Tasik Dayang Bunting is Langkawi's largest lake and resembles the shape of a pregnant lady lying on her back. Some people believe the waters of the lake possess mystical powers as a local princess has blessed the waters. Because of the blessings, it is believed that any woman who is unable to conceive may have a child after drinking the water from the lake.

After passing by the first island, you will witness wild eagles at close range. The long boat will drift slowly for you to see these birds of prey soaring overhead. There are a few different types of birds of prey, including the White-bellied Sea Eagle and the Brahminy Kite.

The last stop will be at a white sandy beach for you to relax and soak up the sun or splash around in the turquoise-blue waters off Pulau Beras Basah. This is a perfect location to enjoy a relaxing picnic in the shade of the casuarinas trees lining the beach. After this you will return to the main Island before being taken back to your hotel safely.
