Kusu Island is located around 5.6 kilometres south of the main island of Singapore. In Chinese, Kusu means “Turtle” or “Tortoise”. The island is also known in Malay as Pulau Tembakul, or Peak Island.

Lazarus Island, which is also referred to as Pulau Sekijang Pelepah, is a small part of Singapore’s Southern Islands that is connected to St John’s Island by a causeway. The island is known for its tranquil and beautiful beaches.

Sisters’ Islands are 2 of the Southern Islands of Singapore. The two islands are known as Big Sister’s Island and Little Sister’s Island.
Big Sister’s Island, or referred to as Pulau Subar Laut in Malay, is around 39,000 m2 in size and faces the sea. On the other hand, Little Sister’s Island, or referred to as Pulau Subar Darat, is around 17,000 m2 in size and faces the mainland.
A tiny waterway separates the two islands. Swimmers and divers should avoid this canal since the currents are quite hazardous.
