Picnics And Kite Flying At Marina Barrage In Singapore
Marina Barrage
Not just a pretty face, Marina Barrage screams “uniquely Singapore” by melding beauty and functionality in our ever-improving Lion City. Besides creating a new source of fresh water on a purpose-built dam spanning the Channel, Marina Barrage combines an awesome lifestyle recreation center for watersports like windsurfing and kayaking with an upper lawn that serves as a lazy Sunday kite surfing, picnic destination as well as a “green” insulator for its buildings below.
When the rising sun makes the upper deck too-hot-to-trot, head down to the Central Courtyard, where dancing fountains entice the fam to run around and play!
Take in downtown’s panoramic cityscape atop the 350-meter long dam by guided tour. Or check out Singapore’s history of environmentally sustainable projects at the Sustainable Singapore Gallery.
Why Little Steps Loves It:
Eco-conscious learn/play facility doubling as a functional dam, creating a new source of fresh water for thirsty Singapore.
Who It's Perfect For:
Environmental-paparazzi, kite runners, picnickers and water sport adventurists.
What Else:
Fun fact: Marina Barrage’s Solar Park is the largest generator of solar energy in Singapore with over 400 solar panels to power the energy in Marina Barrage’s shops and buildings!
