Pasir Tengkorak Beach is an isolated beach set along Langkawi’s northwestern coastline, featuring a forested area, soft white sands, and pristine waters that are perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring Langkawi Island. Often overlooked by tourists due to its rather hidden gem, this beach is just 4 km east of Datai Bay and 2 km away from Temurun Waterfall
