Siloso Beach - Singapore

Located in the Southwest part of Sentosa Island in Singapore, Siloso Beach is one of the three beautiful beaches of the island (no pun intended). It is also the largest of the three.

Siloso Beach Details

Siloso Beach is a white sand beach that stretches almost a kilometer. It is perfect for outdoor activities like beach volleyball and the sandcastle building.

Visitors can also swim in the waters but there are some things that might pose a risk to the health of those who do like oil from ships, broken glass, and even jellyfishes.

Welcome to Siloso Beach

Siloso Beach is surprisingly clean

These foreigners enjoyed a stroll at high noon

Check out those islets

Siloso Beach is beachfront of Shangri-La's Rasa Sentosa Resort. It is also a few meters walk from the Siloso Point Station of the Sentosa Cable Car Line and the Fort Siloso Sky Walk

The Rasa Sentosa Resort is nearest the beach

Look who passed by... It's Mrs. Peacock

There are three C-shaped islets that front the beachhead. One of these serves as the endpoint of the zipline of Mega Adventure. These islets protect the beach from the waves and currents that tend to bring in trash and oil to the beach.

I got to visit Siloso Beach with my family during our 2017 Singapore-Malaysia Tour. We went there not to swim nor do the mentioned outdoor activities but to take a nap (and of course go sightseeing). Yup, that's right! Funny as it may sound, we arrived at Siloso Beach at noon and my 4-year old daughter was tired from walking from touring. 

The panoramic view of Siloso Beach

Lucky for us, there was a "hidden" area at the westernmost part of the beach. This place has a bench facing the cargo ships docked sea and behind it was a beautiful panoramic view of Siloso Beach. The shade of the trees and the cool breeze of the sea sure does help us relax when we were there. 

Special thanks to the bench in the "secret spot" hahaha

Overall, given a chance, I would want to take my daughter for a dip in the calm waters of Siloso Beach. I know my daughter would love that experience. Plus, it's one of the few good beaches of Singapore so it's a must-try.

  4. Siloso Beach is such a summer destination... Peacocks are even freely roaming there!

    I got your point, beach isn't only for swimming. Even me, I love to go to the beach just to unwind, enjoy the views and nature.

      However, you can still swim (at your own risk).

  5. I've always thought Singapore is nothing but cities. I never knew about this beach until now. At least there's a place to breathe by the sea even in a landlocked city.

  6. The description of Siloso beach reminds me of Neil island in Andaman and Nicobar islands of India. I guess a blogger has done a good job if the blog makes the reader nostalgic and remember good times! Thanks for sharing!
