Singapore Woodlands Waterfront Park | Family Day Out

Today welovedayout explored the north of Singapore. After a light lunch, we started driving from east to north. With Singapore's well connected expressways, it took us only 30 minutes by car to reach our destination. 

Woodlands Waterfront is a coastal park and it is a long waterfront promenade that stretches a distance of 1.5km. The park covers an 11-hectare area with a 400 meters ex-naval jetty that provide various fun recreational activities or events. The jetty actually overlooks our neighbouring state country, Johor, Malaysia. Our children joked that they wanted to swim across to Johor since is so near. This coastal park is also linked to Admiralty Park and a 25km Northern Explorer Park Connector Network.

It is a great place for families to have many fun activities. Children are being welcome by a huge playground. The two-storeys spiderweb looking Sky Bridges and Sky Cabins will definitely attract adventurous and energetic children, youths and adults.

Although this fun spiderweb playground is closed for maintenance, it did not dampened our spirits as the surroundings has other activities to offer us as well.

After playing for a long time at the playground, we finally started to explore other parts of the park. Dark clouds began to form. As we headed down to the 400m ex-naval jetty, rain started to pour.  We quickly ran to the nearest shelter for hiding.  And guess what?! It was SNACK TIME. It was so amazing, we found a restaurant in the middle of the jetty. Having a cup of coffee with a fantastic view and hearing the waves splashing, made us felt calm and contented. Ok that was just an understatement, we didn't just had coffee! We ordered ice cream waffles, fries and chicken wings. Not forgetting the root beer float, milo dinosaur and chendol. It certainly didn't sound like a snack time, it sounded more like a FEAST!

The rain finally stopped after our feast! We continued to explore the jetty on foot and on kick scooter.  Along the jetty we saw many fishing enthusiasts. Even the children treated the jetty like a running track chasing each other.

As we ended our fun and wet exploring day out at the Woodlands Waterfront, we made a decision to return another day when the spiderweb playground is open for our next family bonding outing.

Have a great weekend everyone! Catch us at our next fun family day out.
