Sentosa Island
Sentosa Island is Singapore's premier entertainment destination. On the small island you will find beaches, cultural visits and various attractions.
In the late nineteenth century the British made Sentosa a defensive fortress. It was in 1967 when the island was returned to the government and became a holiday destination.
As a curiosity, Sentosa Island is the southernmost point of the Asian continent. Although it sounds (and is) too touristy, do not miss the visit to make them the traditional photo.
Sentosa Island Beaches
Sentosa Island has three small beaches where you can take a warm bath: Siloso, Palawan and Tanjong. These beaches total a total of 3.2 kilometers of coastline.
The beaches are artificial and isolated from the ocean by means of dikes, so do not expect to find big waves. In exchange they offer the possibility of practicing sports like volleyball, soccer, cycling, skating or kayak.
On the beaches you will also find toilets, showers, lockers and even wireless internet access points.
To go from one beach to another you can use the tram that runs along the coast, it's free.
Siloso Beach
Siloso Beach is the youngest and liveliest beach in Singapore. On this beach there are several volleyball nets and is preferred for sports.
In Siloso you will find a franchise of Café del Mar, the famous Ibiza town.
Palawan beach
Palawan is our favorite beach. There are not as many people as in Siloso and it has some bars and souvenir shops.
In Palawan is the suspension bridge that leads to the most southern end of Continental Asia.
Tanjong Beach
If you are looking for tranquility, Tanjong is your choice. It is the most easterly beach in Sentosa and few people come to it.
