Visit Kusu Island on weekdays to avoid large crowds

Kusu Island is home to the popular Da Bo Gong Temple, a Chinese temple, as well as a keramat built to commemorate the 19th century pious man Syed Abdul Rahman, his mother Nenek Ghalib, and sister Puteri Fatimah.

Sets of stairs which lead up to and down from the keramat will be open for use during the pilgrimage season to facilitate access to the keramat.

Siong Leng Musical Association, a traditional arts organisation that promotes Nanyin, or southern Chinese music, will also be holding its annual heritage performance on Nov 7, from 5pm to 10pm at the Chinese temple.

Visitors in the pilgrimage season can purchase a ferry ticket only from Singapore Island Cruise and Ferry Services, the appointed ferry operator. The ferry service departs from Marina South Pier.

Other harbour craft and visitors should not use the Kusu Island bumboat jetty, which has been temporarily closed since April 2025.
