For the eternal student

Tour Fort Siloso

Most people go to Siloso Beach to soak up some sun, but try something else and visit Fort Siloso, which houses Singapore’s largest collection of World War II memorabilia. As you follow the tour, you’ll see guns, cannons, film clips and photographs from the 1940s.

Fort Siloso usually charge around S$10-12 for adults. But if you go on Fridays, the weekend, and public holidays from 12:30pm to 3:30pm, you can join the free guided tour at Beach station!

Attend military boot camp at Combat Skirmish Live

Do you think you have what it takes to win a war? Experience a hyper-realistic role-play of the final battle between Japan and the colonial powers at Fort Siloso.

Begin operations in a mock planning room where you’ll pick up your military uniform and laser gaming gun, and head off. Your goal is to infiltrate enemy territory and rescue a missing scientist. Play the villains or the hero in the underground tunnels of the historic battle. Perfect for large groups, this is a great way to strengthen (or test) your friendship!

Take a break from the grind of city life and escape to the sand and oceans. Pack a beach blanket, a big umbrella, and a basket full of goodies for you and the gang and just enjoy the warm sun on Siloso Beach. Don’t let the fun end at Sentosa’s rides by bringing a couple of board games for everyone to enjoy.

Catch the Crane Dance

It’s a simple story: the Blue Crane and the Pink Crane fall in love. But Sentosa’s Crane Dance is a spectacular light and sound extravaganza that manages to make 30-meter high animatronic cranes look graceful and romantic.

While the show only lasts for 10 minutes, you’ll be holding your breath the entire time. The cranes move through jets of water amidst a kaleidoscope of colour with dramatic music playing in the background. We guarantee it’s a great way to cap off your Sentosa trip.

If it’s your first time at the magical island, don’t miss out on the classic attractions like Universal Studios, the SEA Aquarium, and Sentosa Tiger Sky Tower. Whether you’re doing all that hipster stuff or hitting up the usuals, you’ll never run out of things to do at Sentosa!
