Discover the three beautiful Southern Islands of Singapore each with its own unique experiences and leave with warm memories of delectable Four Seasons chef-crafted food and sunsets along the island horizon:

Kusu Island
Born from the legend of a giant tortoise that turned itself into an island to save two shipwrecked sailors, Kusu (tortoise in Malay) Island is a sacred place of worship to 90,000 devotees who visit the island during the eleventh month of the lunar calendar.
In other months of the year, the island boasts gorgeous lagoons, pristine beaches for afternoon picnics, and three Malay shrines (keramats) and a Chinese temple for spiritual solace. Unique to the island - and an experience in itself - is the Tortoise Sanctuary that houses hundreds of tortoises.

St. John Island
With its history as a medical centre housing cholera and beri-beri patients, St. John Island now provides a different form of healing with its tranquil getaways of fishing spots, trekking routes, soccer fields and picnic grounds.
A popular location for fishing enthusiasts, settle comfortably along sandy beaches with tackle and bait, while trekking enthusiasts can take the scenic walking path to Lazarus Island with a spot of luck, guests could glimpse dolphins along the way.

Sisters Islands
Different legends abound on the story of two sisters, one of whom was forced to marry a pirate king. Caught in a huge storm as the young captive bride was shipped away by the pirates, the elder sister leapt into the sea to save her sister, but both vanished. They were transformed into two little islands, as their sisterly devotion had touched the gods.

The beauty of their love is seen in the gorgeous reefs in the waters around the island, a pleasure for many snorkelers and swimmers. Home to some of Singapores richest reefs, many varieties of corals and rich marine life abound, including the long-tailed macaque, octopus and seahorse. A narrow channel separates both islands, and is a popular spot for picnics under the swaying palm trees.

Attentively served with Four Seasons renowned world-class service, the Castaway Picnic package is an unforgettable addition to the Singapore experience. Four Seasons Hotel Singapore picnic menus are available from SGD 40.00. Island Getaway kits will also be provided as part of the Singapore Island Cruise packages (prices according to Island selections), including towels, sunblock, mosquito repellent. Additional fee for ground transport as requested.
