Lang Tengah Island

Lang Tengah is a smaller island situated between Redang and the Perhentian Islands, characterized by wide sandy beaches and dense forest coverage. The island is surrounded by healthy coral reefs and clear shallow waters suitable for swimming and snorkeling.

The island remained largely undeveloped and home to fishing communities until resorts began opening several decades ago. This shift transformed the island from an isolated fishing ground into a destination for leisure travelers.

The island was home to small fishing communities who worked the surrounding waters for generations. Visitors can still observe how daily fishing practices shaped the local rhythm, even as the island's role has evolved.

Visitors reach the island by boat from Merang Jetty with a journey time of around 40 minutes. The best period to visit is during the dry season when regular boat connections operate and weather conditions remain stable.

Green sea turtles use the protected beaches as nesting grounds and make the island an important breeding site. Visitors may encounter signs of this marine activity between April and October depending on conditions.
