The Redang Island archipelago designated as a Marine Park is protected by the Malaysian Government which prohibits fishing and collection of corals as well as aquatic life within 3.2 km radius of the island.
The island’s special treasures are embedded under its crystal clear waters where exotic marine life flourish with diverse species of reef building corals and bivalves as well as water squirting anemones, table corals, rainbow coloured clams, hard and soft corals.
The best spots for snorkeling to visit the colourful underwater world of Redang are found at the nearby islets of Pulau Ekor Tebu, Pulau Pinang and Pulau Lima while Tanjung Lang, Tanjung Tokong, Tanjung Gua Kawah, Pasir Panjang and Batu Mak Cantek make fabulous dive sites.
Apart from marine activities, one can also explore the nature trails at its northern part and visit the rustic fishing villages built on stilts above the water’s edge. Here, enjoying the sunset with its dramatic metamorphosis of warm, rusty hues against the horizon is a breathtaking sight.
The 2 most established resorts on Redang are the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort and Laguna Redang Island Resort. Laguna is located on the busier Long Beach shared with several smaller resorts whereas Berjaya Redang enjoys their own beach surrounded by a bay.
