Gone are the days when the island was a humble fishing village, known as Pulau Belakang Mati or 'Island of Death from Behind' in Malay. Because of its strategic location, it even served as a British military fortress up till World War II. Sentosa Island

In the 1970s, it was given a dramatic makeover and a spanking new name, Sentosa, which means 'peace' and 'tranquillity' in Malay. Sentosa Island

A playground for all

Today, Sentosa is home to renowned golf courses, a yachting marina and luxurious residences, and is also a holiday destination for Singaporeans and tourists alike. Nature buffs, history fans, spa-goers, adventure junkies – there’s something for everyone. Sentosa Island
