Ferry Langkawi Kuala Perlis Timetable (Jadual) 2024 / 2025

If you want to catch a boat to the mainland, the shortest distance back is via the ferry from Langkawi to Kuala Perlis.

High-speed boats leave the island from near the main town at Kuah Jetty and are scheduled to take one hour and fifteen minutes to reach the port at Kuala Perlis Jetty.

Kuala Perlis is in the north-west corner of Malaysia, so if you plan to travel up to the border with Thailand and onto Hat Yai, this is the best port to go to, compared to travelling from Langkawi to Kuala Kedah port.

The other option is to catch the less frequent ferry from Kuah to Satun in the very south-west corner of Thailand.
