While Pulau Redang is certainly a beautiful island, there are considerations that you should think about before you pick this as your holiday destination.
If you are just interesting in maximizing you time eiter in, on, near, or under the sea, then by all means this is the place for you.
However, if you are looking for fine dining, vibrant nightline, or a cheap, convenient, easy place to stay, then best to look elsewhere...
The island is fairly conservative, and there is nary cold beer to be found anywhere outside the hotels here. Also, there are very few restaurants, so you can end up eating most every meal at your hotel, which can be somewhat monotonous...
But for me, I was here for the diving, snorkeling, kayaking, swimming, and the like so Redang is an ideal place for this type of trip....
The itinerary for a typical day here went something like this: wake up, breakfast, jump on boat, dive #1, snorkel for an hour, dive #2, lunch, nap, jump on another boat, dive #3, kayak/lounge at pool, dinner, a few (precious) beers under the stars, and bed...
Over and over and over for about a week... (perfect for me, but maybe not the ideal vacation for others...)

The whole island is attractive, but the most scenic , and the best area for diving/snorkeling are the small islands off... more travel advice

There is one small native village in the centre of the island and it is certainly worthwhile to get away from the hotels... more travel advice

Well, the lack of nightlife has its draw backs, but one good point is that it makes it fairly easy to get up and watch... more travel advice

Nice comments on monkey and trigger fish .. it took me half a millisecond since opening the page to burst laughing
nice, pic and tips as well. your underwater caption is amaze me sometimes.
Great tips & underwater pics!
P.Redang is beautiful alright mate, but to balance the influx of tourist dollars against impact on the pristine environment is a sticky little problem....BTW, your resort is Berjaya Beach Resort isn't it?
still not made a trip to Redang-so decided to revisit your pages. :) enjoyed the humour, and wished I had a beer too.
hahaha.. excellent warning tips, ken!! should've used yr photos for my blog instead ;-)
wow thats beautiful fish.. nice picture. I wanna be there someday.. Christine, SG
Just got back from Lang Tengah, somehow, diving there is not too great near the close of the Monsoon! But I saw the bumphead parrotfish alright..
Viewing such beautiful photos on your page brings back wonderful memories of Redang to me. Huge fishes but didn't have an underwater camera with me during my trip.
Beautiful photos! Redang sounds like a fantastic place, hahaha, even if I am not such an underwater person ;-)) A cold beer, your feet up and watching the sunset sounds great to me! :-))
