Pedra Branca, Granite island at eastern Singapore Strait
The island extends 137 meters in length and 60 meters in width, featuring a granite outcrop measuring 8,560 square meters at low tide.
The International Court of Justice determined in 2008 that Pedra Branca belongs to Singapore, while granting Middle Rocks to Malaysia.
The name Pedra Branca derives from Portuguese meaning white rock, referring to the white guano deposits covering the granite surface.
The island functions as a critical maritime navigation point where the Singapore Strait connects with the South China Sea.
The Horsburgh Lighthouse construction between 1840 and 1851 marked the beginning of Singapore's administration of the island.
