Redang Lagoon, Redang Island. Worth the money..
>> 6.21.2010
For our honeymoon, we decided to spend it on Redang Island for 3days and 2 nights. We've already booked Redang Lagoon Resort through an agent, (which I wouldn't recommend to any of you. Just book by yourselves), simpler and save some more money.
Departed from Syahbandar Jeti, near the famous Pasar Payang and reached there after an hour plus of journey. Exchanged to a smaller boat towards the resort.
Redang Lagoon seems to be the only one owned by Malay. Not being a racist here, but it's covenient in term of no-late-karaoke, no alcoholic drinks served and the kiblat direction is already sticked on each of the chalet's ceiling. No need to ask the receptionist that has a I-dont-really-know-maybe look when they told us the direction.
Blue sky welcomed us. We took pictures during the first day. Visiting all of the resorts nearby and taking pictures of the surrounding. A bluish ocean and so clearrr~~~ you can even found your coins if you dropped them. Err..Ok, overexaggerated.
Tried my new 7D low light and high ISO capability by taking some night pictures of the place. I was so satisfied with the pictures I took with it. So nice and how it look during the night there is well captured as an image. Those were how they looked like when we were there. Exactly like that.
The boat provided by the resort. The snorkeling trip is handled by each resorts itselves.
For short-sighted person, they provided the special snorkeling mask for you. But they have a limitied quantity of it. Better rent it the first thing you reached there.
That's me posing like The Batman
Snorkeling session is every 9.30A.M and 2.30 P.M. Every session, they bring you to one snorkeling session. As I came with an agent, we just went for a single session but snorkeled at 3 different places. It's such a wonderful moment floating and seeing how different the world is under there. I felt like I was in the jurassic park time..seriously. It's such a magnificent experience and I really think everyone to have the same experience as mine.
The last night was spent covering the other half of the place. Looking for some souvenirs (which some pictures are not uploaded yet. Limited internet access for the past 1 week.).
A beautiful place. I heard they gonna reduce the quota of the visitors per year in this near time. Better go. They also rumors saying that it would be transformed to a luxurious holiday escape where of course everything would be more expensive.
For now, Redang Lagoon offers RM285 per person for 3days 2nights inclusive the ferry ride coming and leaving the Island. Rm5 to visit the marine park, but I didn't pay for that because I went with the agent's speedboat. Snorkeling rental for RM20 throughout the days you spent there.
During peak time, the rate is RM345 per person. So, why wait??? GOooooo!!!~~~
