Punggol Beach does not look like a typical sandy beach. Independent travel writers describe it as a rocky shoreline with large boulders, which makes it a favourite for photographers, especially at sunrise and sunset. It sits close to the west entrance of Coney Island.
Suggested plan
3pm: Take bus 84 from Punggol Interchange to Punggol Point Park or Punggol Settlement (per a Tripadvisor guide). Please check the route on your transit app.
3.30pm to 5pm: Visit Coney Island Park. NParks describes it as a 50-hectare, ecologically sustainable park with over 80 species of birds, accessible from Punggol Promenade and Punggol Point Walk. You can cycle there, and bikes can be rented near Punggol Point.
5pm to 6.30pm: Head to the rocks for golden-hour photos. Wear shoes with good grip, as the rocks can be slippery, and keep an eye on the tide.
Photography tips
- Check the tide times before you go. Rocks may be partly covered at high tide.
- Bring a tripod and a small towel for wet shoes.
- Leave the rocks and marine life as you found them.
