| About Kusu Island - The Legendary Isle of Turtles |
|
|
Legend has it that a magical turtle turned itself into an island to save 2 shipwrecked sailors - one, a Malay and the other, a Chinese. Now a Malay Shrine and a Chinese Temple stand as reminders of that momentous day.
Each year, in the ninth lunar month, thousands of devotees flock to Kusu Island on their annual pilgrimage. They throw coins in the Wishing Well in the hope that their wishes will come true.
Kusu Island's blue lagoons and pristine white beaches welcome picnickers and sun-seekers, a haven for those who love frolicking in the sun.
It's Tortoise Sanctuary is the home to hundreds of tortoises and the Turtle Lagoon and Pavilion is a favourite with children and adults alike.
So make a trip to Kusu Island (just 5.6 km away from Singapore) for a quiet day by the beach or you may prefer to hop on to the neighbouring St.John's Island, Sisters' Islands and Pulau Hantu. Either ways, you'll find it well worth the cruise. |
