Sentosa Island,
One of My Favorite Places in Singapore!

Don’t ask me how many times I’d been visiting Sentosa Island because you won’t believe me. Yeah…your twenty fingers are not enough to count my visit.

You may shake your head and wondering what’s so good about this island.


Let me share these :

• Beaches in Sentosa (Palawan Beach, Tanjong Beach, Siloso Beach) are beautiful especially during the sunset.
  Grab your drink at the beach bars or stroll along the coast with bare foot.

  You’ll want to be here forever!
  

  





• Spend your weekend at Sentosa resort hotels with your spouse and make it your romantic getaways.

  Or, bring along your whole family for get-together session. Kids will love it!
  Leave your busy schedule in the city and have fun in the island.

• Enjoy all the attractions. Most of it is good for all ages - not just for kids though!
  We (my husband and I) love the Luge & Skyrider so much that we don’t mind to come here again and again for the Luge.

How does it sound?

Talking about the attractions, many of my friends either local or overseas told me that the entry tickets are expensive. But, after some conversations I found out that they actually are not sure about it.

If you are one of them, let me help you to plan your budget to enjoy the attractions in Sentosa Island.

There are basically 13 attractions which are priced from S$0.00 (Free) to S$19.00/ person for adult.

It will mean that you need to pay approx. S$136.90/ person for adult to enjoy all attractions.

However, you can choose the attractions you like most and spend about S$10.00 to S$75.00 per person.

These are the ticket prices :

My top five selections for attraction in Sentosa Island are:

1. Sentosa Luge and Skyride

   If you are looking for a thrill, get on to the luge which is part go-kart and part toboggan. The Southeast Asia first ever luge is only available in Sentosa Island!
