| Many Resorts available ... |
Beach Holidays are always wonderful and relaxing. The downside of beach holidays is coming home with skin very tanned from being burnt brown by the sun - and the sensation of floating around for a couple of days ... ahem !

Many of our Malaysian beach and island resorts are great for holidays, but I think Pulau Redang must be the one of the best, surrounded by beautiful coral reefs, colorful friendly tropical fishes and other marine life - turtles, giant clams, sea cucumber, etc.....all very exciting indeed to see in real life ! The waters are crystal clear and it was a joy just to submerge into the seawater to have first hand look at the amazing marine life close up .... ! The fishes were so friendly and curious that they swam close by, being used to strangely garbed humans. The soft sandy white beaches are kept clean and unpolluted despite being such a popular resort island - all part of conservation effort, I suppose.

Aside from the snorkeling activities which comes with the holiday package, it is really relaxing to laze on the beach front, under the shade of the palm trees .... just listening to the joyous sounds of the waves as they slapped gently against the shore, feel the sea breeze brushing lightly against the skin, the romance of the boats as they flirted with the waves, the deep blue seawater stretching endlessly into the horizon, not forgetting the clear blue skies and fluffy clouds above ! All one need to do is just empty the mind and forget everything except the existence of the moment! Somehow the salty air made the eyes droopy and it was hard to keep them open .... it was so easy to doze off there and then under the warm and quiet environment ...... ! At night, lulled by the seductive sounds of waves beating against the sandy beach or rocks, one will have no problems falling into deep sleep, only to wake up refreshed for another wonderful day on the island .... Jogging along the sandy beach, feeling the soft sand against the feet, and breathing in the fresh morning air was a welcome change as well !

I havent been there yet. Hopefully when I get to go there, the beach is still as beautiful.
I think the authorities and locals have done a good job in their conservation efforts. The people are really friendly too...
Ritche Ren's "Summer Holiday 2000" was shot in this island, many taiwanese around !
