Anywhere is better to swim than Sentosa, doesn't this place have a water quality scale?

I know a number of travel guides advise against swimming there.

Water condition is way better at St. John and Kusu Island. Water is clear compared to the water at Sentosa.

Nice place to go there if you want to spend your time. Due take note:
- Bring plenty of food and water if you wanna go there for a beach picnic.
- In St. John Island, there's no shops there to buy food and water so better bring your own provision.
- In Kusu Island, food and water is expensive so better bring your own.

Again, its a nice place to go there if you want to spend some peace and quiet.

Last (and only) time I went to Kusu, there was nothing open -- AFAIK the stalls only open for the temple festivals.
