Kilim + sunset yacht
8:00 am
Leave for Kilim Geoforest Park.
8:30 am–12:30 pm
Kilim + Pulau Dangli boat tour: eagle-watching, caves, mangrove forest, fish farm, limestone formations and a booked swimming/snorkelling stop. Confirm that snorkelling equipment is included.
1:00–2:30 pm
Lunch and rest.
3:00 pm
Leave for Royal Langkawi Yacht Club.
3:30 pm
Sunset yacht check-in.
4:00–8:00 pm
Sunset yacht cruise.
8:30 pm onwards
Seafood dinner in Cenang, unless the yacht package already includes a full dinner.
Kilim snorkelling is not automatic. Book a package that explicitly says “Pulau Dangli snorkelling/swimming” and confirm mask, snorkel and fins. For serious coral-reef snorkelling, Pulau Payar is better, but it takes most of a day and would replace Kilim.
Do not add Skytrex or horse riding to this day. Skytrex’s last departure is listed as 3:00 pm, while the yacht requires 3:30 pm check-in.

Expected KL arrival, depending on stops and traffic.
If SkyCab opens late, queues are long or weather causes a delay, leave by 11:30 am regardless. Missing the 4:00 pm Ro-Ro would materially disrupt the trip.
