These designated areas for fishing are usually located within
natural parks
and
reservoirs
, so youâll be surrounded by beautiful nature while you wait for something to bite your bait.Â
Have your
fishing rod
ready! Here are the top fishing spots in Singapore.
MacRitchie Reservoir Park
â From: heshan.de
Address
: Lornie Rd, Singapore 298735Â
Operating Hours
: Monday to Sundayâ7 am to 7 pm
MacRitchie Reservoir Park
is the oldest reservoir in Singaporeâit was constructed all the way back in 1868! Since this reservoir is more than a century old, it still houses remnants of the primary forest as well as other flora and fauna.Â
The waters of the reservoir are also rich in aquatic life. When I came here one time, I mostly got threadfin acara and snakehead murrells.Â
Bear in mind that the designated fishing area here is the stretch between the Paddle Lodge and Promenade. Also, thereâs no fishing gear rental here, so be sure to bring your own.Â
Upper Seletar Reservoir Park
â From: brainylynn
Address
: Mandai Rd Track 7, Singapore
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
The Upper Seletar Reservoir Park is another fishing spot that has been around for quite some time. It was built in 1920 and officially opened to the public by Her Royal Highness, Princess Alexandra, the Honorable Lady Ogilvy on August 10, 1969.Â
This reservoir park is teeming with various
wildlife
, including long-tailed macaques. In terms of fish, the most commonly caught species include the butterfly peacock bass and spotted bonytongue.
Lower Seletar Reservoir Park
â From: unsercast
Address
: Yishun Ave 1, Lower Seletar Reservoir Park, Singapore 769139Â
Operating Hours
: Monday to Sundayâ7 am to 7 pm
Contact Number
: +6518004717300
At 4.3 hectares, Lower Seletar Reservoir Park has many facilities that everyone can enjoy. The highlights include Heritage Bridge and a water play area with
fun water fountains
and a bioswale rain garden.Â
For anglers, the fishing jetty is the best place to be. This jetty juts out into the reservoir waters, so you have more opportunity to reel in all kinds of fish.Â
So far, Iâve noticed that the most common fish species found here are Indonesian snakehead, clown knifefish, eartheater cichlid, and butterfly peacock bass.Â
Yishun Dam
â From: jimhawk
Address
: ââYishun Ave 1, Singapore 769130
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Yishun Dam is mostly known for being an
Instagram-worthy spot
because of its scenic view, but itâs also a popular destination for people who love recreational fishing.Â
Fishing is only allowed on the right side of the dam, which is the side opposite to the one facing the reservoir waters. Itâs kind of tricky to fish hereâitâs more likely that you wonât catch somethingâbut if youâre lucky, you might get giant snakehead.Â
Pandan Reservoir Park
â From: lhs5967
Address
: 700 West Coast Rd, Singapore 608785Â
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Located in the West Region, Pandan Reservoir was formed by damming the mouth of Sungei Pandan. Because of this, itâs the largest service reservoir in Singapore that provides non-potable water to the nearby industrial areas.Â
Additionally, the reservoir is home to a great variety of fish. In particular, anglers will be able to catch butterfly peacock bass, speckled peacock bass, longfin tilapia, and sheepshead.
Kranji Reservoir
â From: lieyinga
Address
: Kranji Way, Singapore
Operating Hours
: Monday to Sundayâ7 am to 7 pm
Since the Kranji Reservoir is houses a freshwater river that flows out into the sea, it can be considered an estuary as well. Itâs also home to a marsh.Â
Because of this, Kranji Reservoir is a primefishing ground. There are also two designated fishing areas, so if youâre having trouble catching something in one area, you can head to the other one and try your luck there.Â
Most anglers catch prawns and crayfishes here, but along the rocky banks, eels and marble gobies are more common.  Â
Woodlands Jetty
â From: xcarrolx
Address
: Woodlands Waterfront Park, Admiralty Rd W, Singapore 759956
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Woodlands Jetty is one of the main highlights of Woodlands Waterfront Park. At 400 meters, itâs the longest jetty in Singapore, so understandably, itâs hard to miss it.Â
The end of the jetty is the only spot youâre allowed to fish in this park, but donât worry because the waters are teeming with aquatic life. Barracuda is the most common species caught here, which is great for anglers because this fish can weigh up to 6 kg!
Aside from barracudas, you can also reel in mangrove jacks, golden snappers, and marine catfish.Â
Bedok Jetty
â From: palmsangler_lauretteÂ
Address
: East Coast Park Service Road, Singapore 449876
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Contact Number
: +6518004717300
Speaking of long jetties, another perfect example is Bedok Jetty, which is located in
East Coast Park
.
The great thing about Bedok Jetty is that you get an excellent variety of fish.Â
Expert anglers can even reel in fish so huge you canât help but be impressed. Iâm still astounded by the fact that someone caught a 33-kg brown stingray in 2008!
Aside from brown stingrays, people have caught cobias, shovel-nose sharks, and honeycomb whip rays.Â
Bedok Jetty is also known for being a
wonderful spot for viewing sunsets
, so if you come here late in the afternoon, you might be able to treat yourself to a beautiful sight. Â
Punggol Point Jetty
â From: kwongyewwatt
Address
: Punggol Promenade Nature Walk, Singapore
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Punggol Point Jetty may be short and small, so youâll probably have to bump into your fellow anglers because it can get crowded most of the time. That said, donât completely dismiss this as a potential fishing ground because it has a lot to offer!
Here, youâre most likely going to catch groupers, barramundis, rabbitfish, and sand whitings. Youâre also free to bring home your catch, so you donât have to worry about what to eat for dinner anymore.Â
Sembawang Jetty
â From: traveltales_rv
Address
: Beaulieu Rd, Singapore 759837
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Located in
Sembawang Park
, Sembawang Jetty is a historical jetty thatâs been around since the 1940s. In fact, its construction was paused at first due to the occupation of Singapore, but ultimately, the Japanese completed it.Â
Even though itâs technically decades old, Sembawang Jetty still stands strong. Itâs pretty popular among anglers, especially ones who are new to this activity, and you can reel in a surprising catch, such as spotted sicklefish, chermins, and groupers.Â
Pasir Ris Town Park Fishing Pond
â From: elimchew77thstreet
Address
: Along, Pasir Ris Central, Opposite MRT Station, Singapore 519639Â
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Pasir Town Park is best known for being a great hangout spot for couples and families, but anglers prefer the pond sitting right in the center of the park.Â
Unfortunately, fishing here isnât free unlike the other places on this list, but if you can afford S$56 per session, I recommend giving this pond a try. Also, I recommend the Main Pond over the Pro Pond because youâre more likely to catch more there.
A good variety of saltwater fish is what youâll get in this fishing pond. Examples include sea bass, snappers, pomfrets, and groupers.Â
Serangoon Reservoir
â From: caveman_sean
Address
: Pasir Ris Coast Industrial Park 6, Singapore
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Many anglers have Serangoon Reservoir as their favorite fishing spot because itâs cool and serene, but if you do come here, do keep in mind that it can be tricky to catch something here.Â
The challenge is mostly due to the weather and tide levels, so I recommend researching beforehand when the best time to fish in the reservoir is.Â
From my experience, I mostly got Mayan cichlids, tilapias, gobies, green chromides, archerfish, and peacock bass.Â
Lower Peirce Reservoir
â From: charmainewhjÂ
Address
: Along Old Upper Thomson Road, Singapore
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
If youâre in Central Region, Lower Peirce Reservoir is an ideal fishing spot for you. This reservoir, which is the second oldest in Singapore, was formed by impounding the upper parts of the Kallang River, so itâs home to many species of freshwater fish.Â
Some of the fish youâll catch here include butterfly peacock bass, clown knifefish, Indonesian snakehead, and eartheater cichlid.Â
If youâre traveling with your child, they might be interested in catching yabbies on the shores. Catching yabbies is tricky and takes a lot of patience, but the activity might be a great way to bond with your children, especially if theyâre interested in fishing as well.
Pulau Ubin
â From: typical_stefanos_travelbook
If none of the fishing spots on the mainland caught your attention, you might be interested in trying out the
islands off the coast of Singapore
. One perfect example is Pulau Ubin.Â
Pulau Ubin is located northeast of mainland Singapore, and itâs mostly popular among avid cyclists and hikers because of its winding trails and beautiful scenery. This island is also home to various bodies of water, so anglers love coming here too.Â
The best places to fish on this island include NPCC campsite beach, Nordin Beach, Mamam Campsite, Jelutong Campsite, Pontoon Jetty, and Ubin Main Jetty.Â
Keep in mind that fishing isnât allowed at all quarries in Pulau Ubin.Â
Bedok Reservoir Park
â From: lhs5967
Address
: 760 Bedok Reservoir Rd, Singapore 479245Â
Operating Hours
: Monday to Sundayâ7 am to 7 pm
Contact Number
: +6518004717300Â
Bedok Reservoir is the first reservoir to ever hold water sports activities in Singapore; the Launch of Water Sports Activity was hosted on October 17, 2004. Since then, thrillseekers come here to try kayaking, wakeboarding, sailing, and canoeing.
Fishing is also pretty popular here because thereâs a varied array of aquatic life to catch. From my experience, invasive fish species are commonly found here; examples include African walking catfish, tarpon, giant snakehead, and peacock bass.Â
M
arina Reservoir
â From: ab_boyce5
Address
:
Marina Reservoir Fishing Zone 1â5 Geylang Rd, Singapore
Marina Reservoir Fishing Zone 2â398 Kallang Rd, Singapore 339098
Marina Reservoir PUB Fishing SiteâKallang Riverside Park
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours (for all sites)
What makes Marina Reservoir a great place for anglers is that there are three fishing zones to choose from. So, you have more chances of reeling in some great fish, and if you donât catch something in one zone, you can always try in the other ones.Â
Peacock bass is the most common species caught here, but thereâs also the possibility of finding exotic species like an alligator gar (which is native to North America) and Sunda river catfish (native to large river systems in Malaysia and Indonesia).Â
Jurong Lake
â From: mayukkgÂ
Address
: Yuan Ching Rd, Singapore
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Jurong Lake is the main attraction of
Jurong Lake Gardens
, and itâs where visitors engage in water sports activities or try to spot aquatic life. Jurong Lake is also a great fishing spot; the designated area is by the Southern Promenade.Â
Anglers can enjoy a mixed assortment of fish species. So far, Iâve caught butterfly peacock and speckled peacock bass and marble gobies, while my friends have reeled in Asian redtail catfish, and Mayan and Midas cichlids.Â
Kolam Ayer BC Waterfront
â Fron: jmtvllog
Address
: 64 Kallang Bahru, Singapore
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Kolam Ayer BC Waterfront is the first project under the Active, Beautiful, Clean Waters (ABC) Program. Opened in 2008, this project features a 200-meter stretch of the Kallang River with lookout decks, interactive water elements, and a fishing ground.
Japanese fish and catfish are the commonly caught species here, but you can also find other species like giant snakeheads.Â
Sometimes, you might also spot a few otters in the river! When you do, please only watch them from a distance.Â
Pelton Canal
â From: antolin0916
Pelton Canal is part of the Pelton Canal Park Connector, so most people just pass it by when theyâre jogging or hiking. But if youâve been into recreational fishing for a while, youâll know that many anglers flock to this canal to fish.Â
In fact, this spot is so popular that youâll probably have a lot of competition when you come hereâeven if you arrive earlier in the day. If youâre skilled enough, you might be able to take home various fish, including carp, tilapia, and catfish.Â
Rochor Canal
â From: ramboll_studio_dreiseitl
Often called âthe artery of Singaporeâ because it snakes through the center of the island, Rochor Canal houses a thriving ecosystem of aquatic life, such as catfish, barramundi, and tilapia.Â
Because of this, the canal is a prime spot for anglers. Currently, there are five legal fishing decks along the canal: one at Bugis Junction, two at Sim Lim Square, and two more at Sungei Road.
Changi Beach Park
â From: jimmytst
Address
: Nicoll Dr, Singapore 498991Â
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Changi Beach Park is located all the way out in
East Singapore
, so many anglers might think itâs too far for them. But donât let its distance stop you from coming here to fish.Â
The variety of fish to catch here is pretty impressive; personally, Iâve reeled in goatee croakers, veined catfish, sickle fish, and squids. Meanwhile, other people have reported catching barramundis and brown stingrays.Â
I recommend coming to Changi Bay Park sometime between November and March since this is the period when there arenât that many people swimming in the water.Â
Pang Sua Canal
Â
â From: gorilla240165
Address
: Choa Chu Kang Walk, Singapore
Operating Hours
: Open 24 hours
Pang Sua Canal is another project under the ABC Waters Program, so it looks like a green park. Thereâs a deck where people can chill and enjoy the scenery as well as a rock stream.Â
Anglers will also love this place because itâs home to a diverse set of fish. Some of the most commonly caught species here are tilapias, barramundis, giant snakeheads, and peacock bass.Â
From my experience, May to October is the best time to stop by Pang Sua Canal because thatâs when the water level in the canal is at its peak. |

**Operating Hours**: Open 24 hours
Woodlands Jetty is one of the main highlights of Woodlands Waterfront Park. At 400 meters, itâs the longest jetty in Singapore, so understandably, itâs hard to miss it.
The end of the jetty is the only spot youâre allowed to fish in this park, but donât worry because the waters are teeming with aquatic life. Barracuda is the most common species caught here, which is great for anglers because this fish can weigh up to 6 kg\!
Aside from barracudas, you can also reel in mangrove jacks, golden snappers, and marine catfish.

The great thing about Bedok Jetty is that you get an excellent variety of fish.
Expert anglers can even reel in fish so huge you canât help but be impressed. Iâm still astounded by the fact that someone caught a 33-kg brown stingray in 2008\!
Aside from brown stingrays, people have caught cobias, shovel-nose sharks, and honeycomb whip rays.
Bedok Jetty is also known for being a [wonderful spot for viewing sunsets](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/sunset-spots-singapore/), so if you come here late in the afternoon, you might be able to treat yourself to a beautiful sight.

Even though itâs technically decades old, Sembawang Jetty still stands strong. Itâs pretty popular among anglers, especially ones who are new to this activity, and you can reel in a surprising catch, such as spotted sicklefish, chermins, and groupers.

Some of the fish youâll catch here include butterfly peacock bass, clown knifefish, Indonesian snakehead, and eartheater cichlid.
If youâre traveling with your child, they might be interested in catching yabbies on the shores. Catching yabbies is tricky and takes a lot of patience, but the activity might be a great way to bond with your children, especially if theyâre interested in fishing as well.

Pulau Ubin is located northeast of mainland Singapore, and itâs mostly popular among avid cyclists and hikers because of its winding trails and beautiful scenery. This island is also home to various bodies of water, so anglers love coming here too.
The best places to fish on this island include NPCC campsite beach, Nordin Beach, Mamam Campsite, Jelutong Campsite, Pontoon Jetty, and Ubin Main Jetty.

What makes Marina Reservoir a great place for anglers is that there are three fishing zones to choose from. So, you have more chances of reeling in some great fish, and if you donât catch something in one zone, you can always try in the other ones.
Peacock bass is the most common species caught here, but thereâs also the possibility of finding exotic species like an alligator gar (which is native to North America) and Sunda river catfish (native to large river systems in Malaysia and Indonesia).

Pelton Canal is part of the Pelton Canal Park Connector, so most people just pass it by when theyâre jogging or hiking. But if youâve been into recreational fishing for a while, youâll know that many anglers flock to this canal to fish.
In fact, this spot is so popular that youâll probably have a lot of competition when you come hereâeven if you arrive earlier in the day. If youâre skilled enough, you might be able to take home various fish, including carp, tilapia, and catfish.

Changi Beach Park is located all the way out in [East Singapore](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/discover-east-singapore-attractions/), so many anglers might think itâs too far for them. But donât let its distance stop you from coming here to fish.
The variety of fish to catch here is pretty impressive; personally, Iâve reeled in goatee croakers, veined catfish, sickle fish, and squids. Meanwhile, other people have reported catching barramundis and brown stingrays.
I recommend coming to Changi Bay Park sometime between November and March since this is the period when there arenât that many people swimming in the water.

From my experience, May to October is the best time to stop by Pang Sua Canal because thatâs when the water level in the canal is at its peak.

Japanese fish and catfish are the commonly caught species here, but you can also find other species like giant snakeheads.
Sometimes, you might also spot a few otters in the river! When you do, please only watch them from a distance.
### **Pelton Canal**
â From: antolin0916
Pelton Canal is part of the Pelton Canal Park Connector, so most people just pass it by when theyâre jogging or hiking. But if youâve been into recreational fishing for a while, youâll know that many anglers flock to this canal to fish.
In fact, this spot is so popular that youâll probably have a lot of competition when you come hereâeven if you arrive earlier in the day. If youâre skilled enough, you might be able to take home various fish, including carp, tilapia, and catfish.
### **Rochor Canal**

Often called âthe artery of Singaporeâ because it snakes through the center of the island, Rochor Canal houses a thriving ecosystem of aquatic life, such as catfish, barramundi, and tilapia.
Because of this, the canal is a prime spot for anglers. Currently, there are five legal fishing decks along the canal: one at Bugis Junction, two at Sim Lim Square, and two more at Sungei Road.

Changi Beach Park is located all the way out in [East Singapore](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/discover-east-singapore-attractions/), so many anglers might think itâs too far for them. But donât let its distance stop you from coming here to fish.
The variety of fish to catch here is pretty impressive; personally, Iâve reeled in goatee croakers, veined catfish, sickle fish, and squids. Meanwhile, other people have reported catching barramundis and brown stingrays.
I recommend coming to Changi Bay Park sometime between November and March since this is the period when there arenât that many people swimming in the water.
### **Pang Sua Canal**

**Operating Hours**: Open 24 hours
Pang Sua Canal is another project under the ABC Waters Program, so it looks like a green park. Thereâs a deck where people can chill and enjoy the scenery as well as a rock stream.
Anglers will also love this place because itâs home to a diverse set of fish. Some of the most commonly caught species here are tilapias, barramundis, giant snakeheads, and peacock bass.
From my experience, May to October is the best time to stop by Pang Sua Canal because thatâs when the water level in the canal is at its peak. |
