form of sports and recreation but it also helps develop one’s mind,
body and coordination. There will also be thrills aplenty on the
ground watching family and friends conquer their fear of heights!

Sentosa Beaches
Beach devotees and seasports fans have known about it for some
time now: Sentosa boasts three of the finest beaches this side of
Singapore. With beachfronts 30m wide, dazzling landscaping features,
clean waters and soft sands, Tanjong, Siloso and Palawan Beach have
attracted a loyal following amongst water-lovers with diverse
interests.
Tanjong Beach, the quietest stretch at the eastern end of the
island, is a favorite with families who treasure its tranquility and
solitude. Here, armed with your favorite book, you can while away
the hours with the sun and a gentle breeze for company. This stretch
of beach gets especially romantic by night, with the twinkling
lights of ships docked at the nearby port.
 On the eastern end is Palawan Beach, where a suspension bridge links
beach-goers to what is believed to be the Southernmost Point of
Continental Asia, or Asia’s closest point to the Equator.
For those who like their day at the beach more strenuous and
vigorous, Siloso Beach is the unofficial home of beach volleyball
enthusiasts who congregate here for their game. Then drop by the new
retail/F&B outlets along Siloso Beach for a refreshing ice cream,
drinks, yummy sushi or some trendy beach gear. You'll be spoilt for
choice at COASTES, Sakae Sushi, New Zealand Natural Ice Cream,
Billabong and Island Life Shop. If you’re in time for the daily
Animal and Bird Encounters on this stretch of beach, be sure to
include it in your itinerary.
Other beach/water activities to engage in include beach soccer,
basketball, kayaking, roller-blading and cycling. Don’t fret if you
didn’t pack your rollerblades or bicycle. There’s plenty to choose
from at the rental kiosks located along Siloso and Palawan Beach.
