Changi Beach

Changi Beach is part of Changi Beach Park, a 3.3-kilometer-long park known for its expanses of golden sand. Changi Beach lacks the hip, modern vibe of Sentosa Island's beaches, which is part of what makes it so special. The region has the atmosphere of a kampong, a typical floating village found throughout Asia. The Changi Ferry Terminal, which is directly near to the shore, is the best way to come to Changi. Despite the fact that crocodile sightings are common, this is nevertheless a favorite swimming spot.

If you want to stay on land, there are plenty of BBQ pits, kayak and canoe rental shops, and several restaurants that serve outdoor meals. Changi Beach is ideal for a relaxing day at the beach; visitors come to view the sunset or low-flying planes headed to the local airport.

There are plenty of locations to camp along the beach, or you can go to Changi's northern tip to find the greatest resorts in the area. Kayaking courses are available at the Sea Sports Club, and there is a path that leads all the way back to the shore.
