Ketam Beach: A Serene Escape in Singapore

Getting There

• Public Transportation

  From Changi Point Ferry Terminal, take a bumboat to Pulau Ubin. The ferry ride costs around SGD 3 per person and operates from 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM, with boats leaving as soon as there are enough passengers (usually about 12). Once you arrive at Pulau Ubin, you will be at the main jetty.

• Bicycle Rental

  At the main jetty, you can rent a bicycle from various vendors. Rental prices typically range from SGD 8 to SGD 20 for a full day. Once you have your bicycle, head southeast towards Ketam Beach. Follow the main road, Jalan Ubin, for about 2.5 km until you reach the junction at the end of the road. Turn left onto Jalan Endut Senin and continue for about 1 km.

• Walking

  If you prefer to walk, after arriving at the main jetty, head southeast along the main road, Jalan Ubin. This route is approximately 3.5 km and will take about 45 minutes to an hour. Walk past the traditional villages and enjoy the scenery as you make your way to Ketam Beach. When you reach the junction, turn left onto Jalan Endut Senin, which will lead you directly to the beach.

• Car (if applicable)

  For those driving, park at Changi Point Ferry Terminal. Note that you cannot drive on Pulau Ubin as it is an island with limited vehicle access. You will still need to take a bumboat to reach the island. Once on Pulau Ubin, follow the same directions as for cycling or walking to reach Ketam Beach.
