    Take a bumboat ($3 per trip) from Changi Point jetty to this nice chill place. Rent a bicycle ($8-12) so you can easily explore the Ketam trails, quarries & Chek Jawa. Rmb to bring own drinking water!

    Make sure you come here around dawn, get a bike, and cycle all around to take in the natural scenery. Don't forgot to stop at the eastern end for a stroll through the mangrove. Delightful escape.

    Once you arrive at this boomerang-shaped island, a 10-minute boat ride from Changi Point Ferry Terminal, rent a bike to see wild mangroves, traditional wooden houses, and the occasional wild boar.

    I don't understand why people would hate this place. It's beautiful! Spectacular sceneries.. Cute wild boars eating durian.. Spotted a few good dating spots too!

    Bring your own or rent a bicycle to explore the island. If taking a taxi to the ferry terminal, make sure to tell the driver it's to go to Pulau Ubin or you might end up at the wrong Changi terminal! Read more

    If you love biking and nature site seeing altogether, then this is the perfect place for you. I highly recommend the Coastal Boardwalk. Watching the open sea is priceless.

    Bumboats to Pulau Ubin leave from Changi Point Ferry Terminal when 12 passengers are ready to board, cost 2.50 Singapore dollars (about $2 U.S.) each, or charter the whole boat for 30 dollars.

    This small island at the north east of Singapore will take you away from the busy city streets. Enjoy the fishing village and its biking trails such as the one at the Ketam Mountain Bike Park.

    Pulau Ubin means "granite island" in Malaysian. It's a small island near Singapore main land, a nice place to escape from city life. You should rent a bicycle to explore around the island.

    We had a great time--beautiful island with lots of cycling n hiking routes. The old British Tudor house overlloking the sea at CheckJava is beautiful-with the only real fireplace in Singapore.

    Please bring HEAPS of mosquito repellant. The mosquitoes here are commandos and can even bite you when you're constantly moving.

    If you are renting a bike on Ubin, quote "YUAN XIN" at 25 bicycle rental( the one with orange paint, first stall on the left) and you would be given special rate! :)

    During a cycling hike, a friend fell from her bicycle while going downhill. Bruises all over the body. P. Ubin is definitely not a suitable place for cycling..
