As much as we enjoy our time relaxing and snorkeling around Redang island, we also have to play our part in ensuring that the beach is clean and it stays that way for us to continue enjoying in the future. We planned and finally got the chance to organize a beach cleaning activity to play our part to preserve the beautiful nature on the Redang island.
Although the beach looks perfectly beautiful at first glance, when you walk around you will still be able to see some rubbish scattered around. Everyone has to play their part to ensure that the cleanliness is preserved.
We were divided into 3 groups and walked around the beach collecting any rubbish that we could spot! You will be surprised the amount of rubbish you can find when you start focusing hard on the sandy beach to differentiate between beach stuff or rubbish! We managed to fill the 3 bags with rubbish and it was a job well done by the team!
The Redang Beach Resort has prepared a lot of bins around the resort for recycling and rubbish. Let us all work together to make the place a better one; we could if we only take the first step together!
So what do you do when you are on the island? Well besides relaxing by the beach and slurping a cold drink, you snorkel and enjoy the beautiful world under the sea.
All you need is the snorkeling gear which consist of the goggles and mouthpiece. The life jacket is compulsory even for those who know how to swim. Safety comes first and when you are out in the ocean, it is better to be safe than sorry.
Everyone will need to attend the safety briefing to understand how to properly use the goggles, mouthpiece and put on the life jacket properly. One thing for sure is if you do not put on the goggles properly, you will be drinking quite a bit of salt water!
And once you have buckled up, it's time to head to the boat to race out to the deep sea for the snorkeling activity. The boat can fit in around 45 passengers and everyone has to have their life jacket on.
The view under the sea is really a beautiful sight and it is something that you have never experienced before for the first timers. Imagine lying on the surface of the water and then looking at the sea bed where all the corals and fishes swim around.
This is definitely an unforgettable experience to be able to view the beautiful corals and fishes while enjoying a swim around the ocean. You should not apply too much sun block as it is harmful for the fishes and corals. Basically when you go outdoors for a long period of time, you will get a free tan and that's for sure!
