Lang Tengah Trip Part I : Getting There

Posted by: vkeong In: Entertainment| Lang Tengah Island| Travel ()

I know I said I would be going for a Redang trip, but the trip wasn’t really to Redang lol. My trip was to the island between Redang Island and Pulau Perhentian, Lang Tengah Island. I didn’t know about this until the day before, ouch. Anyway I reached Kuala Terengganu at 5am after a painful 8 hours journey on bus. And 10am only I boarded the boat to Lang Tengah Island.

The boat ride to Lang Tengah was damn challenging. I really salute you if you manage to reach the destination without feeling sea sick at all. Langkawi’s ferry ride is peanuts compared to this.. After all, the South China Sea’s wave is much stronger than Malacca Straits’. A guy even threw up in the boat. Eww.. luckily his ’stuff’ didn’t stain our bags lol.

During my trip, I stayed in the one and only resort in Lang Tengah Island, the Redang Lang Resort.

Crystal clear sea water, scorching sun and white sandy beach.. That’s the three elements that make up Lang Tengah Island.

You sure boh? one and only resort in Lang Tengah? I went like 4 or 5 years ago, and back then, there were already 3 or 4 resorts operating already le…. The one I stayed was called Square Point. Although the beach there are not that desirable compared to redang’s white sands. The beach in front of Square point was littered with dead corals.
There was another resort back then that had white sands.. I think the name was Blue Coral or something along like that. But it was this one new resort there that really interest me.. D’Coconut Lagoon. They have this nice pool which is really almost looks like its beside the sea. You guys could check it out.

Jason - Thanks! The other pics I am uploading later are even nicer :)

Leng - Will do.. busy leh.. somemore cannot update from office, haih.

Jian - Well Fireflyz didn’t start flying to K.Terengganu until last week. But I did took a flight back to Penang via Fireflyz (RM124 leh!) , nice experience. It was my first time on a plane.. lolz :D

Billy - Hmm.. I did a search on google and found that the 2 resorts you mentioned do exist. But I didnt see them at all when we were having the round island trip. There’s another resort but it appeared deserted.. And there’s only 1 beach in Lang Tengah so I am pretty sure it’s all that’s left now.

neway… hope you enjoyed the islands.. as Lang Tengah is special in its own right.. a nice.. not soo overcrowded island. Oh hey, did you swam out and check out the big rock just beside your resort? if im not wrong, the resort youre in should actually be Blue coral. And back then, there was this.. huge rock at the corner of the beach and when you swam out.. you can see that it kinda goes deep down after that rock. We saw turtles on that swim.
