I love most of Malaysian islands and beaches..in the East and the West Malaysia.. they are clean, not polluted and not crowded.. literally they're just like private beaches or islands.. simply pure, great skyline and spectacular views..

As a native Terengganu I think your review is rather spot on. If you have the budget and it’s your first time to Redang, Laguna is a good bet for a good experience. Once you get to know the place already then you can try out the cheaper options with less facilities. Some regulars are just happy with cheaper ones because they’re only there for the dives and just needed a place to sleep and eat in between dives.

Glad to hear Fasal! We were hesitant to spend big at Laguna, but this was the only resort that got good reviews and we thought that we might as well ensure a good experience. Thanks for watching!

I have been to Redang Island and stayed at Laguna Resort Hotel as well. I loved this island but neighbouring Perhentian Islands was nice too. I have also been to Tioman Island and Kapas Island (this one as a day trip from Kuala Terengganu). I've always been to these places in the summer months where Langkawi and Penang were better in the winter months

Hi Brother Sman, we never looked into Kapas island, thanks for the suggestion! Yes, we were lucky enough to be on the East coast of Malaysia during the summer months, so that was perfect for Redang island.

I was on a day trip to Redang from Perhentian islands as a solo traveler last year. I fell in love with the beaches in and around that lagoon and all the amazing snorkeling around the dock (so many cute baby sharks) !! I will be back in South East Asia but this time with my mother and her best friend. I think we could split the bill in one of the cheaper resorts if we have a room with three single beds.

For me Pulau Tioman is better when it comes to snorkeling n scuba diving because of it's rich corals n fish, but Pulau Redang is still beautiful. But the boat ride is quite long, when visit Terengganu I prefer Pulau Perhentian or Pulau Kapas because its nearer

sadly the island inhibitants lack the concern to protect their turtles. According to a turtle lab in one of the resorts, the fishermen are willing to kill entangled turtles than to cut their fishing nets. There is also illegal selling of the turtle eggs in the black market. Although some areas are protected under the Malaysian law, vast areas of beaches are still prone to poachers. In addition, the sighting of the last turtle leatherback was seen on 2017. There was no sighting of the leatherback ever since. Some of the rarest species of fish were nowhere to be found ever again.

Which would you recommend Pulau Redang or Pulau Perhentian for Snorkeling and Scuba?
@BucketListTravellers

Oohhh tough question. Both are good. We found Perhentian to have more scuba and snorkelling operators and subsequently cheaper. We also liked that it felt easier to snorkel straight off the beach where we were staying in Perhentian Besar.

I beg to differ your opinion on the Malaysian KFC mashed potato. I live in Sydney and occasionally eats KFC here but I hate the mashed potato here. It is just too rich gravy and not much of mashed potato. Also, the coleslaw in Malaysian KFC taste better than Australian KFC. Sorry Mate, I'm saying this not because I am biased being Malaysian but I have tasted other countries' KFCs as well i.e. India, UAE, Italy but nothing compared with the juiciness of the original KFC chicken, mashed potato and colesalw in KFC Malaysia. 😅
