Pulau Ubin

Pulau Ubin is a small island in the Johor Strait reachable by bumboat from Changi Village, and is the last place in Singapore where kampong (traditional village) life persists largely unchanged. The island's granite quarrying history is evident in flooded quarry pits that have become habitats for wildlife, and the Chek Jawa Wetlands on the eastern tip protect one of Singapore's last undeveloped coastal ecosystems containing mangrove, seagrass, and coral rubble. Cyclists exploring the unpaved tracks through secondary forest encounter wild boar, long-tailed macaques, and migratory birds.
