Car
If you're driving from Kuah Town in Langkawi, head north on Jalan Pantai Cenang. Follow the road signs towards Tanjung Rhu, which is the northern part of Langkawi. Once you reach Tanjung Rhu, you will need to find a parking spot as there are no direct roads to Pulau Dayang. The nearest parking area is at Tanjung Rhu Beach. From the beach, you will need to hire a boat or join a boat tour to Pulau Dayang. The boat ride typically takes about 30-40 minutes and costs around RM 50-100 per person, depending on the service provider.
Public Transportation
Take a local bus or taxi from your accommodation to Kuah Town. From there, head to Tanjung Rhu by taxi, which is more convenient as public buses may not operate directly to this area. Once you arrive at Tanjung Rhu Beach, you can find boat services offering trips to Pulau Dayang. Expect to pay around RM 50-100 for the boat ride, which will take approximately 30-40 minutes. It's advisable to check the boat schedule in advance as services may vary.
