I know a way. By boat. It's the same jetty to get abroad to Langkawi from Penang.

Boats to Medan in Sumatra (Indonesia) leave daily except Sunday at 8:00, 8:30 or 9:00 depending on the Company (return at 10am). The 4.5 hours trip cost R96 one way (incl. R6 port tax) or R166 return (plus Indonesian tax). Most western travelers are allowed a 60 days stay without visa so there is little need to visit the Indonesian Consulate. The boats companies are located near the Tourist Office but all GH can arrange for tickets. Coral Hostel can even get you a discount to Medan...
