I don't think you should go cos the monsoon is going to be starting soon & the sea may get very rough. And they will cancel dives. It was already raining at the coastal area when I just got back from Redang (8-11 Aug02). While i was there on the last day, it was raining till abt 9am. then the wind began to pick-up & i could see the sea was very rough. I cant even go for canoeing.

Check the weather forecast 1st. The workers there told me monsoon is abt OCT - FEB. Of course the resort will tell you it is ok becos they want to earn yr $$$. The water will not be clear at least 1-2 week b4 or after the monsoon period. So don't get disappointed. Best time is Mid May- Mid Aug.

If you are

If you are learning, try RedangKalong package for 5D/4N at RM$1400. 3D/2N are too short even for snorkelling.
