Generally just being out on the boat. It was really relaxing and refreshing to see another side of Singapore.
Also, one of our friends brought homemade pistachio-chocolate chip-sea salt cookies!
The seaweed that brushed up against me when I fell.
I wish I had taken more photos!
August — The water was pretty calm, there was no lightning and not much haze.
A $20 Grab taxi ride from home to the Marina Country Club at Punggol.
Get out on the water!
Boating, wakeboarding, watersports, sports
Joe’s homemade cookies
A cooler filled with water, beer… A smartphone or something to play music. Sunscreen. Sunglasses. A towel and change of clothes for when you finish. A dry bag is handy for electronics and cash.
Sometimes you have to use your imagination to think up ‘new’ things to do in Singapore, otherwise eating, drinking and shopping can take over. I had been wanting to try wake boarding in Singapore for a while, but didn’t get around to organising it on my own, and last year the automated cable park shut down, making a boat hire a must. I joined friends who regularly do it, so I didn’t have to do any of the research myself. We met at Pier 4 at the Marina Country Club in Punggol, met our driver for the afternoon and wasted no time heading out on the water.

It’s a dealbreaker when
Fatty meat. It’s a weird one, but it’s true and it makes enjoying meat around Asia a bit of a challenge. So if I ever recommend restaurants, you can bet I ate nice, lean, tasty meat there!
Continent I know the best
