"Langkawi is particularly known for its beaches which are among the best in Malaysia. Some of the most popular are Pantai Cenang, Pantai Tengah, Burau Bay, Pantai Kok, and Datai Bay. Pantai Cenang is a picturesque beach with seemingly unending stretches of fine white sand. The beach is contoured by tall coconuts and casuarinas. Pantai Tengah is separated from Cenang by a small cape. Burau Bay, fringed by rocky outcrops, is the favorite place of migratory birds in Langkawi. Pantai Kok is a peaceful beach with the backdrop of limestone hills. Datai Bay has wonderful combination of forests and sea.The milky beach is backed by lush forest.

Sea around Langkawi is perfect to enjoy scuba diving and snorkeling. Marine life in Langkawi waters is prolific, thanks to strict enforcement of environmental laws. Fish like black tip sharks, barracudas and giant groupers are regularly sighted. Coral life is rich, consisting both soft and hard corals. Pulau Payar Marine Park, located near Langkawi, is tailormade for scuba diving and snorkeling. Apart from these two sports; angling, fishing, and swimming can also be enjoyed in Langkawi.

The Langkawi Cable Car takes visitors up to the peak of Gunung Mat Chinchang, where the Langkawi Sky Bridge is located."

Sports Day 2010

I just had Sports day in my school Wesgreen International School of Sharjah and played lots of fun sports. It started with 4 different houses like Falcons, Leopards, Vipers, and Scorpions. Im in Scorpions (which is the BEST TEAM EVER). Firstly, we had a warm-up jog. The we played javelin. Im not really good at it but it was a nice try. After that we played Tug of War. First with our houses and we won all the matches!!!!! Then we played in our classes, im in class 7BW. Of course, we won again!
From there we played the High-jump. It was a very fun experience and i did pretty good except that MY HAND knocked the pole down. Next we played the Long-jump. My jump was a decent distance higher then the average kids. Shot-put was the next activity. I shot it 6 blocks away! After shot put it was lunch. After that we did the 100 meter race, which had tryouts. Only a few people got to go in like me !:D I made it in 3rd place so im gonna get the medal for that. Finishing up it was the relay. We kind of screwed up on it. But overall Scorpions got 1st place!
