Redang - Laguna Beach

Posted on July 9, 2008 - Filed Under holiday

Yes it’s Redang themed entry yet again …. and this time around, some of us journeyed to the otherside of the island to get to Laguna Beach. Since i was zombie-fied when i was there during the first night, this time around i made sure i was all charged up to see what Laguna Beach was all about.

Only four of us went over as the rest were pre-occupied with shark-sighting and canoe-ing. So Dolphin, LeeMay, WIlliam and I left right after returning from snorkeling.

Midway through, we came across this rocky-pebbley area which is usually covered with water during the night. We walked over it and it wasn’t easy balancing around. The rocks reminded me of Nipple Island. The only difference was this time i had my slippers on :D

Lee May posing for William and Dolphin. I just stood from afar and snapped candidly :) This place is really ideal for any photoshooting but then again having the right coloured clothes would be an additional bonus :D So after burning ourselves under the scotching sun for a good fifteen minutes, we carried on walking thru the jungle towards Laguna Beach.

The first thing you would notice about Laguna Beach is ….

tonnes of girls in bikinis the soft soft sand.

It’s so soft that it feels like the sand was ice blended before being layed all over the beach. Comparing to the sand over at our resort, Kalong Beach has very rough sand. I immediately walked around barefooted and it felt so good, especially after a hellish hike at Nipple Island.

Dolphin and Lee May helped themselves with all the fixed props in front of the famous More More Tea Inn which was made famous by Ritchie Ren and Sammy Cheng in Summer Holidays. It’s like a must photographed area of the the Laguna beach. People have to line up at times just to snap with the heart shaped thingy on the building which unfortunately isn’t in any of the pictures here.

To take good pictures here on Laguna Beach, i have prepared a few pointers for those who are gonna go there in the near future.

A tripod would be a plus point to get good shots especially for landscape

But not everyone owns a tripod and that’s where this pose comes in. Engineered by the almighty dolphin, standing as such gives you maximum stability, LOL.

We tried to find a place to sit down and put all our bags in one place before William and i walk around to ‘wash eyes’ and Dolphin returns to the sea with Lee May. While doing so, i was randomly snapping around and came across this …

William in action … huhu

ROLF, spotted ! William realized that he was being photographed

Aiseh, change location already. LOL

We then walked towards the other end of Laguna Beach since there were too many people at the beginning of the beach and leaving our bags unintended doesn’t sound safe at all.

Dolphin and her trademark pose. She was familarizing with Daniel’s Nikon for a ‘certain reason’ lol. Ahem the S200 pass to me ya Dolphin.

We finally left our things on this huge boulder at the end of Laguna Beach. Dolphin and Lee May changed in a flash and they were off to the beach.

William then went towards the beach to snap Dolphin and Lee May in the water when i was back at the boulders guarding the bags -_-” At least my lens was able to zoom to a considerably good distance for sniping. So much so that i even caught Dolphin and Lee May giving me the tongue -_-”

After a good one and half hours, we decided to call it a day and head back. We waited for the other two to return from the sea. In the mean time we played around with a few sillihoute shots and one of it appeared to be nice and you can check it out on William’s blog.

While changing, Dolphin got excited finding out that the sky was actually blue in colour. Lee May just didn’t know what to say, hahahaa.

We reached back in time for dinner and before retiring for the day, we played a few games and the whole cycle restarts again the next day.
