Off The Beaten Track: Exploring The Lesser-Known Sides Of Singapore

Singapore is well-known for its fast-paced and dynamic urban scene. After all, it is one of the most technologically-advanced nations in Southeast Asia. However, the island-country still boasts a slew of less-explored gems and experiences that never fail to amaze locals and foreigners alike. From kayaking in a mangrove forest to sailing at sunset on a cruise, here are some of our top picks:

 

 

Kayaking in Pulau Ubin

Teeming with mangrove trees, Pulau Ubin makes for the perfect destination for mangrove forest kayaking. In fact, this activity is possibly the longest pure mangrove kayaking expedition in all of Singapore, covering a distance of 8.27 kilometers in total!

The entire excursion lasts for up to six hours and the route will lead you to the wetlands of Chek Jawa and into the streams that cut through the island. Keep your eyes peeled throughout your journey, as sightings of animals such as otters and monitor lizards are quite frequent in this area.
