changi boardwalk

i'm a regular visitor to changi, because i have to take the bumboat to Pengerang at least once a year. But oddly, i didn't realise the surroundings changed over the years. Except for the relocation of the old jetty to few meters towards the creek's mouth.

besides the boardwalk, i covered certain sites in changi point (from URA's map and guide to Changi Point). From Changi Village, i walked along Netheravon Road, then turned into Cranwell Road. Started the boardwalk from Kelong Walk, where Changi Beach Club is.

the boardwalk is divided into few parts, namely the Sunset Walk, Kelong Walk, Cliff Walk, Sailing Point Walk, Beach Walk and Creek Walk. Creek Walk is where Changi Village is.

sinister place for photography
i was using my camera at Chalet K, the one below Old Changi Hospital. Suddenly it went black. Had a ominous feeling. No choice but to use my pda camera from there onwards...

Algae bitten sign


Another tree, this is huge.


TALL AND HUGE!


Turned into Cranwell Road, Changi Beach Club


Entering the Boardwalk via Cranwell Road...


Kelong Walk - many people fishing here


What's that? Rocks, and a warning structure


Going to the extreme end, Sunset Walk


Done with Sunset and Kelong Walk, now to Cliff Walk


Cliff Walk, quite dark here


The sign found throughout the walk


This is like a room, but with a registration plate. What's this?


Nothing much in Cliff Walk. Next stop, Sailing Point Walk


Huge rock! Good to take pictures...


Sailing Point Walk


As the name implies, lots of sailing vehicles and such. This is Changi Sailing Club.


Private jetty for Club members


I think it's between SP Walk and Beach Walk


The fishing area is forbidden. How did the 2 get in?


After a long stretch of sand, i'm at the Creek Walk. Ubin boats coming back...


Opposite is Changi beach...


Another boat...


Changi Ferry Terminal


The old ferry terminal...


Now the old terminal is gone...

went for dinner at the hawker centre. Good place for meals, but need private transport. Otherwise quite difficult to reach.
