Singapore Botanic Gardens

This national park is open daily and features beautiful lakes, animals, flowers and plants, including one of the region's first rubber tree orchards.

Wow! …this place is just beautiful. The word ‘gardens’ rather understates what this place is – there are so many different areas illustrating different plant life – evolution garden, rain forest, palms, healing garden, sun garden, fragrant garden, bonsai garden etc ...and there are also beautiful lakes and open spaces. It occupies a vast area and there is so much to see so we advise arriving early to give you enough time to enjoy and fully explore this attraction. Time constraints meant that we didn’t visit here when we were in Singapore last year and so it was on the top of our ‘must do’ list on this visit. It is so beautiful – well laid out and beautifully maintained and cared for. The National Orchid Garden is located in the Botanic Gardens and is a mass of so many different shapes and colours of orchids – you don’t know what to look at first! There are several cafes and restaurants dotted around the site (we had mid-morning tea/coffee and also a delicious salad for a late lunch at Bee’s Knees). A really enjoyable experience.

Gardens by the Bay

An integral part of Singapore's "City in a Garden" vision, Gardens by the Bay spans a total of 101 hectares of prime land at the heart of Singapore's new downtown - Marina Bay. Comprising three waterfront gardens - Bay South, Bay East and Bay Central - Gardens by the Bay will be a showcase of horticulture and garden artistry that will bring the world of plants to Singapore and present Singapore to the World.

Reviewed By tregsact - Mollymook, Australia

We spent a fantastic day at the Gardens by the Bay. The gardens are amazing and offer so much variety. The highlights were definitely the Flower Dome and the Cloud Forest Dome and they are definitely worth the entrance fees to see amazing diversity of plants, beautiful garden designs and creative sculptures and structures - especially the carved wood models of dragons, eagles, horses etc. The only slight disappointment for us was the additional charged display called Floral Fantasy. This was a timed entry display where you had to book for an hourly slot and was $20 per person. It literally took us less than 10 minutes to walk around the display - so it was poor value compared to the combined $28 for the much more impressive Flower Dome and Cloud Forest Domes.

Sentosa Boardwalk

Reviewed By Q2037NXadriant - Singapore, Singapore

Great way to enter Sentosa! This is, to be honest, most eco friendly and sensible way to get to Sentosa, the bridge is connected to Vivocity Shopping mall which is above Harbor Front MRT station thus making it more convenient to get to....Stroll at your convenience, stop along the way for good photo opportunities, there are covered places to get shade from the sun and vending machines along the way.

S.E.A. Aquarium

Enter and explore the marine realm of S.E.A. Aquarium, home to more than 100,000 marine animals of over 1,000 species, across into 50 different habitats, each one as fascinating as the next. It's an experience you won’t forget.

Reviewed By KodoDrummer - Yekaterinburg, Russia

By water volume, S.E.A. Aquarium (South-East Asia Aquarium) is the world’s largest aquarium. It is home to over 800 species of aquatic life, shown in a variety of sea-water glass tanks and real-life looking environments. There are lots of beautiful coral types and colours, kelp and seagrass habitats, a variety of sharks, great shark tank, dolphins, octopi moving through the waters and on the bottom terrain, us, very colourful and glowing jellyfish (sea jellies) moving through the waters, lionfish, starfish, spider crabs, blue crabs, a long glass tunnel-walkway through the sea-waters, lots of information boards, hands-on experiences at specific times, and much, much more. Although it is a great place to learn about and see sea life by people of all ages, I find that it is especially amazing to young children.

Sentosa Merlion

No visit to Sentosa is complete without meeting its most famous, 37-metre tall resident, the Sentosa Merlion. The legendary Merlion is a mythical creature with a lion's head and a fish's body - as a guardian of prosperity which personifies Singapore's history as an important seaport. The lion head depicts the folklore of Prince Sang Nila Utama's discovery of lion (singa) and City (pura) while the fish tail symbolises the fishing village of 'Temasek', also known as 'sea-town' in Javanese. Set foot in the Merlion's mouth to get up close and personal with the legend. But don't stop till you get to the crown! At 60 metres above sea level, you will actually be seeing Singapore through the perspective of the Guardian of Prosperity. Come soak up the 360⁰ commanding view and bask in the aura of this endearing national symbol. You'll see why legends, myths and stories all point to this regal creature for the swift recovery of Singapore's economy from the Asian financial crisis.

My 2nd visit to Adventure Cove and still loving it. Went with my 22y niece n we both moved n enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Top favourite ride Riptide Rocket! Unexpected climbs and sudden falls, at least 3 times over, coming out of rhe tunnel screaming with glee. Awesome ride. Must do it twice at least before the queue starts forming. Tips Go early. Take the popular rides first- Riptide Rocket, Pipeline Plunge or Tidal Twister (same steps up) No need to bring goggles. Wear booties. No need caps, caps are not allowed on rides. Must do Riptide Rocket x2 Pipeline Plunge x3 Rainbow Reef x2 I enjoyed both trips to Adventure Cove Waterpark, scream your hearts out.
