Island

Sister Islands

These tiny southern islands offer a quiet respite from the big city with their laid-back ambience, sandy beaches, and inviting waters. They are perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and scuba diving although the currents are quite strong. Recommended only for experienced divers.

Getting there : Hire a water taxi (S$50 per hour) from Jardine Steps or Clifford Pier. Regular ferry services are not available.

St John's Island

A former penal settlement, this large hilly island has been transformed into a tranquil resort. It has shaded walking paths, swimming lagoons, beaches, picnic grounds, trekking routes, camping sites, holiday bungalows, and soccer fields. A perfect place for weekend getaways.

Getting there : Take a ferry from the World Trade Centre.

Sentosa Island

Sentosa is a wonderful "playground" for people of all ages. It offers nature, history, recreation, and fantasy in an entertaining yet educational way. It was the winner of the 9th Tourism Award 1994 - Leisure Attraction of the Year. There are many different activities available for anyone.

For sun and sea lovers :

  • Sentosa's Siloso Beach, Central Beach, and Tanjong Beach offer sun-worshippers a variety of water sports such as pedal carting, canoeing, and surf boarding among others.
  • Catch the resident pig-tailed macaques harvesting ripe coconuts from the trees along the beach.
  • Hop onto beach trains that run along the beaches.
  • Camp sites and youth hostels are available for those who wish to stay on Sentosa Island.
  • Try out the wild water rides at Fantasy Island, a water adventure with white water river rapids. A tropical paradise for all.
