikely that you will spend your holidays stuck inside all day watching the rain fall. You are much more likely to need sunglasses, a sun hat and sun-block than an umbrella. Average temperatures are between 25 and 35 Celcius. Mosquitoes are present, though malaria isn't really an issue.

    Accommodation

    There is a vast range of accommodation within easy walking to our studio. Pantai Cenang has many hotels, guest houses and chalets to suit all budgets.

    Among the more modest and reasonably priced guesthouses situated close by we recommend Gecko or Rainbow.

    Mid-range accommodation on the beach is available at AB Motel or Best Star hotel. The Best Motel across the road from these hotels has decent wooden chalets.

    If you are looking for top of the range splurge then you might like the Pelangi Beach Resort Hotel or Casa del Mar. During the low season their rates are usually a bit lower.

    This short video clip from our Langkawi Yoga Retreat will give you some idea what to expect.
