Outdoor Adventure

Sungei buloh is a fabulous nature reserve. A place where if you heighten your senses, you can see a lot of creatures that lives amongst us in their natural habitat in one of the last mangrove swamps in Singapore. 

We heard so much about it from the news, pictures that was posted by friends on FB and decided to bring the kids out on an outdoor adventure of a different kind. It was quite a long car ride from our place, and I would say that it wasn’t very accessible if you are travelling by public transport.  


The kids were pretty much excited about the trip when we set off but when we finally arrived, they were worried about how it will turn out. Given the fact that it is a nature reserve, and you will be expecting to see insects, worms, birds or even a chance to see the well-known crocodile that reside there.

We started walking around the area and managed to see a crocodile in the water, heron, monitor lizard, mud crabs, mud lobster beds, fishes, bats, spiders and webs... the kids were happy to feel the nature but it was the hot weather that they are not happy about. Well, it is after all summer and it’s outdoor right!


After an hour or so exploring this beautiful place, we decided to call it a day as it was too hot for the kids to carry on the walk. This is one good place to visit if you are looking for something different from the normal activities and outings with the family.
