What you’ll do:
Take a short vacation away from the mainland and experience the pristine beaches and clear waters of Pulau Tekukor, a lesser-known offshore island south of the mainland. Tread carefully into its intertidal zone and witness the marvels of nature as Richard introduces you to the various species of marine life that inhabit this island!
Introduce yourself
Hi everyone, I am Richard Kuah, a nature enthusiast-turned-licensed tour guide! Even though guiding is my full-time job, I love surveying our islands during my free time to catalogue our rich marine biodiversity and to experience the unique characteristics of each island!
To me, Home is…
Where your heart is. A place where you can seek shelter and find peace and comfort.
Tell us something interesting about this island!
Pulau Tekukor is one of the few Southern Islands where natural rock formations can be seen. The island is really long and narrow – one side of it is a beautiful beach, while the other houses a rocky cliff. Very few Singaporeans would have heard of this island, let alone visit it, so be sure to join us on this rare opportunity!
