If you only try one ride in Singapore, make it the seaside. East Coast Park runs over 13km along the coast, and NParks lists a 15km Coastal Park Connector alongside it. The path is flat, and there is plenty to see along the way.
Before you start
NParks says East Coast Park is open 24 hours, and the nearest MRT station it lists is Bedok. For bikes, you can use a shared bike app or rent from a shop. NParks lists bike and skate rental shops in Areas B1 and E2. See our
guide for how the apps work, and our guide for the rules.Suggested plan
8am: Start from the Bedok end and pick up a bike. Ride at an easy pace, keep left and give way to walkers.
9.30am: Stop at the Cyclist Park in Area D, a dedicated spot NParks lists for cyclists. Have some water.
10.30am: Visit Coastal PlayGrove if you have children. NParks says it has Singapore's tallest outdoor slide and a water play area.
12pm: Lunch by the sea. NParks lists cafes and restaurants within the park.
2pm: Ride back, or continue on foot along the shoreline. Please check hours for any shops or cafes you plan to use.
