"For most of history, man has had to fight nature to survive; in this century he is beginning to realise that, in order to survive, he must protect it." Jacques-Yves Cousteau
Lang Tengah—’The Eagle in the Middle’—a small tropical island off the northeast coast of Peninsular Malaysia, nestled between the more well-known islands of the Perhentians and Redang.
Facing a crescent-shaped beach of golden sand, Tanjong Jara Resort, located on the pristine east coast of Peninsular Malaysia, is a sanctuary of traditional luxury and well-being steeped in age-old Malay traditions ... and also home to Terengganu’s green turtles and painted terrapins.
