Take a $6 trip on a bumboat to get to this island sanctuary from Changi Port Ferry Terminal. One of Singapore’s last kampongs, Pulau Ubin will give you a glimpse of how life was in the city in the garden back in the 1960s. The 10.2 square kilometer island is also home to House No. 1 a new visitor center where you can explore the building and enjoy the sea view.
Take a trek along the coastal boardwalk, and hike up to Jejawi Tower. It’s easiest to explore the island on bike, so luckily there are numerous bicycle vendors to bargain with for a cheap deal.
