1. Hello to travelers, I know everybody got a lot planned this year but we must be delayed and waiting COVID 19 be ended on new year. So the topic relates to my first trip to the islands of Terengganu. I choose to travel to Redang Island and explore then I will share it. 2. Firstly, Redang Island is located in Kuala Nerus District and you have two options to come here via boat at Merang Jetty (not Marang Jetty) or Kuala Terengganu Jetty. But I suggest foreigners use public transport via Kuala Terengganu Jetty to go to Redang Islands. 3. If you use your own transport you can directly go to Merang Jetty and pay for parking your cars/motorcycles (safety). Next, Redang Island also has a trip day. For example, I recommend your planned stay around Merang Jetty / Sutra Beach Resort and take the day trip with travel agencies (more cheap). 4. Secondly, accommodation at Redang Islands has several choices from low price to luxury hotel depending on your expenses. I always promote apps to search for accommodation from Booking.com, Trivago and Agoda. 5. Thirdly, the activities in Redang Island were dependent on travelers because it is also suitable for family vacations, honeymoon or friends reunion. Usually, I really recommend snorkelling activity and please visit Pasir Bujang (Sand Shelf). 6. Next, food and beverages at Redang Island were a little bit expensive and I highly recommend bringing some food such as bread, mineral water, candy or noodles (Magi). But you can enjoy BBQ tonight because it is so fresh and cheap. 7. Besides that, the weather at the island is so hot and drying then please wear a sunblock either physical/ chemical but make sure no harm to our marine life. Drink more water before and after activity. 8. Lastly, we must be good travelers to protect our environment. For example, don't litter anywhere and throw it into the sea (If I do that with you, I throw you into the sea). Also, we did snorkelling and saw the rubbish/plastic please collect that for marine life. Thank you, if you have any questions, please message and comment below.

Firstly, bring enough cash with you as there are no ATMs on the island. The majority of tourists ( mainly Malaysians) stay at resorts lining the full length of Long beach so expect it to be crowded. There is only one main road which runs between Kampung jetty at Redang Island Resort and Teluk Dalam beach. Visitors to Long beach arrive at different point along the beach. Teluk Dalam (public) beach is a nice beach with no resorts, only beach vendors selling food & drinks. Safe beach for swimming. Long beach is wall to wall resorts. The beach is actually two beaches connected by sand. Nice clean beach and family friendly with many restaurants to choose from. Many places to hire snorkel gear, fins and vests. Shared snorkel trips are reasonably priced. Be warned though that the taxi boats are very very expensive eg a 15 minute ride from Long beach back to Redang Island Resort cost me MYR100. They must be the wealthiest boat owners in Malaysia. For souvenirs visit More More Tin Inn at Long beach.

The beach is amazing, white sand and amazing colour of the water. You can snorkel and see a lot of fish and corrals. If you have luck you can see turtles and baby sharks. I strongly recommend to visit the island.
