The 2.2 km Changi Boardwalk

A free, well-lit coastal walk in six sections, starting at the Changi Point Ferry Terminal and ending at the western end of Changi Point. Section lengths and details below are from the official NParks guide.

Creek Walk

280 m

The start of the boardwalk, at the Changi Ferry Terminal. Watch bumboats to Pulau Ubin and, at low tide, sea stars and crabs. You can spot the Civil Service Club's Changi Clubhouse in a conservation bungalow built before the 1927 British survey.

Beach Walk

660 m

Runs beside the beach with picturesque coastline views — the most leisurely stretch.

Sailing Point Walk

600 m

Open sea views and watching sailboats go by, with yachts at anchor. The Changi Sailing Club (founded 1936 as the Changi Garrison Yacht Club by British Royal Engineers) is visible from here.

Cliff Walk

280 m

A shady, lush stretch following the land's contours, with old trees and boulders left untouched and viewing decks for panoramic views.

Kelong Walk

200 m

Extends into the sea on kelong-like stilts, reminiscent of the old kelong (stilt-fishing-platform) days. The Changi Beach Club is visible onshore.

Sunset Walk

120 m

The end of the boardwalk — splendid sunset views at the western end of Changi Point, backed by huge boulders. Lit in the evening; you can see the lights of the Punggol housing estate across the water.

Frequently asked questions

Can I camp at Changi Beach Park?

No. Camping and tents are not allowed at Changi Beach Park or the Changi Boardwalk. For camping near the area, Pulau Ubin has designated campsites where camping (including open-fire cooking at the campfire area) is permitted.

Is the boardwalk safe at night?

Yes — the 2.2 km Changi Boardwalk is well-lit at night, and the Sunset Walk section is specifically designed for evening use. As with any coastal walk, use common sense, stay on the boardwalk, and go with a friend after dark. Note: estuarine crocodiles are known to swim in the Straits of Johor — heed NParks' wildlife precautions.

Can I cycle the boardwalk?

The boardwalk itself is for walking. Cyclists should use the Eastern Coastal Loop and Round Island Route park connectors that pass through the area — Changi Beach Park and the boardwalk sit on both. Bring or rent a bike to ride the coastal park connectors instead.

Are there toilets and food nearby?

Amenities (fitness equipment, dining, children's play areas) are available at Changi Beach Park. For a proper meal, walk to the Changi Village Food Centre at the boardwalk's start — famous for nasi lemak and hawker classics.

What is the section between Cliff Walk and Creek Walk closure?

NParks periodically closes short sections of the boardwalk for repairs. Check the NParks notices page before you visit; alternative walking routes (via Cranwell Road and Netheravon Road) are always available.
