Go wild on your own!
It's the beginning of a new year and there are few organised activities in our wild places. But you can always explore them on your own! Great destinations include Pulau Ubin and a wide range of seashores, mangroves and forest destinations. Lots of info for visitors is available on wildsingapore with tips on how to prepare for a trip, how to get there and what to see and do.
