Pedal into Singapore’s coastal fringes aboard Hobie fishing kayaks and fish reefs, channels and sand flats around Sentosa and the Southern Islands. Guided day, sunset and night trips teach techniques and put you on snappers, groupers and trevally while offering a unique city-from-the-sea perspective.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
At first light the Singapore skyline loosens its grip on the horizon and the sea answers with a cool, briny palm. You push off from a low concrete ramp onto glassy water, settle into an orange Hobie fishing kayak, click your feet into the Mirage Drive and feel the craft glide as if it were part of your body. Around you, the Southern Islands sit like quiet reefs on the lip of the city — islands that dare you to chase the snap and tug of a tropical fish while the mainland hums on。
