It wasn't long, but it was fun. It's something that both adults and kids would enjoy. It was a bit pricey, but I bought it anyway because it was a trip. The canopy park was also great. I think I understand why it's called the best in the world!!

It's a good place to eat, hydrate and refresh while waiting for your flight. It's located way over the farthest left side of the Departures area tho, so could be a bit tricky if your boarding gate is located on the right side.

Remarkable Landmarks and Must-Visit Sights

Chek Jawa Wetlands

Welcome to the Chek Jawa Wetlands, a sprawling 100-hectare natural paradise where diverse ecosystems converge. From sandy beaches and rocky shores to seagrass lagoons and mangroves, this biodiversity hotspot is a treasure trove for nature enthusiasts. Don't miss the chance to spot the newly discovered Utania nervosa plant species, making your visit both educational and awe-inspiring.

Jejawi Tower

Ascend to new heights at the Jejawi Tower, a 21-meter tall structure offering panoramic views of Chek Jawa's stunning landscapes. Perfect for bird-watching and photography, this seven-storey tower named after the native Malayan Banyan tree provides a unique vantage point to soak in the beauty of the wetlands. Capture the essence of nature from above and make unforgettable memories.

Chek Jawa Boardwalk

Embark on a self-guided adventure along the Chek Jawa Boardwalk, a 1km trail that winds through the Mangrove and Coastal Loops. Open daily from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm, this boardwalk offers an immersive experience into the rich biodiversity of the area. With lookout platforms, a floating pontoon, and educational panels, you'll have plenty of opportunities to learn and marvel at the natural wonders around you.

Cultural and Historical Significance

Chek Jawa's story is one of nature's triumph. Initially marked for land reclamation in 1992, its incredible biodiversity was discovered in 2000, sparking a wave of public support for its preservation. By 2001, plans for reclamation were halted, ensuring this natural gem remains for future generations to explore and cherish.

Local Cuisine

While Chek Jawa itself doesn't have dining facilities, a short trip to the main village of Pulau Ubin will reward you with a delightful culinary experience. Indulge in fresh seafood and traditional Malay dishes that reflect the island's rich culinary heritage. It's a perfect way to complement your nature adventure with a taste of local flavors.

Cultural and Historical Significance

Chek Jawa is a beacon of conservation success in Singapore. Saved from reclamation in 2001 due to the passionate efforts of conservationists and the public, it stands today as a symbol of hope and environmental stewardship. This area is celebrated by many Singaporeans for its natural beauty and historical importance.

Singapore Blue Plan 2018

The Singapore Blue Plan 2018 envisions a future where the intertidal and subtidal marine areas of Pulau Ubin, including Chek Jawa, are protected as a Marine Reserve. This initiative aims to safeguard the rich biodiversity and interconnected ecosystems, ensuring that these natural treasures are preserved for generations to come.

Biodiversity

Chek Jawa is a biodiversity hotspot, boasting a variety of ecosystems such as mangroves, coastal forests, and seagrass lagoons. As you stroll along the boardwalk, educational panels provide fascinating insights into the unique flora and fauna that call this area home. It's a nature lover's paradise, offering a glimpse into the vibrant life of Singapore's wetlands.

Historical Significance

Pulau Ubin, the island home to Chek Jawa, is steeped in cultural and historical significance. Once a bustling granite quarrying site, the island retains its rustic charm and heritage. Exploring Pulau Ubin offers a journey back in time, where you can experience the island's rich history and natural beauty.

Sustainable Design

The infrastructure at Chek Jawa, including the boardwalk, jetty, and viewing tower, is crafted from durable aluminum to withstand the wetland's harsh conditions. This sustainable design not only ensures the longevity of the facilities but also minimizes environmental impact, allowing visitors to enjoy the natural beauty of Chek Jawa responsibly.
