Redang Island - Malaysia - Part 2

-
Hi Guysss,

So lets get into the fun part of Redang Island which is the various on land and sea activities.To take advantage of low tides and sunny weather you do have to get up early and catch the fantastic sunrise across the horizon.We had a pre planned itenerary as we chose a package which I shall attach below. We decided to go snorkelling and covered 3 spots on Day 1 and 2 spots on Day 2 excluding the beach itself by the resort which is rich in marine life such a Clown Fish (nemo),Eels and several other fishes that get up close and personal with you.

Feeding the fishies p.s they do bite your finger for more :P





The food at the resort was scrumptious the cook was a welcoming and friendly local who served up dishes piping hot and even made us tea each time we requested for it. 




The last day we decided to ditch snorkelling wake up early and take a walk through the forest to reach the other side of the island to an almost untouched beach. I shall allow the pictures to speak for themselves.We travelled towards the end of February hence it was slightly cloudy as the monsoon season was about to end.






Here's our travel itenary although it did change according to weather conditions. 


I hope you enjoyed this blog if you did do comment and feel free to ask any questions in regards to your travel to Redang.
Cheers!

Now there are several activities in Penang ranging from museum visits to beach activities its easy to loose track of time with so much to do. But some activities are an absolute must to capture the essence of Penang and its proud heritage. In 2008 Penang was designated as a UNESCO world heritage centre . The untouched buildings speak volumes of history showcasing local architecture  and design. There's  a mix of old and new unravelling a unique culture pot. Source: All About World Heritage Sites We decided to explore Penang national park. There are several trekking options in this park to explore the entire area and if you rather not walk there's a sea option via boat to get you to different areas of the park. Our itinerary  included monkey beach and turtle sanctuary looked after by a local family. The package cost MYR 200 ($50) which is pretty decent as we were about 7 people. The weather was extremely hot hence keep yourself hydrated and use the loo before goi...

Thailand's capital Bangkok is known as a go to place for quick escapades, its ornate shrines and vibrant streets are nothing less than extraordinary. The city is buzzing and fast paced filled with bustling tourists and localities  selling exquisite Thai cuisine on the streets. If you want to truly experience Thai culture hop on a tuk-tuk and go around the city taking in the allure of Thai  streets and devouring scrumptious  food. In this blog I shall share my experience  on my first day there, the good and the bad with accommodation  and cruise details. The most fun I have had getting around the city.   Checked in at JW Marriot Bangkok My family and I were looking for a more casual/leisure trip this time around thus we decided to splurge and stay at a more high end and excellence guaranteed hotel. True to its standards the hotel services were excellent and each room provided fantastic view of the city scape which is so very important whi...

Floating Market & Wat Trimitir Samphanthawong Temple ~ Bangkok ~ Thailand

When in Bangkok one of the most raved about and culturally unique activity is hands down taking a cruise at the Floating Market.This has been on my bucket list for awhile now and it was thrilling to experience authentic local culture in an epic long tailed boat.The reason we chose Damnoen Saduak floating market was due to convenience despite that the traffic contributes to an almost 2 hour journey (110 km)from the main city of Bangkok to Damnoen Saduak which is located in the Ratchaburi Province. I do not mind a long drive as it allows me to get a glimpse of local culture and practices and what makes the city so unique. To avoid traffic both on land and in the canal I would suggest you leave early in the morning. Now was soon as we stepped off our van we were greeted by a strong smell of incense and jasmine. Immediately various groups providing packages shall pounce on you and you need to be extremely careful whilst dealing with them. As the prices mentioned ...
