3 Best Seafood Restaurants in Langkawi

The best seafood restaurants in Langkawi offer a combination of well-executed delicacies, an extensive beverage menu, a relaxing dining experience, and great views of the Andaman Sea. As a popular tropical getaway, Langkawi's culinary scene features some of the best seafood in Malaysia, thanks to the abundance of fishing villages along the coastline.

Langkawi's top seafood restaurants are mostly well-established (and often packed) eateries within the island's busier districts, such as Pantai Cenang and Kuah. However, we have found a couple of hidden gems within Pantai Kok's traditional villages for diners who prefer a more tranquil setting. Read on to find the one that best suits your budget and preference.
