Teluk Yu, Langkawi

The esplanade at Teluk Yu, Langkawi (6 June, 2005)


Teluk Yu (GPS: 6.42138, 99.7755) is a bay between Pantai Pasir Hitam and Pantai Pasir Tengkorak on the north side of Pulau Langkawi, about 19 kilometers from Kuah town. Although the name Teluk Yu means Bay of Sharks, it is really a serene stretch of beach overlooking the Tarutao Islands of South Thailand.

The chief attraction at Teluk Yu is the Langkawi Craft Cultural Complex, set up to showcase Malaysia's diverse cultural heritage through handicrafts. Available for sale are the intricately wovan basketware and fabrics. The complex also houses the Royal Museum, the Islamic Museum and the Heritage Museum.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
