Ulu Melaka Market

The Ulu Melaka market is one of the most prominent night markets in Langkawi that offers a variety of amenities at one place. 

The market, despite being vibrant and luminescent, lacks in variety: most of the stalls are fruit, food or apparel (which is definitely not to say it has a dearth of entertainment).

The market is a bit out of town, so reaching there should require you to drive over to the place, which should not be a problem given you have rented a car; moreover, hailing a private or public transport vehicle is always an option.

Timing: 5 pm - 9 pm

Location: The market is located at 2, Taman Wawasan Indah, Kampung Padang Gaong, 07000 Langkawi, Kedah

Operates on: Monday

Kedawang Market

The Kedawang market is a superb inclusion in the list of night markets in Langkawi, enjoying considerable attention from locals and tourists alike.

This too, is a night market that you would need to drive to. However, what makes it more convenient is the adjacence of a field, which serves as a spacious parking spot for vehicles of all kinds.

Like most night markets in Langkawi, the Kedawang Market mainly sells apparels and shoes, and food is always an absolute treat here, with delectable dishes for a variety of palettes.

Timing: 5 pm - 10 pm

Ayer Hangat Night Market

The Ayer Hangat Night Market is a night market that is often overlooked when it comes to Langkawi night markets, and it probably has to do with the market’s relatively compact size.

That said, the market still packs a punch, with food and drinks stalls aplenty that are sure to make you drool. 

In fact, food is one of the market’s core strengths, given the wide range it offers in seafood delicacy.

Parking can be a problem at this market given its spatial brevity, so ensure that you leave early or hail a transport.

  3. What are some tips for visiting night markets in Langkawi?

    The first thing to know when talking about covering night markets in Langkawi is that there is absolutely no dearth of them, so it is pointless to try to visit all of them, given that they run more or less on the same theme.

    Prioritize three night markets at most to visit, depending upon your place of accommodation.

    Purchase local stuff- be it food, apparel, or any other commodity- in order to not only help the local community, but also experience the organic originality of Langkawi.

    Language barrier can be an issue while shopping, so it always helps to buy from places with whose owners you can converse, in order to get the best deals.

    Leave early from home, as reaching at a night market can take a while, and you would not want to compromise on the time you get to spend in the market itself, whose importance cannot be overemphasized.
