How I desire to travel to the beach side and have a great sunbathing for my vacation. Spending most of my time in the city and my few recent trip to other countries' city, why not choose a relaxing place - without car, without air pollution, without noise, not crowded but just a peaceful mind while looking up at the beautiful blue sky. Nevertheless, my dream has come true! Thanks to Olympus Malaysia x Summer Bay Resort for giving us the best memories while visiting the little hidden gem Lang Tengah island in the middle of the deep blue sea.
Lang Tengah Island is located at Terengganu, Malaysia. But you need to take a speedboat for about 45mins to travel to the island. Frankly, I really do not know that Lang Tengah island exist until I found out it was actually in between Redang Island and Perhentian Island. (I'm sorry Malaysian) Hahaha!!! My bad... sudden I feel so guilty!
We dropped by at Kuala Terengganu China Town first for breakfast, after that we travel for another hour to Jetty Merang port by bus. **This photo was taken in the early morning around 7am**
Attach is the boat service's price list at Jetty Merang Two way return pass for RM 100/pax (adult & child) to/from Lang Tengah Island
Hang on, let's watch my YouTube video below before continue to read my BEACH's blog, okieee?

Upon arriving at the destination, here are my nicely captured beach scenery using my favourite Olympus OMD EM10 Mark III camera.

Last but not least, a nightscape photography and star trails shooting with Robin Wong. Although that night was unable to see stars in the sky due to cloudy weather, but fortunately we managed to use Live Composite mode by Olympus OMD EM10 Mark III camera to capture all this night scene photography. This photo is not easy as you thought, you must be patience while waiting Live Composite mode set to downtime about 60sec.
