Aaah! Sentosa Island, The State of Fun, as they call it! A place where thrills and exciting adventures never end! A place that, frankly, I had never heard of until the moment I started planning a six-day family trip to Singapore. As I browsed through various blogs, websites, and travel forums, Sentosa Island in Singapore just kept coming up. Naturally, my curiosity got the better of me, and I started searching for more information to see what the fuss was all about.
Sentosa Island, The State of Fun
Located only about a quarter mile off the Southern Coast of Singapore, Sentosa Island is basically one giant amusement park. It’s where you find Universal Studios Singapore, Adventure Cove Waterpark, S.E.A. Aquarium, Madame Tussaud’s Singapore, zip lining, bungee jumping, golf, and much…much more. Considering that all this happens only within 1.9 square miles, Sentosa is literally jam-packed with fun and games. As a family traveling with kids, we felt a visit there was in order, and so we planned to spend a day discovering the State of Fun.
Where to Stay: You can choose to stay on Sentosa Island in Singapore, which is convenient if you would like to spend more than one day there. Our personal top-choice hotel on the island is Capella Singapore. A couple of other nice and less pricey options are Village Hotel Sentosa and Sofitel Singapore Sentosa Resort & Spa. If you would rather stay at Resorts World, near all the action, check out the Equarius Hotel or Hotel Michael. We always use Booking.com to book accommodations. It’s our favorite website for finding great places all over the world!

Getting to Sentosa Island
Getting to Sentosa Island from Singapore is not complicated. First, make your way to the HarbourFront Centre, then cross over to the island…It’s as simple as that!
Arrive at the HarbourFront Centre in Singapore
The HarbourFront Centre is basically a shopping mall, but also a ferry terminal. This is the point from which you can go across to Sentosa Island. So, arriving here should be your first goal.

Take a Grab Car There
Perhaps the simplest and most convenient way to get to the HarbourFront Centre is by taking a Grab car, which is the Asian version of Uber. If you happen to have an unlocked mobile phone equipped with a local SIM card, just download the Grab app and find your ride. Then select HarbourFront Centre or Singapore Cable Car if you are planning on taking the cable car (gondola) across to the island. This is exactly what we did, and it worked out perfectly! Our Grab driver picked us up at our hotel and drove us straight to the cable car entrance. You can actually get a ride all the way to the island itself, but it will cost you more, and you will miss out on some of the fun getting there.
Use the MRT
Taking the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit), which is the Singapore subway, is another way to get to the HarbourFront Centre. Depending on where you’re staying in the city, you may need to transfer and ride a couple different trains. Remember that your goal is to get off at the HarbourFront Station, and both the North East Line and the Circle Line of the MRT stop there.

Cross Over to Sentosa Island
Once at HarbourFront Centre, you will have to decide how to get over to Sentosa Island. There are basically three different options: You can walk across on the Sentosa Boardwalk, take the Sentosa Express Monorail, or arrive on the Singapore Cable Car.
Sentosa Boardwalk
If you want to get to the island for free, by engaging your leg muscles, your best bet is the Sentosa Boardwalk. From the HarbourFront Centre, head towards the waterfront promenade at VivoCity Shopping Mall, which is connected to the Centre. At the promenade, you will find the start of the boardwalk; then all you have to do is follow it to the island.
Sentosa Express Monorail
Another way to get to the island is by taking the Sentosa Express Monorail. This option will cost you only a few extra dollars. You can use the monorail to move around the island and return back, all for one low price of S$4 per person (as of July 2019). To get to the Sentosa Express Monorail, enter the VivoCity Shopping Mall from HarbourFront Centre, and follow the signs up to the 3rd Level. Once there, go to Lobby L, then purchase your Sentosa Pass from the ticketing booths. At this point, you are all set and ready to ride the monorail across.
Sentosa Express Monorail Train
Singapore Cable Car
Without question, the most scenic way to reach the island is by taking the Singapore Cable Car. This is a modern, eight-person gondola that offers sweeping views of Sentosa and Singapore’s skyline.
To get to the Singapore Cable Car, either take a Grab car there, or follow the signs to HarbourFront Tower II from the HarbourFront Center. Purchase your tickets, then take the elevator to the top of the tower, and enjoy your ride. I should mention that the Singapore Cable Car consists of two separate lines. One is the Mount Faber Line, which takes you across to Sentosa; the other one is the Sentosa Line, which only operates on the island. There are various packages you can purchase depending on whether you want to ride only one or both lines.

Our Day on Sentosa Island
Our one-day adventure to Sentosa Island began later than planned due to a heavy downpour. It was the end of July, when rainy days are not uncommon in Singapore. Despite this mild setback, we got a Grab Car and headed towards the Singapore Cable Car as soon as the rain eased off a little. Our Grab driver arrived quickly, and before long we were standing in line at the Cable Car entrance waiting to get our tickets.
Plan Ahead
As a side note here, I have to say that planning what to do while on Sentosa Island was probably the most challenging task of all. With so many rides and attractions and only one day to spare, it can be quite overwhelming trying to decide which ones to choose. After looking at all the options, I selected some activities that to me sounded a bit more unique. Yeah, sure – Universal Studios is an amusement park staple, but it’s also a place we can visit back home in the US. Massive waterparks are not hard to come by where we live either. Following that brilliant train of thought, I put together the itinerary for the day, and it all worked out great in the end.
Singapore Cable Car, Mount Faber Line
Once we had our tickets in hand, the fun began with an amazing ride on the Mount Faber Line of the Singapore Cable Car, which gave us a bird’s eye view of the whole area . Behind us, we could see the impressive Singapore skyline, and in front of us was lush green Sentosa with its myriad of attractions and castle-like resorts. It was a fantastic experience that we recommend very highly if you are planning a day to the island.

Skyline Luge Sentosa
Conveniently, the Cable Car took us right near our first planned activity for the day, a ride on Skyline Luge Sentosa. This is a fun attraction where visitors get to drive small Luge carts along four different tracks. Then they can take one of the two scenic chairlifts back up and do it all over again.
The ticketing counter at Skyline Luge Sentosa
When we got off the Cable Car, the rain stopped, and we were excited to experience some thrills without getting soaked. We walked over to the entrance and got the family package. It included four Luge rides and four Skyline rides each. After we got our tickets, all of us selected helmets from a large bin, then went to the starting point. There, the staff gave us quick instructions on how to navigate the Luge carts, and before we knew it, we were flying down one of the tracks.

From a Student Driver to a Pro
We didn’t start out as the most skilled Luge Cart drivers, but everyone in the family looked like a pro by the final run. After each Luge ride, we took the Skyline chairlift back up, which gave us a chance to enjoy the beautiful views of Sentosa and refocus for another round of wild driving.

Mega Adventure Park
After we completed successfully our four rounds of Luge and Skyline fun, we headed over to the next attraction on our itinerary, Mega Adventure Park. This is an attraction that offers four different activities: a high ropes course (MegaClimb), a high jump (MegaJump), zip lining (MegaZip), and bungee-assisted trampoline jumping (MegaBounce).
It didn’t take us long to get to Mega Adventure Park since it’s located only a short walk away from the Skyline Luge. Nevertheless, we had worked up a bit of a sweat by the time we made our way there since the sun had come out and the temperatures were soaring.

Dani getting ready for the adventure
MegaClimb
As soon as we arrived and got our tickets, the staff hooked us up with harnesses, then took us to the first activity, the MegaClimb. This was a three-level high ropes course that looked like a super fun challenge. As the staff explained it, the easiest level was the lowest, the second level was the hardest, the third level was the highest. Without wasting any time, our younger daughter, Dani, started making her way through Level 1, the easiest (…not easy at all by the way), and hubby with our first-born, Angie, tackled Level 2, the hardest. I stayed behind because, you know, someone has to be responsible and take a thousand photos!

Slowly but surely, everyone completed their respective course successfully. They were all very proud and fully drenched in sweat from the heat and all the hard work. The kids were ready to go for another round immediately, but the time was ticking and we had to move onto the next thrill, zip lining.

MegaJump
As a side note, the next logical activity to try would have been the MegaJump, a free-fall simulated 15-meter jump. However, in the interest of time, we moved onto zip lining. Honestly, as hubby and I watched others drop and happily survive, we were very much considering giving it a try. It did seem like a lot of fun!
MegaZip
All of us got up to the MegaZip platform, and were immediately astounded by the view that emerged before our eyes. We were about to zip line over treetops, Siloso Beach, and then arrive at the opposite station on a teeny island.

Everyone was excited to start zipping, but first, Dani had to be hooked up to hubby since she is light as a feather. Once she was secured, all of us lined up and off we went. It was a short but super fun flight, over the trees, over the beach, then onto the little island. Without question, this was one experience we would gladly repeat over and over again next time we are on Sentosa!

Onto Siloso Beach
When we arrived at the opposite platform, we stopped to look at the ocean views for a few minutes. Then all of us walked across a narrow bridge from the tiny island to Siloso Beach. There, we found the trampolines and bungee cords for the MegaBounce, and just like that, the kids forgot they were getting hungry, thirsty, itchy, and tired!
MegaBounce
Bouncing on trampolines while attached to bungee cords is one of our daughters’ favorite activities, so they couldn’t wait to get on the MegaBounce. The staff removed their harnesses only to replace them with new ones, better suited for this particular activity. Once everything was tightened in place, the fun began. Meanwhile, hubby and I stood on the side and watched…And one of us took a gazillion pictures. (Ahem!) I don’t know where Angie and Dani found the energy, but they sure bounced like merry kangaroos until the last minute.

When it was all over, we thanked the friendly staff at Mega Adventure Park for this outstanding adrenaline-packed adventure. Then we walked over to get some lunch at the nearby restaurant, Trapizza. We definitely needed to replenish some of our sugar and energy after living life to the fullest.
Lunch on the Beach at Trapizza
Trapizza was the closest restaurant near Mega Adventure Park on Siloso Beach, and it turned out to be a lovely place. Not only was it right on the beach, but also offered the kids’ favorites, pasta and pizza. We ordered just that and thoroughly enjoyed our lunch under a large shady canopy.

Fort Siloso Skywalk
When we were all refreshed and refueled, it was time to proceed according to plan. So, we walked over to the next point of interest, Fort Siloso Skywalk, which was nearby. This is an elevated trail, approximately 11-story high, that takes visitors above the treetops. At the top, there are incredible views of the surrounding area. The trail leads to the historic Fort Siloso, which is currently a military museum, completely free of charge.
Here is the Fort Siloso Skywalk Tower, you can’t miss it
To get to the Skywalk, we made our way to the entrance tower and took the elevator to the top. Of course, there is also an option to take the stairs, but we were still full from lunch and not quite up to this kind of heroic act. Once up there, we discovered incredible panoramas of Sentosa and Singapore’s modern skyline. The pleasant breeze coming from the ocean revived our senses, which resulted in our kids running up and down the Skywalk, making a good amount of jolly clatter.

After we spent some time admiring the views from Fort Siloso Skywalk, we had to keep moving. Unfortunately, there wasn’t enough time for us to visit the actual fort, but if you enjoy history, definitely check it out.
Singapore Cable Car, Sentosa Line
The next attraction on our itinerary for the day was the Trick Eye Museum. To get there, we took the Sentosa Line of the Singapore Cable Car from Siloso Point Station. Conveniently, this station is located right across the street from Fort Siloso Skywalk, so our kids didn’t get to complain that their feet were hurting from too much walking.
Riding the Sentosa Line of the Singapore Cable Car
The ride on the Cable Car was truly awesome; the beaches, the island, the Singapore skyline, we could see it all! After some time, our cabin slowed down as it arrived to Imbiah Lookout Station, the midpoint of the Sentosa Line. Luckily, we knew exactly what we were doing, so we didn’t get off like some confused tourists would. Instead, we continued on until the Merlion Station at the end of the Sentosa Line.
Sentosa Merlion and Resorts World
We got off the Cable Car and started looking for signs to point us towards the Trick Eye Museum. It turned out that we weren’t as close to it as we imagined. In fact, we quickly learned that we would need to take the Sentosa Monorail Express to Resorts World, which was one stop away.
Sentosa Merlion
As we headed towards the monorail station, we spotted the Sentosa Merlion statue nearby. Although we hadn’t planned to go inside, we had to stop for a few minutes and check it out up close.
Here it is, in all its glory, the Sentosa Merlion statue
In case you are not familiar, the Merlion is the symbol of Singapore, a creature that has the head of a lion and the body of a fish (or mermaid). Therefore, it’s a mermaid-lion…a Merlion. You may have heard that Singapore is known as “The Lion City”…Well, this is the reason why!
Currently, there are a total of seven Merlion statues around Singapore. The one on Sentosa Island is the largest, rising 37 meters (about 121 feet). It’s also the only one where visitors can go inside and climb up to the top, then enjoy the views from the Merlion’s head and mouth. If you have the time, this is definitely a fun activity to do with the family. Who doesn’t want to get inside a lion’s mouth…better yet, a Merlion’s mouth!
UPDATE: Sadly, the iconic Merlion on Sentosa Island in Singapore will be demolished sometime after October 20, 2019, which is the last date of admission. At the moment, there are no specific plans as to where it will be relocated. We will definitely keep you posted.
Resorts World
After taking some photos of Singapore’s mascot, we continued on our way to Resorts World and the Trick Eye Museum. The Imbiah Station of the Sentosa Monorail Express was very close, so we hopped on a train that took us there in no time.
Walking near Lake of Dreams in Resorts World Sentosa
TIP: Once on Sentosa Island, you can ride the Sentosa Monorail Express for free.
It turned out the Trick Eye Museum was still a good walk away, but this was just as well. We got a chance to see many of the amazing sights at Resorts World, like the Universal Studios globe, the candy trees at Candylisious, and the pretty Lake of Dreams.

Trick Eye Museum
Eventually, we made our way to the Trick Eye Museum, which turned out to be a really delightful place to visit. It was also air conditioned, which gave us a chance to cool off after walking out in the Singapore heat!
Van Gogh’s Starry Night and I
The Trick Eye Museum offers a large collection of fun art installations that trick your eyes. They appear 3D when photographed from a certain angle. Conveniently, there are markings on the floor to point to the perfect spot to capture your Instagram masterpieces.
XR Museum App
Perhaps one of the most interesting features at the Trick Eye Museum is the App they suggest you download before starting your tour. It’s an augmented reality App that brings many of the exhibits to life. You can take photos and videos through the App and really impress your social media peeps!
TIP: To get the App in advance, search for “XR Museum” or “TrickEye Museum” in the Apple iTunes Store or Google Play Store. Once you download it, select the region of the museum you are visiting, then have fun. Click HERE for more information and instructions.
We all spent a long time playing around with the App and snapping all kinds of photos and videos. It was a ton of fun, and here are a few of the many photos to prove it. (Note: We didn’t take these pictures with the App…They are just good, old, regular photos.)

The Things We Wish We Had Seen
After we left the Trick Eye Museum, hubby and the kids began complaining loudly about being tired and hungry. So we stopped at the nearby Malaysian Food Street and filled up on tasty specialties from Singapore’s neighboring country.
By the time we finished dinner, it was getting late, and our kids became increasingly more cranky and grouchy. They were definitely starting to show classic signs of mood decline due to a long day of too much fun. There were still a couple more things on our Sentosa itinerary, but we had to let go of them. Since these are activities very much worth your time, I have to mention what they were. You can get to both of them by taking the Sentosa Monorail Express back from Resorts World Station and get off at the final Beach Station.
Palawan Island
The first attraction on my list of “things I would like to have seen” on Sentosa is Palawan Island. This is a tiny island off of Palawan Beach, which interestingly happens to represent the Southernmost Point of Continental Asia. It’s a beautiful place that you can easily visit by walking across a narrow suspension bridge from Palawan Beach. Arguably, this is one of the most picturesque spots on Sentosa Island, so definitely stop by if you can!
Wings of Time Show
The Wings of Time Show is the other planned attraction we didn’t get to experience. This is an impressive show of lights that happens every night on Siloso Beach. It combines impressive visual effects with a glorious soundtrack for the perfect end to a day on Sentosa Island.
TIP: For more details about the Wings of Time Show and to purchase tickets, click HERE.
Even though we missed this incredible spectacle, we enjoyed a beautiful sunset from the Singapore Cable Car on our way back.

Go to The State of Fun
As you can see, one day is hardly enough for Sentosa Island in Singapore. The fun attractions and activities that await there are countless, so plan as much as you can in advance. If you know what you want to do before you get there, you won’t spend your time wondering and wandering. Whatever you choose, your day on Sentosa will be an adventure, because this is The State of Fun! It’s a place where kids’ dreams turn into reality, and adults become kids once again!

IMPORTANT!!!
When traveling abroad, be sure that your passport is valid for at least 6 months AFTER your planned stay. There are many countries that follow this rule very strictly. If you show up to the airport with a passport that expires in less than 6 months, you will NOT be allowed to board your plane!

Thanks for sharing. I have been wondering what Sentosa Island looked like now. When I was there twelve years ago, the island was being redeveloped..
Woow, how interesting, Jennifer! Sentosa Island is quite a buzzing place these days. We had a great time visiting for sure! 😉
That looks like so much fun! Great pictures too, and really good directions on how to get to Sentosa!
Thanks so much, Dawn! It was an awesome day for sure! Sentosa Island was one of our kids’ favorite places on our entire trip to Southeast Asia! 🙂
My family would absolutely love this trip. What fun activities. And your pictures of Sentosa Island are amazing.
Thanks so much, Heather! 🙂 It was a great trip! I highly recommend Sentosa Island to everyone traveling with kids…or anyone who is a kid at heart! 😉
The views of Sentosa Island are amazing from the cable car, and zipline, and skywalk. You certainly packed a lot into your day. My family would love the Skyline Luge Sentosa and the Adventure Park. This summer we’ve really gotten into the adventure parks.
Thanks so much, Leeanne! Sentosa Island is definitely an awesome family destination. It’s one big adventure park surrounded by beaches and blue water! 😉
What a fantastic day! I spent a short 24 hours in Singapore years ago in between a trip to India and the Philippines and what I remember is how beautiful and CLEAN the city was. Plus how much there is to do! I’d love to get back.
Thanks, Pam! It really is an incredibly clean and modern place, and Sentosa Island is a lot of fun. You should see the new addition to the Changi Airport, the Jewel. It’s an incredible dome with a waterfall coming down from the ceiling and a tropical garden all around…Absolutely stunning! 😉
Sentosa Island in Singapore is the new spot added to the list! That first pic almost looks ripped out of concept art for the future. Definitely going to Mega Adventure Park. That’s right up my alley.
Thanks, Jamie! You are totally right! These modern buildings are actually luxury condos…pretty incredible. The architecture all over Singapore is awesome! We recommend visiting the country very highly, and Mega Adventure Park is definitely a MUST! 😉
The Trick Eye Museum on Sentosa Island in Singapore looks like so much fun! What an interesting concept for a museum. I think one of my girls would love to recreate the candy trees in her room! Looks like you really enjoyed your time there.
Thanks for stopping by, Susan! Yesss! The Trick Eye Museum was really cool, and we all had a great day. Sentosa Island in Singapore is a fun, FUN place! I wouldn’t mind going back there one bit! 🙂
Wow…just wow! Singapore wasn’t on my list but is now. Would love to check out that cable car and more. Great tips on how to navigate this beautiful and fun area!
Thank you so much! I am really happy to hear you found my directions helpful! 🙂 This was my goal, as the place may seem a bit overwhelming at first! I hope you visit Singapore! The entire country is lovely…so modern, safe, and clean…plenty of fun stuff to see and do…and eat! 🙂
There is so much to do on Sentosa Island! My kids would love the high ropes course, although they may not want to go all the way up. However, they would love the luge. I can see my husband racing them down the course.
Oh, you all would have a blast! We raced each other on the luge, too. The kids were not happy when it was time to leave. They definitely wanted to keep going! I hope you guys visit! It’s a great family destination! 🙂
Gorgeous images! I’m adding Singapore to my travel wishlist. Thanks!
Thank you so much, Shirley! You would enjoy it for sure! The whole country is amazing, so organized, and so clean! We had a wonderful time there! 🙂
I want to go to Sentosa Island in Singapore! What a fun place! I love all the pictures at the museum! So fun!
Thanks, Lisa! It’s totally worth it! You will have so much fun! The whole experience was great! 😉
What a great adventure! So many fun things to do on Sentosa Island in Singapore. I loved the zip lining and the cable car, but the Trick Eye Museum looks amazing!
Thanks so much for stopping by, Laura! We really had a great time…And YESSS! The Trick Eye Museum was awesome, so creative and fun! I highly recommend visiting Sentosa Island when in Singapore! One day is not enough to see everything, but it will allow you to get to know the place and enjoy plenty of good time! 😉
Sentosa Island looks fun. Not sure which month we will be heading to Singapore but most likely after January. I’ve heard that they had an island of amusement parks but didn’t know more than that. I’ve bookmarked your post. Looks like a great time!
Awww! Thanks, Wendy! Sentosa Island in Singapore is great for families! We had an amazing time and would gladly go back! Our goal was to check out as many fun attractions as possible instead of spending the entire day at Universal Studios! We are very happy with how it all turned out! You can consider spending more than a day there. I researched a bunch of hotels and added my favorites to the article. We considered staying overnight, but there is so much to see in the city, too…Whatever you decide, I am sure you will have a great time! Safe travels! 🙂
This looks like so much fun, and I had no idea Singapore had all of this. I’d particularly love to do the Zipline and the Wings of Time show. Bummer you couldn’t fit that one in, but it’s hard to always do everything planned.
Yesss, Jordan! I was totally looking forward to the Wings of Time Show. Unfortunately, the kids were too jet lagged and needed to sleep! Oh, well! We definitely have reasons to go back again! In the end, we did catch a beautiful sunset from the gondola, for which I am very grateful! 😉
I’ve never heard of Sentosa Island but looks amazing. You got incredible photos from the cable car.
Thanks, Arianny! It’s definitely a worthwhile place if you are planning a trip to Singapore! Out kids were thrilled of course! 🙂
I have heard great things about Singapore, but I had not heard of Sentosa Island. Great tips! Thanks!
Tricia, I hadn’t heard of it either until I started planning our days in Singapore! I am sure glad I learned about it! The entire country is fantastic, very safe, very clean…It’s a great place to visit for sure! 🙂
Sentosa Island in Singapore looks like so much fun! I think we could spend a week there and not get to everything it has to offer!
I think you might be right, Lori! It’s definitely packed with fun stuff to see and do! 😉
I love that you took the time to explain how to get to Sentosa Island from Singapore. I might have thought it was so remote, but you did a good job explaining.
Oh, thanks so much, Jen! I am very glad to hear you found my explanations helpful! Before we arrived there, I was wondering what would be the best way to get to Sentosa, so I figured, other people might be wondering the same! It’s really very easy. Singapore is such a well-organized and well-connected place! It’s great for tourists! I hope you visit sometime! 🙂
What a neat place! And the Trick Eye Museum is soooo great! Love the photos.
Thanks, Eva! We had so much fun and would LOVE to return! 😉
Awesome time!!! We would enjoy the ropes course, like a good challenge.
Thanks, Missy! Yesss! The ropes course was really fun…and definitely challenging from what the kids and hubby told me! They loved it! 😉
Sentosa Island in Singapore looks like such a fun family adventure destination. Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed all the pictures!
Thank you so much, Cynthia! It really is a great place to visit with the family! 🙂
Whoa! An Orlando in Asia! So cool you guys got to do all of these activities. The high ropes and zip lines look exhilarating. Always wanted to see Singapore, what a great day!
Thanks, Hera! Sentosa Island in Singapore was really like an exotic version of Orlando. 🙂 It was a great day for sure…so many fun activities! Our kids still talk about it pretty much every day! 🙂
Wow had no idea there was so much to do in Singapore.
Thanks for stopping by, Keagan…And this is only Sentosa Island in Singapore! The actual city has so much more to offer! It’s an amazing place to visit! 🙂
This looks awesome! So much to do, but I have to say I think the museum would have ranked as our top favorite! We love all the activities as well, but the museum looked extra unique!
Thanks, Michele! Sentosa Island in Singapore really was GREAT…And the museum was a ton of fun for sure! Not to mention, it was air conditioned, so it gave us a nice break from the heat. I can’t really pick a favorite, though! We loved it all! 🙂
