Why play badminton indoors when you can enjoy it with a scenic view of mountains and crystal clear ocean?
A resort in Redang, Terengganu has just introduced a badminton-on-water experience, said to be the first of its kind in the world.
In collaboration with Malaysia Badminton Experience, 'Shuttle At Sea' is located at The Taaras Beach & Spa Resort.
Smashing shuttles over the net won't be the only challenge in this version.
Be prepared for a whole lot of fun balancing, slipping, and sliding!
In a video shared by Malaysia Badminton Experience, players were seen falling into the ocean during a game.
So it's very likely that you'll get wet.
Don't worry about floating out to sea.
A video shows that the court is secured down with poles and bricks.
And in case you're new at badminton, the website notes that there are coaches to guide you.
If you sign up for their 4D3N October package, you'll even have a chance to play with former badminton players!
