5. WALK AROUND THE PULAU REDANG TO EXPLORE THE VILLAGE
If you are up for challenge, go walk around the village outside the resort to check out the 'kampung' scenery. You will able to see goat, chicken and all kinds of animal wandering freely around you. It is actually great for some street photography too. Just enjoy that place and capture some moments.
6. THE ONLY ATV ADVENTURE IN REDANG TO EXPLORE THE BEAUTIFUL ISLAND
You can explore Pulau Redang surrounding by foot or faster way would be the ATV Adventure. We went for a walk at the kampung area and see animals wandering freely around.

Other than being able to enjoy buffet breakfast and buffet dinner, you can also order À la carte food right from the menu. You may also visit the restaurant The Beach Brasserie for some fine-dining experience. Opening from 6.30pm to 10.30pm.
Below are photos of the food being served so you'll have an idea how they looks like:
8. GYM EXERCISE WITH THE MAGNIFICENT VIEW OF THE TAARAS BEACH
For fitness junkie, this is a place you must visit. It seems like staying at The Taaras will motivate you to visit the gym as well. You will able to enjoy great scenery right from the top as the gym is located at higher altitude near the cliff side. Enjoy cycling and looking at the blue sea wave crashing the shore. Definitely great view experience
9. SAILING AND KAYAKING
Other than snorkeling and diving, of course they have sailing and kayaking available at The Taaras too. Unfortunately I wasn't there long enough to do all the sports but we did some photoshoot with the sailing boats hahaha. So kindly use your imagination that you are currently sailing or kayaing in the middle of the sea
10. THE TAARAS VILLA FOR PRIVATE STAY EXPERIENCE
For those who require a larger residential retreat, there's a private cliff top five bedroom villa overlooks the Island bay and resort below and has sweeping views out to the South China Sea. The villa size is over 1440sqm. Other than having your own breakfast chef, butler and security. You also have the infinity swimming pool looking out over bay & home gym. The Taaras Villa also has a 50 inch LCD flat screen TV in living room and 47 inch LCD flat screen TV in the bedroom.
We had the opportunity to check out this palce and I am going to share with you how does The Taaras Villa looks like. You can definitely have a huge family gathering or friends private party here.
The view at The Taaras Villa is very magnificent. Even the bed rooms are super spacious too. If you have huge family that like to hang out together. Do consider this villa in The Taaras
11. SPA MASSAGE
Since I was busy with diving as much as possible at Pulau Redang, I didn't have chance to explore the Spa Massage yet. However, for relaxation you should try the Taaras Signature Massage where a heated poultice consisting of aromatic herbs and spices are applied on pressure points on your body to soothe sore muscles.
If time permits, indulge in one of their special packages, which can revitalize or detox your body. They have professional therapists that guarantee you leaving the spa feeling like a brand new person.

12. ENJOY CHILLED DRINKS AT BAYU BAR AND THE NIGHT SKY
Bayu Bar is located at the center of The Taaras Beach & Spa Resort. This is the place where you will want to spend other than sunbathing and having a ice-chilled cocktail/mocktail enjoying the sea breeze. Even at night you will able to look at the bright stars in the sky. I wish I can see milkyway during my next visit.
