Pulau
Sekudu off Ubin
Pulau
Sekudu or Frog Island lies just off Chek Jawa, Pulau Ubin.
You can see this island just off the Chek Jawa boardwalk.

This fascinating little islet appears tantalizingly close to Ubin's
shore, but can only be reached by boat at low tides. A permit from
NParks is required to land on Pulau Sekudu which is now part of the
Chek Jawa Wetlands, more
details
The
islet's strange name has no doubt its part in the
legend about how Ubin formed. There is also a large boulder on
the islet in the shape of a frog. Someone had added eyes to the boulder
just to help imagination along!
Pulau Sekudu is rich in marine life, see photos on wildsingapore
flickr.
The islet also has fascinating rock formations. more
