A trip to the most famous beach in Singapore
In Singapore, or on the island of Sentosa, you will find a number of nice beaches. Probably the most famous of them is Siloso, which is basically several half-moon bays with opposite islets. All built up, not a natural beach. In addition, it wouldn't be Sentosa, so there wouldn't be a lack of various attractions here either. The most famous of them is MegaZip.
On Siloso beach
Siloso Beach Walk is a road leading behind Siloso Beach. There are bus stops serving Sentosa Island. There are also several parking lots for those who come here by car. The beach itself looks nice at first glance, if you consider that it is artificially created and there are many different buildings around.
Two landmarks of the beach
The beach itself has nice sand, but the locals are more likely to take pictures here than to go swimming. The beach itself has two major landmarks. At the very western end is the huge Shangri-La Rasa Sentosa hotel and then the MegaZip structure
Machine gun nest
Here too, as in various places on Sentosa Island, you will find military monuments, when the island was basically made into one big fortress. The island was fortified from the end of the 19th century to protect the entrance to Keppel Harbour
Tropical vegetation behind the beach
Just behind the beach rises the hill of Imbiah, still overgrown with lush tropical vegetation. You will also find beautifully blooming Heliconia here.
Bungee Silo
You can also Bungee Jump from the massive structure
Siloso Beach Island
You can also go to one of the islands with dry feet on the bridge. This is also where the ZIP line ends.
Swimming at Siloso
The beach itself cannot be compared to, for example, Thai beaches, but swimming is pleasant. Thanks to the relatively early depth here, the beach is suitable for swimming even at low tide, which is not the rule for all tropical beaches.
The iconic location of Siloso beach
On Siloso Beach, perhaps the most photogenic spot is the rock with two palm trees just a short distance from the Shangri-la Hotel
