Beautiful Beaches in Singapore for Nature Lovers

If you still think of Singapore as a small country with a bustling and hectic lifestyle, you're mistaken! It's no coincidence that Singapore is affectionately called the Lion City. Surrounded by the open sea, this nation is favored by nature for its breathtaking beaches. 

With a warm tropical climate all year round, soft white sands, a combination of enticing man-made beaches, and remote, challenging stretches of land, Singapore becomes an ideal place for your most fantastic ocean explorations. Check out the most visited beaches in Singapore to see what makes them so special!

Nestled behind the international airport of the same name, Changi Beach is a top destination for nature enthusiasts. Despite being in one of the busiest countries, this beach maintains the atmosphere of an old-fashioned village with its expansive golden sands and refreshing blue waters, creating a perfect balance against the vibrant and bustling city outside.

Stretching over 3km along the coastline are lush coconut groves, perfect for laying your beach towel on the soft sand, basking in the sun, or getting lost in the pages of a flying book. The beach is equipped with facilities, including public restrooms and dining options, making it one of Singapore's top destinations.

For a quick and convenient stay near this beach, the Changi Cove Hotel is the most suitable accommodation. With affordable prices and various choices, Changi Cove Hotel is highly praised for its cozy design and amenities.

Located on the beautiful Sentosa Island, Palawan Beach leaves a strong impression on travelers as a small paradise with fine white sand imported from Malaysia and Indonesia, along with crystal-clear water and gentle waves. Though it's an artificial beach, no traveler can resist the beauty of the landscape here. Perfect for family swimming, sunbathing, and sports, Palawan is also convenient for shopping and immersing in various entertainment areas. Don't forget to check in on the suspension bridge leading to the southernmost point of Asia or enjoy yourself on the floating playground! 

To reach Palawan, travelers will need to take a 500m-long Skypass cable car, approximately an 8-minute ride. It's a great opportunity to admire the beautiful scenery from above and capture countless unique Instagram-worthy photos.

If you're seeking a more serene side of Singapore, away from the skyscrapers in the city center, a trip to Pulau Ubin Beach is a must. From Changi Point Ferry Terminal, it takes about 15 minutes by boat to reach this beautiful island with numerous wild creatures. Pulau Ubin is a destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts rather than those looking to sunbathe. 

In history, Pulau Ubin was a granite mining center; however, the quarries have long vanished, turning the area into a diverse biological environment. Whether you choose to stroll around the island, rent a bicycle, or venture into the mangrove forest on a kayak, there are plenty of opportunities to discover resident wildlife, from glimpsing rare dolphins to encountering large monitor lizards crossing the trails.

Located on Sentosa Island, Siloso Beach is another paradise surrounded by palm tree-lined shores, perfect for a small adventure along the dreamy white sandy coast. The crystal-clear waters at Siloso Lagoon are ideal for swimming and kayaking. If you're visiting with a group of friends, don't forget to capture beautiful memories by taking plenty of photos and organizing kayak races!

However, adventurous activities on the beach aren't limited to the water. If you're a thrill-seeker, you'll enjoy the sensation of 'flying' across the lagoon on a zip line or challenging yourself with the bungee jump at Skypark. Conclude your journey with a beautiful sunset dinner at Trapizza, featuring hot pizzas, cocktails, and pasta to make your trip complete.

Pasir Ris Beach stretches over 6km, making it one of Singapore's longest beaches for nature-loving teams. Covered with shady palm rows and dense mangrove forests, it offers various amenities like bars, BBQ areas, or restaurants, making it a top favorite for locals.

While you're here, don't miss the experience of kayaking, exploring the rare wildlife in the mangrove areas, or climbing the observation tower for panoramic views of the beautiful nature from above!

As the largest island in the south of Singapore, it's no surprise that St. John's Island is one of the most famous day-trip destinations from the city. To get here, you'll take a 30-40 minute ferry ride, but this time is priceless as you get to admire the vast sea surrounding. 

In recent years, this beautiful island has served various purposes, but it is currently a focus of scientific research. You'll have the opportunity to learn directly about these essential ecosystems at the Public Exhibition Hall of the Marine Park, showcasing marine life and ocean coral exhibits.

Remember to bring your own outdoor gear and water to enjoy the dining area with shade outside, as there are no stores or restaurants on this relatively pristine island.

Lazarus Island offers another fantastic getaway near Singapore, easily combined with some nearby islands.  A bay of bliss awaits you with smooth white sandy beaches and sparkling clear waters, surrounded by dense vegetation. Immerse yourself in the relaxed atmosphere, kayak in the tranquil lagoon, and bask in the warm sunlight. You'll quickly forget you're just an hour away from one of the world's fastest-paced cities. If not in a hurry, follow the path to Seringat Island to marvel at vibrant squirrels and migratory birds.

With its proximity to the city and a vast sandy beach, it's no surprise that East Coast Beach is one of the best beaches in Singapore to explore without ferrying to another island. The blue sea, golden sand, and nearby amusement park have turned this place into a beloved escape from the city's hustle and bustle. The most exciting activities to experience at East Coast Beach include cable wakeboarding, visiting the water park with new games, and enjoying coffee at the beachside cafes. 

Hidden behind the greenery of Punggol Point Park, this shimmering golden strip is adorned with captivating black rocks, making it one of the most beautiful beaches in Singapore. Besides exploring the beach, you can stroll along the Punggol Promenade to admire the scenery of the surrounding islands, head to the observation tower to gaze at the Johor Strait, acting as the border between Singapore and Malaysia. And, of course, don't forget to admire and capture beautiful photos of the trumpet flowers decorating the park's water surface.

Tanjong Beach is the third stretch of sand on Sentosa Island and remains a beloved spot for Singaporean tourists. While the northern end of the beach has seen development, Tanjong has retained much of its tranquility, making the slightly longer walk (or bus ride) well worth it for a more peaceful beach experience.
