Of legends, superstition and mystery

The story behind the island (Read it here!) is a little sketchy, but all accounts involve a giant tortoise transforming itself into an island.

Located only 5.6 kilometres off the main island of Singapore, it’s popular with in-the-know day-trippers, even if you don’t believe in its supernatural prowess.

GETTING THERE

Make your way to Marina South Pier (right next to Marina South Pier MRT Station) and buy your ferry tickets from Singapore Island Cruise around the main entrance of the pier.

Book your tickets here.

Do note you are not allowed to camp or stay overnight on the island, so remember to keep track of time to catch the last ferry back to the mainland!

1. VISIT HISTORIC SACRED SITES

The main highlights of the 85,000 square metre island are the three Malay shrines and the Chinese temple.
