Each year during the ninth lunar month (which falls between Sep and Nov according to the Lunar Calendar), thousands of devotees flock to Kusu Island for their annual Kusu Pilgrimage to pay homage for good health, peace, happiness, good luck and prosperity.

To cater for the huge local crowds, additional big ferries are required during this period to ferry them to Kusu Island and back. These ferries can be boarded at the Marina South Ferry Terminal (see my VT transportation tip on this). Be prepared for the crowds when visiting Kusu Island during this period (especially on weekends).

Kusu Island is a small island with well-paved paths, so it is very easy to move around and explore. The only tougher part is climbing up a small hill to visit the three kramats (holy shrines of Malay saints).
