One Tree Island is the island on the southernmost part of Singapore's territory. Covering 1.3 hectares, it is also known in Malay as Pulau Satumu. Located on the Singapore Straits, it is to the south of Violin Island. It is off limits to casual visitors.

The only feature on One Tree Island is the Raffles Lighthouse. It was built in 1854 using granite quarried from Pulau Ubin. The lighthouse was named after Stamford Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore.

Visiting Singapore?

Hello and thanks for visiting Singapore Travel Tips! I'm Tim.

I created Singapore Travel Tips to showcase all the sights and attractions that you can find in this tropical island nation. Please like my Facebook Page - just click the thumbnail on the left to visit it, and let me update you every once in a while.


If you're planning a trip to Singapore any time soon, let me help you make your preparations. First of all, here's a list of my most useful pages, to help you plan your trip:
  1. Arriving at Changi Airport
  2. Arriving in Singapore by train
  3. Taking the bus in Singapore
  4. Taking the taxi in Singapore
  5. Singapore Mass Rapid Transit Trains
The next thing is to look for accommodation in Singapore. Compared to other cities in Asia, accommodation in Singapore is not cheap, so it pays to do a bit of homework. For this, I provide you the search engine to compare prices provided by different hotel booking sites such as Agoda, Travelocity, Expedia, etc. This system automatically shows you the lowest price based on your travel date. Just follow the link below:



Next, you might want to prepare money for your trip. The currency used in Singapore is the Singapore dollar. The following are the latest rates in the last 24 hours.



While traveling independently provides freedom, using a tour operator provides convenience and comfort, not to mention the opportunity to experience things that have been pre-arranged for you. A tour provider that I could recommend is Exotissimo Travel. Finally, you might want to view some of travel books to give you more knowledge of Singapore ahead of your visit. Here are some books you can get directly from Amazon.
