Day trip to St John's Island and Kusu Island

Bryan and I and two friends decided to head to Singapore's Southern islands today. We boarded the 9am ferry at Marina South Pier that would first take us to St John's island, then off to Kusu island and back to Singapore again. Pricing with Singapore Island Cruise is $15 for adults and $12 for children under 12. Kusu Island

Beach at St John's island. The water here really is beautiful! Blue-ish green and clear! It just makes you want to take your clothes off and jump right in!
Me at St John's island..there's really nothing here. Not even a cafe or a drink machine. The island seems to be quite isolated with the old drug addict prison being turned to a 'holiday camp' but still has scary barb wires everywhere. The island is, however, remarkably clean.

Beautiful waters at St John's island. Seems to be a popular spot for fishing!
