7 activities to do with 7 other friends during Phase 3

It’s been 3 weeks since we began Phase 3. We can now mingle in groups of eight and no longer have to be stuck in long queues waiting to dine in since food establishments can occupy more customers now. Yay!


But besides the regular dinner with friends and loved ones, here are 7 things which you can do with 7 other friends (or less, if you’re like me with just... 4 friends in your social circle).


It’s time to unleash your best moves in 4 different zones at the world’s first Nerf arena at Marina Square!


If you’re looking for a team bonding session with your workmates, Nerf Action Xperience would be perfect as the different zones would require you and your teammates to work together to complete a challenge or even fight zombies!


Psst… this is also an opportunity for you to shoot your bosses! 😜 


You can even use up your SingapoRediscover vouchers for this Nerf Action Xperience!


Spanning across four storeys, Adventure HQ @ HomeTeamNS Khatib features 10 kaleidoscopic adventure installations for you thrill seekers out there!



You can find 24 interactive climbing elements, a Ninja course which helps to improve your strength, endurance, coordination and agility, and even a fireman’s slide at a record high of 14 metres high! What’s more, you can also explore a man-made cave which is 165 metres long at Fossil Labyrinth. 


You wouldn’t want to give this adrenaline-rushing indoor playground a miss, so remember to bring your flatmates along for some fun!


If high-elements and the great outdoors are your thing, then buckle up and get ready for your next expedition at Forest Adventure!


Get ready for a fun-filled experience that will last for as long as 2.5 hours on the treetops, spanning across 44 adrenaline pumping obstacles, including 3 giant zip lines across the waters of Bedok Reservoir!


In this course, you’ll be equipped with a harness and have to go through a 20 minutes safety briefing. After that, you are free to swing as you like! 🧗‍♀️


Similar to Forest Adventure, Mega Adventure is also for adrenaline junkies. There are 3 different courses for you to choose from, namely MegaClimb, MegaZip and MegaBounce.


Get ready for a total of 36 obstacles on 3 levels in Singapore’s premier treetop adventure course. End it with a bang by completing a zipline which is 450 metres long from the top if Imbiah Hill, all the way to the Siloso beach below.


And yes, you can spend your SingapoRediscover vouchers here!


Love soaking up in the water? Why not dive down to Sentosa for Hydrodash? 💦


Challenge your flatmates and friends in Singapore’s very first floating aqua park! You’ll have lots of fun leaping, jumping, sliding, climbing and bouncing its inflatable playground. 


This attraction is also eligible for SingapoRediscover vouchers!


If you’re afraid of high-elements and not really an outdoor person, don’t worry, we do have some activities for you too.


With a total of 9 different intriguing levels to challenge your mental and physical strengths, Amazing Castle is an interactive game centre that allows friends to bond together over fun games!


Each of the 9 levels will require different intellectual and physical intensity to complete, so both brains and brawn are equally important in this game!


Head down to Bugis+ to experience this fun-filled adventure.


If you feel like breaking out from your organised everyday life, Splat Paint House is where you want to be.


A space dedicated to mess, to expression and to play, you are free to express any way you like thorough splat painting!


All you have to do is grab a canvas, some paint and get as messy as you want! There are no rules, just create!


So go ahead, let loose and have some fun!


We hope that you’ll have more fun now that we’ve entered Phase 3, but do remember to have all the fun responsibly during this time. Maintain social distancing, remove your mask only when you’re eating, drinking or doing strenuous activities and sanitise your hands regularly!

7 nature spots to kick off the new year

More than just a concrete jungle, careful preservation of the island’s rich ecology has left patches of nature untouched in Singapore. Perfect for a morning walk or weekend hike, here are our top 7 nature spots in Singapore.

Kranji Marshes are a stretch of wetland filled with cattails and home to species of woodpeckers, monitor lizards and sea eagles. The Raptor Tower gives visitors a bird-eye view of the marsh, and a floating boardwalk lets you explore deep into the wetlands without stepping into the water.


Unique to Singapore, the mangrove wetland is traversable only by a boardwalk, helmed by the interlocking roots of mangrove trees. Found where freshwater rivers meet the sea, aquatic life, including the occasional alligator, are in plentiful supply.


Found over the ‘’green lungs of Singapore”, our central nature reserves, the Macritchie Trail is a great trekking spot to enjoy both flora and fauna.


At the end of your trail, you can stay to experience a rare quiet in Singapore in a wild, overgrown reserve popular among cyclists and joggers. Wild monkeys have made the reservoir their home and are unafraid of visitors, using their wits to steal food from unsuspecting families.



Singapore’s favourite beach, this coastal park has a trail perfect for biking, jogging or skating, with rental shops available along the seafront. Campsites, bbq pits, playgrounds, volleyball pits and other areas designed for outdoor activities make this a perfect place to spend the weekend.


Largely untouched by development, the island is one of the last rough-around-the-edges pieces of land left in Singapore. Patches of it remain unexplored, and you’ll find secret beaches, abandoned playground and dilapidated villas surrounded by beautiful wetlands.


Now an abandoned quarry, Bukit Batok Nature Park has distinctive rock formations that are natural works of art in their own right. The site of major battles during World War 2, memorials and plaques throughout the park are dedicated to those who fell in the war.



Singapore doesn’t have mountains, but we do have a single hill — Bukit Timah . A favourite among hikers, the reserve is home to one of the most abundant ecosystems of flora and fauna left in Singapore.


Before you head off on your adventure, ensure that you're all geared up for the occasion!  Use this easy to-bring list as a guide:
