Fun trip to the Southern Islands 3

Soon we were off on the ferry, after about half an hour we arrived at Pulau Subar Laut or Big Sister's Island. Legend has it that once upon a time, two sisters whom were very close, encountered a group of merciless sea gypsies. One of the sister, Lina was dragged away onto a boat and sailed away. Her sister Minah went after the boat but was engulfed by a large wave. Her sister Lina on seeing this jumped into the sea to join her beloved sister. When the weather cleared, two islands stood where the sisters were claimed by the sea. Lush green trees filled this undisturbed part of the island. Away from the mainland, the surrounding water looks clean and green like emeralds. We disembarked for a short walk on the island, took some hurried photos of the trees that seems to grow well here...

  1. Your trip sounds very fun. The last time I went on a southern island tour was in sec 3. We took off from Clifford Pier. I really must go on this tour again!

  2. Oh yes, it was rather fun as it was my first time on a ferry to the Southern Islands :)
    It's very convenient to get to Marina Pier South by MRT too. If you are going, be prepared to bring water bottle and sun hat as it can be quite humid.
