Pulau Bin

Post by bunty » Tue, 21 Mar 2006 9:51 am

Have heard so much about weekend getaway called Pulau bin. want to know the following:

How do we get there.

if it is for a full day, what do we do around there.

what sort of food can we expect.

for 2 persons, 1 full day outing- how much will the pocket become lighter by.

cheers

Not sure whether Pulau Ubin is the one you made enquiry about

If yes, here it is http://www.wildsingapore.com/ubin/
google it you'll find loads of information from search.

and get the map from here

aww... you should have joined us last week.. hmm,
Come to Changi Point Ferry Terminal..
alight at Tampinese MRT Station & hail a cab to Changi Village -less <S$7. Ferry is about S$4 for a return trip (per person)
I paid S$5 rent for a bicycle for > 3hours :wink:
Food is cheap - chinese food <S$15/person. Not sure of seafood pricing.
pocket become lighter lol.. I can assure you got nothing to worry about.

I believe I still have the brochure with me- PM me your email address perhaps I could scan it and forward it to you - guess this way is faster to reach you for you to make planning :D

not forgetting of sunblocks - lots of them :P

Have an enjoyable trip with your friend! :D

If yes, where did the extra 3bucks go to..?

I am interested in going to pulau ubin as well but I get sea sick so don't like boats much. How long does the ferry take and is it likely to cause seasickness?

The approx duration from changi village terminal to P'Ubin is about 10-12min. So you ought not to worry about getting sea sick :D

The trip to P'Ubin in the morning was quiet normal but had a great time when returning back, where we got a free sea'bath :P :twisted:
