Kusu Island

Singapore has been my second home for more than 7years now. I thought I went all places in this country but not this island called Kusu. It is a small island in the southern part of Singapore and can be through ferry from Marina South Pier.

Ferry Price : $18 for adults and $12 for children 1-12 years old
(loop ferry from Marina South Pier to St. John to Kusu Island)

There are timings each day for the ferry. You can visit their website : http://www.islandcruise.com.sg/

It was a rainy day when we scheduled for a visit so we just skipped St. John then stayed in Kusu Island. Kusu means "Tortoise Island" in Chinese. They have a Tortoise sanctuary, temple and a peaceful beach. The place has its own toilet and shower which is great. You need to bring your own food and drinks when you visit as there is not stores but they have smalls cottages with tables and BBQ pit. I saw as well some fishing enthusiast having a good time as well.

It is a weekday when we went here so not that much people in the island. A good place to meditate and just be away from the busy city.
