Langkawi is not necessarily a top-priority destination for birders, but it still offers some great species that can be observed quite easily. Since it is a fairly touristy destination, it’s best to go birding early in the morning to avoid the crowds. Sunrise is, in any case, the best time to watch birds. One of the island’s strengths is its wide variety of habitats : coastline, forest, and rice fields. Which makes it home to a very diverse range of species!
