Kusu Island

Legend has it that a magical turtle turned itself into an island to save two shipwrecked sailors - one, a Malay and the other, a Chinese. Now a Malay shrine and a Chinese Temple stand as reminders of that day so long ago. 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.
