Fodor's Expert Review Changi Beach Park

One of Singapore's oldest and quietest coastal parks, Changi Beach is a two-mile stretch of sand dotted with coconut trees and public barbecue pits. Although its tranquility belies its dark history—this was one of the main sites of the Sook Ching massacre during the Japanese Occupation—today the area is a popular spot for couples as well as fishing and photography enthusiasts. Amenities: food and drink; toilets. Best for: solitude; swimming; walking.
