Mangrove Kayaking Adventure in Singapore
» Singapore » Singapore » Singapore
Friendly for beginners, come as you are because equipment and gear will be provided. Hop on one of our tandem kayaks in a pair or with our Expedition Leader, and you are set for your adventure!
The journey begins with a short length of open sea kayaking before entering the mangroves. You will immediately notice a sharp difference between the choppy open sea waves and tranquil calm waters among the mangroves.
Do not be fooled by the peacefulness as inactivity because the mangroves are abuzz with wildlife! For bird-watching enthusiasts, you will be able to spot species such as the Kingfishers, Eagles, Hornbills, Herons and Egrets – and that is just to name a few.

Fun low key kayaking trip

Fun kayaking trip. Good for beginners. Our guide Daniel was very patient and took time to teach us how to kayak.
Fun kayaking tour.

Great way to see a different side of Singapore. Very professional and well organised. My 15 year old and I enjoyed the experience.
A tranquil kampung and nature experience

My friend and I felt very well-prepared for the trip thanks to the clear and comprehensive instructions provided before the trip and the pre-event briefing from our guide. The kayaking activity was a much welcomed respite from the business of the mainland -- for a moment I forgot that I was in Singapore while paddling next to kelongs. Our guide expertly and patiently navigated us through the mangroves, so that we need not worry about getting lost had we explored the area on our own. Overall it was a slow-paced activity allowing time to take in one's surroundings and even lose one's sense of time, which also made the activity very beginner-friendly.
The shower facilities are makeshift cubicles for a simple rinse off, hence do not expect much -- perhaps that is what completes the kampung experience :)

Paddling through the mangroves, it was so quiet and peaceful. The guide was fantastic and grandma’s drinks were refreshing

Great little adventure for beginners. The guide was amazing, very passionate and well informed about the history of Pulau Ubin. He made the whole experience relaxing, enjoyable and stress free. He patiently explained to us significance of mangroves in the entire ecosystem and why they matter more than ever now. I will hope to come back for a longer trip around the island.
Great Experience and Enjoyable Day

Had a great experience kayaking. Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared some great insights about the village and its history. A very enjoyable day and a must do activity to see a different aspect to Singapore life.
Kayaking Adventure at Pulau Ubin
Deanne K, 30-11-2022
Our family of three loved tihs experience! It was easy to get to Pulau Ubin by bumboat and a very brief walk to the starting address. Our guide, Jared, customized the experience to the three of us. He provided the perfect balance of guidance and opportunities to explore on our own and was a great source of information about the local culture- for example the floating fish farms we kayaked past on our way to the mouth of the river and the impromptu temple built up at the halfway point of the trip. Kayaking through the mangroves is peaceful and easy. We saw several gorgeous herons and other birds. I definitely recommend this experience and this business to other families.
Great guide, fun trip

Great commentary to the interesting world of new and old visiting the kempangs and the mangroves. You can take it easy or row. It is your choice. The experience is fun rain or shine. Shout out to the friendly team!
Mangrove Kayaking Pulau Ubin

Me and my son went kayaking to the mangroves on the 27th of october. It was a sunny day and the trip was very beautiful. Also the instructor was knowledgable and in good mood even as our fellow canoeists. In shortly we very enjoyed this wonderful trip. If I may give critisicm, I saw many carbage in the mangrove area. It should be nice if your company set a good example to clean that up once a month, or clean it up once a week. That should be better for Flora and fauna and your company does a good thing for humankind.
Highly recommend - very peaceful - good fun

We were a group of 2 couples and had a fantastic tour.
Kevin was excellent - he went through all the safety checks and how to paddle/steer the kayaks before we set off..
During the tour he was very informative and obviously passionate about the swamp land how changes in the environment can effect the mangroves.
We have hired bikes and ridden around Palau Ubin many times.
First time kayaking and it was so beautiful.
Peaceful, the water was calm, the wildlife spotting was great and we had an excellent time.
Highly recommend if you want to chill out for a couple of hours and just let your cares flow away!!

Kayaking for all

Very relaxed kayaking along the coast and through the mangroves. Our guide was very friendly and helped us spot a number of birds - hornbill, sea eagles and a lovely blue kingfisher.
Recommend as a chance to experience another side of Singapore.
PS absolutely no reflection on this tour or it’s providers, but sad to see lots of rubbish floating along coastline.
