Even though the beauty of the beaches in Singapore is nowhere close to its neighbors such as Bali, Malaysia or Thailand but it is a great place if you want to experience a tropical paradise in an inexpensive way.
Here are 5 best beaches in Singapore
Palawan Beach
The Palawan Beach is a perfect destination for family vacation. Located in between Sentosa Island and Tanjong Beach, the Palawan Beach is considered as one of the three beaches in the area.
The Palawan Beach is ideal for family vacation as there are lots of children amusements and amenities, including Port of Lost Wonder.
This is the first Kids Club in Singapore which features water plays and theme park for kids ages 3 to 10 years old.
Siloso Beach
Still, in the area of Sentosa Island, the Siloso Beach is also included among the three beaches after Palawan and Tanjong beach. Different from Palawan Beach, the Siloso Beach mostly offers water sports.
This place is perfect for adrenaline and water game seekers. Expect banana ride, beach volley, and beach riding.
You can also find the huge amount of beach snacks and eateries in Siloso Beach.
Lazarus Beach
If you expect to escape from the buzzing beach life, Lazarus Island is the right place to head. The rustic beach becomes the charm of old Singapore.
Besides the calm side of beach life, you can also soft sand and clear water where you can lay down.
As quiet as you expect, there are no shops on the island. So, it is better to prepare your lunch basket and drinking water.
If you want to stay overnight, head to the holiday bungalow at St. John’s Island.
Punggol Beach
Not many people heard of Punggol Beach or Punggol Point Park. However, the place is like a hidden gem of Singapore with actual beach and soft white sand.
The beautiful beach is littered by large rocks, so, you should not take off your slippers when walking around the beach.
Even though not many people know this beach, their facilities here are quite complete as you can find cycling trails, walking pathway, a pond and even children playground.
Pulau Ubin
Pulau Ubin is one of the hidden paradises of Singapore. The island presents a simple village life where most people usually seek for tranquillity.
You can find secluded beaches, island’s architecture, bushes plantation, and more.
To get to the island, you need to take a boat from Changi village terminal. No reservation to make because the boat will automatically take off if there are 12 passengers on board.
If you want to experience the real Kampong village, consider rental bike and get around the island.
