Deep Water Soloing Climbing (DWS)

Try your hand at free soloing over Jong Island and the archipelago emerald waters in this unique discipline of rock climbing! Enjoy a short cruise into the bay’s island labyrinth, where a small boat will transfer you to our DWS crags. Then, chalk up and get personal with the limestone. Your guide will show you developed routes and safely spot you. Climb from the boat onto the rock face, grab hold of big pockets, work up tufa systems and traverse finely featured limestone. Push your limits to climb higher before jumping from the cliff into the water. It’s a thrilling, adrenaline-pumping experience! 

Refuel with a snack and drinks bring by our crew on our speed boat. Relax at while we cruise to a new location for the next climbing spot, then hit the crags again for some harder climbing before heading home. 

Typical route grades range from F5b to 7c/ YDS 5.8 to 5.12c. Since our DWS crags are undercut by natural erosion, route difficulty depends partially on tides. A boulder start is required to begin climbing during low tides.

*All deep water solo routes have been developed by experienced rock climbers in areas safe for climbing. 69degreenorth is the only tour operator in Langkawi Island licensed to deep water solo.

Cross Country Cycling Tour

This cycling  tour is for the adventure-seekers, because there won’t be a dull moment while you are exploring and experiencing the best that Langkawi Island offers. From the urban escapades of Chenang Beach , the scenic paddy field in Ulu Melaka, to the beautiful and popular Panorama Route, these 2 hours cycling won’t disappoint. This adventure will certainly contain a lifetime of memories.

Educational Island Tour

Educational Island tour is probably the most popular boat tour in Langkawi and also one of the best ones. This is a standard tour that usually starts at 9.00 in the morning and lasts for 3.5 to 4 hours including pick up and transfers.
Because of its popularity, this tour is offered by virtually all tour operators, travel stalls and hotels in the island. It covers five spots that includes wonderful scenic islands to the south of the main island of Langkawi , private beach, mangrove , and eagle feeding where you can watch the marvelous spectacle of many eagles swooping down from the sky to catch their prey on the water. 
The whole area is administered and protected by the Peninsular Malaysia Forestry Department. It is part of the larger Langkawi Geopark and one of the biggest hot spots of Eco tourism in the entire region.
The approach to the Dayang Bunting Marble Geopark is through the Archipelago of Dayang Bunting. You will need to take a tour on a motor boat that starts from the Awana Jetty or the Telok Baru bay area both located at the south eastern end of Langkawi. A guided boat tour would be ideal to appreciate all the attractions in Dayang Bunting marble geopark . The Dayang Bunting Marble Geopark area comprises of the river basins of Sedang Raya river, and Tuba Island along with several islands including Pulau Lima  and pulau Dua .
So what do you get to experience? The boat ride will initially take you along the Archipelago with dense green mangroves (also known as wetland mangroves) on one side and gigantic limestone rocks on the other rising from the river bed. Some of these limestone rocks that look like mountains, have been formed some 500 million years back. The mangroves serve to protect the shoreline from the sea and prevent soil erosion by forming a barricade. 

CANYONING IN DURIAN PERANGIN WATERFALL

DURIAN PERANGIN WATERFALL is well-known as a premiere destination for canyoning (or canyoneering).  Canyoning is a new adventure sport which involves scrambling through natural obstacles in a canyon and rappelling down waterfalls.  This truly is an amazing experience in the rain-forest and one you will never forget!
