Travel help for KL to KT and beyond .... please

So I%26#39;m flying into KL and then after a few days there I think I am heading off to Redang and the Perhentians for a few weeks.

As far as I can see it would be best to get a plane ticket on Air Asia from KL to KT and then get a boat from there to Redang. Does this sound right? It looks cheaper to do it that way than have the resort on Redang buy our ticket for us. Although I don%26#39;t know how much the boat will cost, any ideas?

From there I was planning on just jumping on a boat to the Perhentians, is that possible?

Does anyone have any tips in places to stay on the Perhentians, mid range price would be great.

Thanks in advance

David

Hi David,

it may look cheaper to DIY in relation to land transfer from Kuala Terengganu airport to Merang jetty (jump off point for Redang island), however, the logistics involved and where time over here, do take a lacklustre medium, it is best to arrange with the hotel in Redang or through this reputable travel agent- pinganchorage, so that you do not spend your useful vacation time over here, waiting for boats.

Undoubtedly, AirAsia, depending on your time of booking, may offer a very competitive air fare, nevertheless, check the website of Berjaya Air, which flies directly from Subang airport to Redang island.

Regretfully, I do not know if it is possible to get a boat from Redang, straight to Perhentian island.

You may be aware that there is two islands on Perhentian, viz. Perhentian Besar and Perhentian Kecil.

Personally, if I wish to do much diving, and having less crowds, I head to D%26#39;Lagoon Resort. A lone resort by itself, on Perhentian Kecil. Within easy walking distance to Adam and Eve beach and Turtle Beach.

The dive centre over here is operated by an Australian, name Andrew, but locals, which have problems calling Andrew, address him as Drew.

Ever friendly with his sense of humour, but very serious when it comes to diving safety, especially during briefing for diving in sunken wrecked ship.

It is a very communal spirit of living over here, which even as a local, I enjoyed it thoroughly, making new friends, with visitors whom have come across the ocean, and for me, sharing with each other our diving experiences in different places.

Thanks so much for you information, that%26#39;s exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks again.
