Interesting place which can pay a visit @ Langkawi
Kilim Geoforest Park
Kilim Karst
Geoforest Park is one of the 3 park with World Geopark status given by UNESO in June 2007 which makes it one of the most popular tourist area in Langkawi
The geopark locates just
at the Kilim River
This area
actually consists of three river estuaries that stretch from the Kisap village
approximately 10 km to Tanjung Rhu and they are all interconnected. They are
rich in wildlife and tourists may see hairy nosed sea otters, brown winged
kingfishers, monitor lizards and swimming macaque monkeys. Limestone,
inherently porous, forms caves and there are several in the mangroves. One of
Langkawi's natural beauty spots is the Pirate Lagoon just outside the river which
it is a collapsed cave consisting of a cave entrance from the sea emerging into
a hidden lagoon with towering, limestone escarpments and smaller caves.
While enter you will see lots of mangrove tree by the side ....
Entrance fee as below.
Will have to take water taxies into the park
