On the Water · tickets from Singapore Canoe Federation
Duration
1 hour
The take
Still water with forest down to the edge and macaques along the bank. With no sea breeze it gets warm, so go early. The Singapore Canoe Federation runs the Paddle Lodge, and a single sit-on-top is the easy pick for a first hour.
Good to know
Sit-on-top kayak and buoyancy vest from the Singapore Canoe Federation's Paddle Lodge
Single S$18 an hour, double S$27 an hour
Book ahead, since walk-ins get turned away when school races take the water
Closed-deck kayaks need a 1-Star certificate
Finding it: The Paddle Lodge, MacRitchie Reservoir Park, about 5 minutes' walk from the reservoir carpark off Lornie Road
