Yishun Dam - Last Fishing Village - Punggol Walk

Meet: Khatib MRT station (NS14)
When: Sunday 5th October, 4:30 pm**

**This is a Rain or Shine event. Please take a good lunch or bring along some snacks if you feel hungry along the way. Our walks are usually between 8 - 12 km long. Just so you know, the weather may be hot but as the sun sets, the weather should be cooler.

Please be punctual. You are encouraged to be slightly early to avoid disappointments. There will be 5 minutes grace for attendance taking. Please remember that we cannot wait because this would be unfair to those already present.

We shall start our journey at Yishum Dam. Yishun Dam – a.k.a. Seletar Dam – separates the freshwater of Lower Seletar Reservoir from the saltwater in the Johore Strait – you know, as dams do. But that doesn’t stop it from being a popular destination for romantic getaways, especially during sunset.

Next, we will explore the areas around the Jenal Jetty, the last fishing village in Singapore! Just so you know, Jenal Jetty is private property so we won't be going into the Jetty itself. But we shall explore the beach areas where we can catch a nice view of the Jetty from afar.

Finally, we continue our walk into two islands - Pulau Punggol Barat and Pulau Punggol Timor as we head onward towards Punggol.

We will end by having dinner together around the Punggol area.

Please keep in mind that I may not respond to messages sent after the walk starts because I will be busy helping the attendees and leading the walk.

Please be sure to RSVP responsibly to help those who are on the waitlist get the chance to come for the walks.

You should confirm your RSVPs the day before the event to allow those on the waitlist time to schedule for the event.

I may, at my discretion, place you in the waitlist so that others can join my walks.
