Pulau Hantu (Ghost Island)

Pulau Hantu, a pair of tiny islets located southwest of Sentosa in Singapore, derives its name from a local legend. According to the tale, two mythical warriors perished while locked in combat, with one becoming Big Ghost Island (Pulau Hantu Besar) and the other Little Ghost Island (Pulau Hantu Kecil). Today, visitors are drawn to these islets for their clear waters, which offer excellent opportunities for snorkeling, scuba diving, and fishing. The islands’ serene and unspoiled environment provides a tranquil escape, making it a favored spot for water enthusiasts and those seeking a peaceful retreat.
