Pulau Ubin Chek Jawa Wetlands

A trip to Pulau Ubin is not complete without a visit to Chek Jawa. From the Ubin Jetty, you can either rent a cycle, hire a van, or even walk(40 mins)to Chek Jawa. If you cycle, do note that there are a couple of upslopes along the way. There is only a vending machine at the entrance, so bring sufficient water before visiting. As Chek Jawa is an intertidal area, it is best to go during Low tide. Check tide tables before visiting! Best to go in the morning with Low tide, as the area is not shaded and can get very hot! Plan about 1.5 hours for the visit. First stop is the visitor centre, which used to be a colonial house. the Tudor style house even has a fireplace. From there, can walk along the jetty to take nice photos of the surrounding. After that, walk along the coastal boardwalks and mangrove boardwalks to see what the exposed areas has to offer in terms of marine life and plants. Final stop is the 7 satires high Jejawi tower where you can view the tree canopy as well as the shoreline and beyond. #mustvisit
