Another one of Pantai Cenang’s shopping highlight is the Temoyong Pasar Malam which takes place on Thursday nights. This local bazaar is a good place to get cheap and authentic Malay food as well as a wide variety of clothes, fresh produce and electronics from the make-shift stalls.

Location: Kampung Temoyong, Mukim Kedawang, Pantai Cenang 
(located at the estuary of Sungai Temoyong) 


[Zone Shopping Paradise]

hue / saturation = +18 / +40

This shopping centre is located beside Underwater World; but don’t get your hopes up as it resembles a mostly middle-class shopping store with discounted items placed in bins and stacked high to the ceiling. It stocks up on jewellery, souvenirs, watches, cosmetics, leather goods as well as selected designer labels; adjacent to it is a food court with fairly-average fare.

Opening Hours: 10:00 – 21:00
Location: Adjacent to Underwater World Langkawi 


Pantai Tengah Shopping


[Sunday Home Décor]

This place sells, you guessed it, home furniture. Boasting over 3000 exquisitely crafted items, this store is sure to bite you with the home décor bug. Featuring posh, upscale and earth-friendly pieces, Sunday’s collection comes from Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia. Even if you’re not here to shop for merchandise, you’re sure to leave with a handcrafted gift or two.

Opening Hours: 12:00 – 24:00

[Sunflower Handicrafts Shop]

Kuah Shopping


[Langkawi Fair Shopping Mall]

exposure 
exposure = + 0.34
offset = + 0.0017
gamma = 0.81
Home to fast food outlets, a food court, money changers and an information counter for tourists, this outlet has a collection of over 100 shops and an adjoining supermarket. You can get a variety of items here including electronic items; there’s usually cheesy Malay music blaring from the speakers. This mall looks quite run-down and mostly only locals patronise it.

Opening Hours: Daily, 10am to 10pm
Address: Lot FF8, Jalan Persiaran Putra, Langkawi Malaysia 07000

[Saga Shopping Center]

brightness / contrast = 11 / 26
This shopping complex is one of the major duty-free outlets on the island, offering reasonably priced household items, clothing, decorative ceramics and crystal. If truth be told it carries the same type of merchandise as the other major shopping venues in Langkawi; the smaller stores are more likely to peddle one-of-a-kind goods.

                                 Opening Hours: Daily, 10am to 10pm 
Address: Jln Penarak, 07000 Kuah, Kedah 

Padang Matsirat Shopping

[Atma Alam Batik Village]

The centre also sells some of these pieces and inside the centre is a large shop which has an extensive range of batik apparel, original oil paintings, souvenirs and mementos for sale.

[Oriental Village Handicrafts]

Located next to the Segway rental store, this is another shop in Oriental Village that offers an assortment of handicrafts and souvenirs. Its one of the better places to get magnets and key chains at reasonable prices; you’re not going to be able to get better prices than the sticker prices so don’t bother haggling with the shop attendants.

Opening Hours: 09:00 – 19:00
Address: B-07, Oriental Village, Teluk Burau
