From Kuala Lumpur
Head east towards Kuantan. You will be driving on the Karak Highway (Highway 2) all through to Kuantan, which takes approximately 3 - 3½ hours. Once arriving on the outskirts of Kuantan town, it can get a little tricky. Head towards the Northeast, on highway 3 (the coastal road) or Highway 14 which will lead you to Kuala Terengganu.
From Penang
Head towards Kota Baharu via the East-West Highway (highway 4). Perhaps one of the most scenic routes found in the Peninsular, the East-West Highway is one of the last frontiers to be conquered, so to speak. A stronghold for the communists in the 60's and 70's where terrorist activity was rampant in the area then. This may be the reason why going through this part of Malaysia seems a little alien. There are neither plantations nor housing development lining the highway. Zip back 60years and this would probably have been the landscape for most parts of Malaysia. Little trunk roads splitting dense forests, with no evidence of civilisation far into the horizon.
Look out for the 'Elephant Crossing' Signs. Wild elephants forage at night and may cross the highway to other feeding grounds within their roaming range.
From Kota Baharu, head South for Merang. This is a seaside village just outside of Kuala Terengganu. If you're unfamiliar…Kuala Terengganu is Terengganu's capital city. Merang is really where you should be going to catch a boat to Redang but you may have a bit of problem leaving your car as there are few long-term carparks. Ask your tour agent for further information on safe park.
From Johore or Singapore
travel north on the North-South Highway and exit at Yong Peng. From Yong Peng, take highway 1 to Labis and later onto Segamat. Segamat will lead you to HighwaThe trek into the jungle starts at the end of the beachy 12 and all the way to Kuantan. From Kuantan, head towards the Northeast on highway 3 (the coastal road) or Highway 14 which will take you to Kuala Terengganu.
At Kuala Terengganu
either park your car at a designated safe park (a daily parking rate of RM4 - 7 fee will be levied) and then hitch a ride on the connecting shuttle to Merang village - all hassle free and arranged by your travel agent .OR make your own way to Merang village and park at the seaside restaurant and resort for a fee of RM4 per day. The only problem with this arrangement is that from here to the Merang jetty;is a pretty long way off and lugging all that dive equipment etc will put out even the most enduring, enthusiastic, hungry-for-a-holiday-holidaymaker! Unless a taxi happens to drive by on this quiet stretch of beachfront, you'll have to make it to the jetty on foot.
By Coach
Please refer to Terengganu for coach schedules.
By Boat
Only from Merang Jetty to Pulau Lang Tengah
From Merang Jetty, there many speedboats awaiting guests to Pulau Redang and Lang Tengah. Different speedboats are attached to different resorts on the island. If you have booked with a resort on the island, more than likely the appointed boat will already be there waiting for you. Some boats belong to the resort and is therefore easy to pick out with the resort's name clearly printed. But many are hired boats and belong to private operators so just inform the boatman which resort you are staying at, and he will direct you to the right boat.
Delay is a normal occurrence. There have been occasions when passengers had to wait quite a while for other guests delayed enroute, so be prepared! Pulau Lang Tengah is roughly 24km from the Merang Estuary and the boatride takes approximately 45mins.
BUT A WORD OF ADVICE: please bring your own lifejackets especially for young kids as many boat operators do not carry child-sized jackets. You can get this at Carrefour in Mid-Valley Megamall or at Toys-R-Us outlets
If you have some time to spare at the jetty, take a stroll around - savour fresh coconut juice served straight from the fruit, for only RM2.50 each. Or grab a bite at the roadside stalls nearby where they can whip up a serving of fried rice topped with fried egg for you.
