Bass Harbour
The harbour has two main areas to anchor:
just west of the Royal Langkawi Yacht Club (RLYC)
or in front of the Bella Vista Hotel. Both
offer good holding in mud. Marine growth on
boat bottom, anchor chain and dinghy is a
problem, but the main disadvantages of both
is difficult dinghy landing — at high tide
when the beach disappears and worse at low
tide when the obstacle is mud.
The anchorage west of RLYC is popular as it
is near to the yacht club, clearance
facilities at the ferry terminal and easy
access to the Billion Supermarket at
Langkawi Fair Shopping Complex. The
anchorage used to suffers from rolling
caused by ferry traffic, but this has been
remedied.
(IMPORTANT REMINDER:
NOTE: All boats arriving in Langkawi from
Thailand - or from countries that already
have confirmed cases of H1N1 by WHO - must
be quarantined upon arrival.
