East Coast Park

East Coast Park is Singapore's largest park, stretching 15 kilometres along the southeastern coastline from Marina East to Bedok. Built on reclaimed land and opened in the 1970s, the 185-hectare park is managed by the National Parks Board. It is notable for its beachfront, extensive cycling and jogging tracks, barbecue pits, and recreational facilities, serving as a major seaside leisure destination for residents and visitors.

Visitors can expect a long, linear coastal park with a sandy beach, paved promenade and cycling track running parallel to the sea. The park features open lawns, casuarina trees, lagoons, jetties including Bedok Jetty, playgrounds, fitness corners, and food centres such as East Coast Lagoon Food Village. Areas for barbecuing, camping, cycling, inline skating, fishing and water sports are available, with views of the Singapore Strait and passing ships.

East Coast Park was developed on land reclaimed from the sea in the 1970s as part of Singapore's East Coast Reclamation Scheme. The park was progressively opened from the late 1970s and developed by the Housing and Development Board and later managed by the National Parks Board, becoming Singapore's largest and most visited park.

The park is a central recreational and social space for Singaporeans, widely used for family gatherings, barbecues, camping, cycling and community events, reflecting Singapore's coastal leisure culture.
