Siloso Beach

Sentosa's liveliest stretch of sand, Siloso Beach is free to enter and easy to spend a whole day at — swim in the lagoon, build sandcastles, or play a pick-up game of beach volleyball or soccer. It's also the jumping-off point for many of the island's paid adventure activities (MegaZip, HyperDrive, Nestopia, Skyline Luge, Wings of Time) if you want to mix things up.

On Friday, weekend and public holiday evenings, head down between 7.30pm and 10.30pm for Magical Shores — a free beach light-and-sound show with interactive elements. Beachfront restaurants and bars line the promenade for when hunger strikes.
