The S$70 million Sentosa Boardwalk was officially opened on 29 January 2011. It has been almost a year since it's opening but it was only until last week that I had the opportunity to visit this beautiful boardwalk linking Sentosa to the mainland.
The 545m (I believe it's more than that; can anyone advice the exact length?) boardwalk features five tropical landscape themes indigenous to Singapore.
They are:
- Mangrove
- Rock Garden
- Terrain & Hill
- Coastal Floral
- Tropical Rainforest
A scenic view before our walk
Theme One: Mangrove
Do not be put off by the 0.5km walk as the boardwalk is coupled with travelators. There are benches, F&B outlets and viewing deck along the way for you to rest your feet and to check out the scenery.

Directory
There are five ways to gain entry into Sentosa: Cable Car ($24 two way); Driving (up to $7 on weekends); Sentosa Rider ($5 one way from the city); Sentosa Express ($3 from Vivocity); Sentosa Boardwalk ($1)
The Sentosa Boardwalk is by far the latest and cheapest option to enter Sentosa.
