Being a garden city, there are many parks and gardens in this country. The biggest park in Singapore is a linear park called East Coast Park. This park is situated along the beach, facing the eastern side of Singapore. There are all kinds of sea sports activities available in this park. Every Sunday, people gather at the Sea Sports Club to kayak, water ski, sail, and some even form a group to engage in dragon boat activities.
Vacation packages seldom include places like East Coast Park. It is a great place for holiday makers, it is also the park with the greatest number of visitors in Singapore. There are chalets available for stay. The vacation package for these chalets comes in the form of three days and two nights for a price of one hundred and fifty dollars. For people who would like to enjoy the seaside, we can bring our own camping equipment and pitch our tent just beside the sea.
This park is very popular for being a great place for barbeque. With its fantastic location by the sea, most barbeque pits installed in the park enjoy a sea view. It is a favorite activity for many people during weekends and public holidays. People staying in the chalets can also rent barbeque pits for a small cost, so that they can barbeque in front of their hut.
There are also a lot of restaurants at East Coast Park. Besides the famous black pepper crab, the yummy seafood, steaks and pastas, Chinese cuisine as well as Japanese food are also available in the Park. There are cheap local fares at one part of the Park as well.
