Kidding aside, in our country, you’re more likely to find fancy glamping sites than rustic campgrounds so you won’t really experience backaches. But unbeknownst to many, there are hidden gems scattered around, perfect for those who crave a more traditional camping experience. Today, I’m spilling the beans on the best camping sites in Singapore because these spots deserve some love – and maybe a few more campers to make them popular\! ## East Coast Park > [View this post on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt-R13llguR/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) > > [A post shared by Mieke Dings (@miekedings)](https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt-R13llguR/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) **Media credit:** [miekedings](https://www.instagram.com/miekedings/) **Area Size:** 185 Hectares **Location:** E Coast Park Service Rd, Siglap Link, 447876 **Best For:** Beginners and Beach Lovers This sprawling park spans a whopping 185 hectares along the southeastern coast of Singapore. That’s a whole lot of space to explore\! As you venture deeper into the park, you’ll find designated camping areas nestled just a stone’s throw away from the beach’s sandy shores. Come evening, you’ll be treated to breathtaking sunsets that set the sky ablaze with hues of orange, pink, and purple – talk about Instagram-worthy moments\! What’s the best day to camp here? I’d say weekdays if you prefer a quieter, more serene camping experience. But if you’re up for some lively vibes and mingling with fellow campers, weekends are where it’s at\! As for the best time to set up camp, you should aim for late afternoon to catch the stunning sunset, then settle in for a cozy night under the stars. There are no rules for camping here, but to leave no trace – let’s keep this beautiful park pristine for future generations to enjoy\! | | |---| | **How to Get Here** To get to East Coast Park via public transportation, you can take the MRT to the nearest station, Paya Lebar MRT Station, along the East-West Line (Green Line) and the Circle Line (Yellow Line). Once you descend at Paya Lebar Station, head to Exit C and proceed to the outside bus stop. From there, you can take bus numbers 197 or 401 – both buses will take you directly to your destination, which takes 15 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. | ## Pulau Ubin > [View this post on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/COC-ze3AmNf/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) > > [A post shared by The Minstrel (@1aine)](https://www.instagram.com/p/COC-ze3AmNf/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) **Media credit**: [1aine](https://www.instagram.com/1aine/) **Area Size:** 10\.19 km² **Location:** 61 Pulau Ubin 508310 **Best For:** Campers Seeking a Wilderness Experience The camping scene here is all about embracing simplicity and reconnecting with nature. You won’t find fancy facilities or luxury amenities – just the raw beauty of the great outdoors. Pulau Ubin spans just 10.19 square kilometers, but don’t let its size fool you – there’s plenty to explore here. There are hidden beaches, secret coves, lush mangrove forests, and rugged trails that await your adventure. Seated campsites are scattered across the island, each offering unique views and atmosphere. Whether you prefer to camp near the beach, amidst dense forests, or overlooking tranquil lagoons, there’s a spot for you\! Some campers prefer to visit during the cooler months of December to February when the weather is mild and pleasant. Others opt for the shoulder seasons of March to April or September to October to avoid the crowds. Meanwhile, weekdays are generally less busy than weekends, so plan your trip accordingly if you want a quieter camping experience. Obtaining a camping permit from the National Parks Board (NParks) is crucial when camping on this island. You can apply for a camping permit online through the [NParks website](https://www.nparks.gov.sg/) or visit its office at Pulau Ubin to secure one in person. | | |---| | **How to Get Here** To get to Pulau Ubin, you’ll first need to take the MRT to the Tanah Merah Station, and from there, take a taxi or a bus service 2 to the Changi Point Ferry Terminal. Once you reach the terminal, take a bumboat ride to Pulau Ubin, which typically takes 10 minutes of travel time. | ## West Coast Park > [View this post on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/C4WLRHQS4B7/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) > > [A post shared by T O N E (@tonezone.mp4)](https://www.instagram.com/p/C4WLRHQS4B7/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) **Media credit:** [tonezone.mp4](https://www.instagram.com/tonezone.mp4/?locale=ru&hl=am-et&img_index=1) **Area Size:** 50 Hectares **Location:** Pasir Panjang Road 117603 **Best For:** Family Campers and Cyclists You can expect a laid-back and relaxed atmosphere when camping in this park.

But you can still enjoy a cozy evening dinner under the stars by bringing a portable camping stove or grill. Keep an eye on your cooking equipment and extinguish flames properly when you’re done. As for the best day and time to camp at West Coast Park, I’d recommend aiming for weekdays as weekends tend to be busier, especially during peak camping season. If you want to catch those epic sunset views, aim to arrive at the park in the late afternoon – around 5:00 pm or 6:00 pm should do the trick. The park is open to the public for recreational activities, including camping, as long as you abide by the park rules and regulations. However, checking with the park authorities beforehand is always a good idea for planning a larger gathering or organizing a special event. | | |---| | **How to Get Here** To get to West Coast Park, you should take the East-West Line MRT and alight at Clementi MRT Station.

The island offers designated camping areas where visitors can pitch their tents overnight. The authorities usually mark and maintain these spots to ensure a safe and enjoyable camping experience for everyone. This place is a remote paradise, so be sure you pack plenty of water, sunscreen, and insect repellent, as the island has limited amenities. Additionally, always let someone know your plans and expected return time before heading out, and be mindful of your surroundings – especially if you’re swimming or snorkeling in the open water. The best day and time to camp on this campsite depends on your preferences. Some campers prefer to arrive early in the morning to beat the crowds and catch the sunrise, while others prefer to come later in the day and set up camp just in time for sunset. Regardless of what day you choose to visit for camping, just be sure to check the weather forecast beforehand, as you’ll travel by sea to get to this location. | | |---| | **How to Get Here** To get to Lazarus Island, Singapore via public transportation, you must first go to Marina South Pier MRT Station. From there, you can take the Sentosa Express to Sentosa Station. When you arrive at Sentosa Station, head towards the Beach Station and look for the ferry terminal.

It’s like stepping into a serene oasis in the city’s heart\! Pasir Ris Park has designated camping areas equipped with basic facilities like barbecue pits, restrooms, and water points, so you can rest assured that your camping experience is convenient. Two popular campsites on the island are Jelutong Campsite and Mamam Campsite. Jelutong Campsite is nestled near the island’s western end, offering a secluded and serene camping experience. Mamam Campsite, on the other hand, is located in the central part of the island and provides basic facilities such as pit toilets and shelters. In this campsite, weekdays are generally less crowded than weekends, so if you prefer a quieter camping experience, consider planning your trip for Saturday or Sunday. If you’re a fan of starlit skies and cool breezes, camping during the year’s cooler months – from November to February is your best bet. | | |---| | **How to Get Here** To get to Pasir Ris Beach, go to your nearest MRT station, hop on the East West Line, and alight at Pasir Ris MRT Station.

Despite their spooky names, there’s nothing scary about these idyllic retreats. The islands are relatively small, but there is plenty of space for camping along the coastline. When setting up your tent, keep an eye out for areas above the high tide line – these are the safest spots to set up camp, ensuring that you stay dry even during high tide. While you can technically camp here year-round, the dry season from March to August is your best bet for clear skies and calm seas. The weather tends to be more forgiving during these months, with lower chances of rain ruining your outdoor adventure. As for the best day to camp, weekdays are your friend – you’ll have the island virtually to yourself, minus the weekend crowds. It’s best to always check the weather forecast before setting out – Singapore’s tropical climate can be unpredictable, so it’s best to be prepared for rain or shine. | | |---| | **How to Get Here** To get to Pulau Hantu you must ride an MRT via Marina South Pier Station, and make your way to the Marina South Pier Ferry Terminal, just a short walk from the station. Once you arrive at the ferry terminal, purchase a ticket to Pulau Hantu.

Thanks to modern engineering and soundproofing measures, the noise from the aircraft is minimal, so you can still enjoy a peaceful camping night without being disturbed. If you’re a morning person, consider camping on a weekend and waking up early to catch the sunrise in this location – trust me, it’s worth it\! This camping spot boasts stunning sunset views over the sea, adding a touch of magic to the camping experience. | | |---| | **How to Get Here** To reach Changi Beach Park in Singapore using public transportation, take the MRT alight at Tanah Merah Station and switch to bus service number 2. The bus journey, lasting approximately 25 minutes, will bring you to the Changi Beach Park stop. Once you arrive, you’ll be at your destination, with just a brief stroll to the park entrance.
