The holidays are already here or just around the corner for most Singaporeans. Looking at the current situation, it is not 100% safe yet to travel overseas. However, if you are an adventurous person or someone who has no idea what to do this holiday, here are some suggestions we have got to offer. Included here are different types of activities ranging from exercising to exploring.
1) Zip Lining Across Bedok Reservoir With Forest Adventure
People of all ages will definitely enjoy a trip to Forest Adventure at Bedok Reservoir Park, especially for those who seek adventure. Forest Adventure offers a family-friendly treetop obstacle course that caters to different ages and heights. The facility is designed as such that it allows for greater independence for one to navigate most of the course on their own. For those who seek more adrenaline, there’s the Big Zip, which measure a whooping 300-metre zip-line, that will take the rider flying across the water of the reservoir.

2) Cycle Back To The Pre-Historic Era To Meet The Dinosaurs
Changi Airport has placed 20 life-sized dinosaurs in Singapore and they are hanging out in Jurassic Mile at Airport Boulevard. A huge Tyrannosaurus-Rex, gigantic dinosaur eggs and more displays can be seen across the 1km of cycling and jogging paths. You can arrive at Jurassic Mile by foot or cycling or see other ways of getting to the place here. However, we would suggest the scenic route by cycling from Hub & Spoke Cafe or from East Coast Park via the Changi Coastal Park Connector.
Address: From Hub & Spoke Cafe | 60 Airport Boulevard #01-T2S-02, Singapore Changi Airport, S(819643)

3) Kayak Fishing Might Be the One You Need With Fever SG
Those who have went fishing before will know that popular places such as Bedok Jetty can be crowded during the holiday season. By kayaking, you can fish in the middle of nowhere without much competition. Kayak Fishing Fever offers three different types of itineraries:
- The Playground (2 – 4km),
- Big Boat Small Boat (3 – 5km)
- Island Hopper (7 – 10km).
Put your fishing skills to the test but do note that fishes that are caught during the tours will be released back into the ocean as it is part of the company’s catch-and-release practice.
