Redang Island

Pulau Redang

Pulau Redang, located 45 km off the coast of Kuala Terengganu, is the largest of a group of islands dotting the South China Sea off the Terengganu coast. The island offers crystal clear waters and numerous dive sites for enthusiasts. Sheltered within the Pulau Redang Marine Park, the waters here are rich in marine life. At mid-day when sunrays penetrate the sea, brilliant hues of coral, anemones and clams can be seen.

The waters around Pulau Redang also contain two historic shipwrecks: The H.M.S Prince of Wales and H.M.S. Repulse, which sank here at the start of World War II, setting the stage for the Japanese occupation of Malaya.


This paradise island is perfect for snorkelling, swimming, scuba diving, jungle trekking, boating and canoeing. No fishing is allowed within a 3.2km radius of the island as Pulau Redang is gazetted as a marine park. The collection of corals and other aquatic life is also strictly prohibited.

The adjacent islands of Pulau Ekor Tebu, Pulau Ling, Pulau Pinang, Pulau Bidong, Pulau Lang Tengah and Pulau Lima are excellent snorkelling spots.



Visitors to Pulau Redang have a choice of accommodation ranging from budget chalets to international standard hotels. Guests staying at Berjaya Group's two hotel properties on the island can also enjoy playing at an 18-hole golf course.
