Remember to take lots of photos of the afternoon tea set with the stunning views of Singapore’s coastline as your backdrop before digging in!

And for more photo opportunities, head out to the open deck fitted with faux grass and enjoy the panoramic views along with the calming sea breeze.

The ferry will make a stopover at Kusu Island, and you will be given some time to explore the island and learn more about its rich history. Legend has it that the place derived its name from a giant tortoise that turned itself into an island; a heroic gesture to save a crew from being shipwrecked.As such, when you explore the island, you’ll notice it’s filled with shrines dedicated to the animal.

Royal Tea

If you feel that the standard Kueh & Kusu afternoon tea set is not to your liking, you can also upgrade it to the Royal Tea Premium Afternoon Tea set menu.
