Sourced: Naturally Langkawi
Is the second-largest island in Langkawi and is most famous for Pregnant Maiden Lake. From afar, the hills surrounding the stunning lake are said to resemble the silhouette of a reclined pregnant woman lying on her back. Locals also believe that women who are unable to become pregnant will become pregnant after swimming in the lake.
Pregnant Maiden Lake is surrounded by massive hills covered in dense, lush rainforest. To reach the lake, you will need to take a 15-minute walk via a stairway that is built through the rainforest.
Once you reach the freshwater lake, you’ll find a pontoon in which you can go swimming. You also can hire kayaks, paddle boarding, and life jackets at the small shop at the lake.
