Redang Long Beach

Redang Long Beach is a popular beach in the east of Redang island, Malaysia. This is a true tropical paradise with palms, white sand and clear azure water. You can walk along the sandspit to a small uninhabited islet. While there is a good snorkeling in the sea areas with rocky bottom. Unfortunately, the place is totally overdeveloped with hotels. So if compared with a better times, there are just a few palms, but too many tourists. So you should not expect any kind of seclusion. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
