Redang Island, located 45 km off the coast of Kuala Terengganu, is
one of the most beautiful and exotic islands in Malaysia.
Redang Island offers crystal clear water, pearly white shores, a colorful array of spectacular marine life, a breathtaking sunset and what could be the world's most mature coral gardens.This paradise-like island is perfect for swimming, snorkelling, scuba diving, jungle trekking, fishing, boating and canoeing. It takes about 30-40 minutes by speed boat from the village of Merang.
However, visitors have to abide by the Fisheries Act 1985 as Redang Island is one of the few marine parks in Malaysia. No fishing is allowed within a 3.2 km radius of the island, and the collection of coral and aquatic life is prohibited.
