Pulau Ubin is a small island off of the east coast of Singapore The island houses tons of wild boars, monkeys, a wetland, and has preserved traditional Singaporean homes.
We started the morning taking a "Bumboat" from Singapore to Pulau Ubin. Twelve people were allowed on the bumboat. We rode with seven monks from Sri Lanka.
Once we got to the island we rented bikes and took a ride throughout the island. We rode to an amazing wetlands that had mangrove trees and a a tall tree house that we climbed to get a great view of the ocean and surrounding areas. We saw a mom and baby boar at the bike parking lot of the wetlands.
We then went to some tidal pools. We all had fun looking for crabs, sea snails and poking at different sponges and sea animals that I can't even begin to name.
We rode by an azure blue lake. It was fenced off so we couldn't get a close look, but it was beautiful. We saw a family of monkeys eating some fruit close to the lake, which made the kids very excited.
Pulau Ubin was probably our favorite activity in Singapore. It was relaxing, with amazing views and wild life.
