Where is lang tengah

We visited Lang Tengah for the first time three years ago and since then all its beauty remains untouched. Every time we come back, we fall in love again. Tengah island has only three resorts all clean and good overall, but none of them five stars.

The rooms are clean, but in need of renovation. The family rooms by the pool and at the beach front are the best. The rooms with two king size beds fit comfortably a family of four or even five if the kids are younger. The restaurant offers breakfast and dinner buffet, but you can also order some snacks from the beach bar during the day.

At the time of our visit, the buffet was average: the choice for both for breakfast and dinner was limited, but the food was good. The rooms are well maintained, but the family rooms are smaller than at Sari Pacifica. We were told that breakfast now offers a wider selection of buns and pastries on top of their regular buffet spread. We have never stayed there, but as far as we could see some rooms are quite spacious and they have a few family rooms available.

All the resorts have a dive center offering daily snorkeling and diving trips, as well as kayak and canoe rentals. The downside compared to the neighbouring islands Redang and Perhentian , is that the only meal options are at the resorts. There are no other restaurants at the island, besides a small local kiosk on the way to the turtle bay selling fresh coconut and a few seafood dishes.

On the other hand, Lang Tengah has fewer tourists, which guarantees a peaceful and quiet holiday. The best time to visit the island is between March and October, as by the end of October all the resorts close for the monsoon season.

It takes about 45 minutes to reach the island with a speed boat from Merang Jetty, Terengganu. We chose to travel by car from Kuala Lumpur, but you can also take a domestic flight to Kuala Terengganu. The resorts usually provide a land transport pick-up service from the airport to Merang Jetty for those not driving. The drive from KL to Merang Jetty takes about four and a half hours, and the roads are good with several places to stop on the way.

Once we reached Merang Jetty we left the car in a covered parking area for a fee of RM10 per night. Sign up for our newsletter. Receive an email newsletter every two weeks or so to get the best tips on what to do with kids in KL, best travel stories and much more!

September and October are the low season. Tourists from foreign countries especially European country will normally just buy the accommodation and spend weeks of their holiday on this island, holding a book in hand, sun bathing on the beach, swimming in the sea, diving to look for different surprises, or even taking a diving course here… However, with the launching of subsequent resorts and greater effort from both the state government and private agencies in developing new destinations and products for the industry, today you can see more Malaysian faces on the island.
