Palawan Beach is one of the three main beaches on Sentosa Island. They are actually two semicircular bays and across from them is a small island with a lookout tower. There is also a Hydrodash attraction. Directly above the beach is the huge Capella Singapore hotel . The Palawan Beach Walk then runs along the coast.

Palawan Beach

All the beaches on Sentosa look quite similar – because they are artificially built together with the islets. There is golden sand and relatively few bathers.

Bridge to the island

If you are already on the Palawan beach, it is definitely worth using the nice rope bridge and going to the island with the lookout towers.

The southernmost point of continental Asia?

On the island there is this sign that you are at the southernmost point of continental Asia. In fact, this is nonsense, because even Singapore itself is an island, Sentosa lying south of it is also an island, and this small artificial island is also not a landmass at all. The real island lies a short distance away in Malaysia and is called Pontian Kechil.

Observation towers

There are two lookout towers of the same height next to each other on the island. Both are freely available with no entrance fee

View of the bridge from the lookout tower

There are quite nice views from the observation tower, although it would not hurt to be 4–5 meters higher

View of the western part of the beach

The western part of the beach with Hydrodash is not as nice as the eastern part.

Eastern part of the beach

The eastern part of the beach is picturesque and probably the best of the beaches on Sentosa.

View of the open sea

Basically, there is incredible maritime traffic around the whole of Singapore. Everywhere you look you see cargo ships.
