Pulau Ubin Day Trip

Pulau Ubin is in essence, the last 'kampung' (village) in Singapore. A stroll through Ubin takes you back to Singapore in the 1960's with the simpler pleasures of life. As you arrive, all cares are left behind.
Ubin is a great day trip spent walking or cycling through rustic roads under swaying coconut palms. You can not only explore shady trails in overgrown rubber plantations and the island Chek Jewa, but also visit shrines and temples. On Ubin, the food tastes better, air is fresher and sights and sounds so soothing to the soul.
