Things to do in Singapore on weekend

Some of you might be wondering what am I doing on weekend here.. Yes, it is a small city indeed but there actually things that you could do here where you couldn't do it in our lovely Jekarda.


East Coast Park
Local people here loves to do outdoor activities during weekend. There is a big park in front of the beach called the East Coast Park. You could do a lot of activities here like cycling, jogging, barbeque-ing or even just go for a walk and have dinner.. You could see all of the available activities here


I did a barbeque party with my colleagues from the office a while ago. So basically we just rent the barbeque pit (it cost you about 20 bucks for 4 hours of use) and there is an online delivery package for barbeque that caters to everything you need.. isn't that cool!! The package includes the food, drinks, plates, charcoal, alumunium foil, etc.


You have to take taxi or bus to reach here as it is not near to any MRT.


Sentosa Island
There are lots of things to do in Sentosa other than visiting the Universal Studio. Basically, there are four main areas in Sentosa, Imbiah Lookout, Siloso Point, Beaches and Resort World Sentosa (this is where Universal Studio is located).


The cheapest way to reach Sentosa is by taking the Sentosa Express. How to get there? Easy, just take the purple line MRT to Harbourfront and then go to the 3rd floor where Sentosa Express station is located. It will cost you 3 bucks per person to ride the Sentosa Express. There are 3 stations in the Sentosa Island where the Sentosa Express goes.


On some weekends, I like to go to the last station, it's near the beach, and ride the Skyline Luge. Skyline Luge is a combination of skyride and go-cart. The skyride will take you to a higher point where after you reach there you will go down with your go-cart in a downhill designed track. It's quite fun and refreshing. 


You could also ride segway, cycling, swimming, etc at Sentosa Island. For more information about Sentosa please see here  


Okay, I can't think of anything else. Will write again later then..
