Roti canai is still only MR1.25 while with telur is 2.50 in Penang. My daily routine breakfast in Malaysia or even in Koh Lipe.
I did not have fond memory of Ramaden in Langkawi and Tioman regarding on food during day time but will prepare to face it at Banda Aceh and Pulau Weh.
On the other hand I might take your advice and go back to Pulau Weh during the dry season. Mosquito is a very good incentive to stay away. Dengue fever is on the rise everywhere in SE Asia. In HK most cases are imported but Aedes mosquito is present locally so anything is possible.I always pack insect repellent whenever I travel in SE Asia.

Did not see any large grouper but massive moray eels are very common indeed.
 
I might be relocating to Penang at the end of the year so Pulau Weh has been on my radar for a while.

Thanks @Centrals for your trip report and interesting details.

It is just a stone throw from Penang.
Lumbalumba would be a better choice and nitrox is available.

I always wonder if it is possible to travel from Penang to Koh Lipe within the same day either via Langkawi or Hat Yai by public transport?
