By Car
-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. You know you're on the right track when passing Templer's Park on the right-handside and a little way down the highway, the turning off to Genting Highlands after the tunnel. 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 or arrange with Jmtours 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 Highway 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.

From town, either take a bus, or a ferry across to Pulau Duyung
By Bus
From the local bus station at K.Terengganu, there are buses going that way. Ask for one going to Pulau Duyung and the buses heading in that direction will drop you off just below the bridge (RM0.80). You will have to walk about 10mins before turning into the road on the right and then another right onto a small paved road.
by Ferry
From the jetty by the Seri Malaysia Hotel for RM0.60 will take you across the estuary to P.Duyung. From there, just ask for directions. Last ferry is about 5.30pm but again, be warned that they may just leave whenever. The ferry service can also be infrequent on Fridays.
