The Beauty of Sentosa lies at the beach. Stretches of blinding white sand, availablilty of solid wood deckchairs at 20 US a pop, and the almost beautiful horizon broken only by over 500 ships floating less that a kilometre from shore. The Singaporean government decided that with every 10,000 litres of balast exhausted, ships passing through Sentosa should also expell 50 litres of oil. The effect being a dazzling oily shimmer in the evenings once radiance from the silky moon bounces off the rough but seductive surface.
Of course, nobody is allowed to swin within 5 kilometres of its shores.
