The take
Singapore's only natural hot spring, in a free park up north where the water comes up hot from underground and you sit by the pools to soak your feet. It's outdoor and rustic. Go on a weekday morning to miss the weekend queue.

The cascading foot-bath pool closes Mondays and Thursdays, 11am–2pm, for cleaning
No on-site carpark; bring a pail if you want to collect the spring water

Before you go
Can I cook eggs at Sembawang Hot Spring Park?
Yes, an egg cooking station uses the hot spring water, which comes out at 70°C, but you bring your own eggs and containers. Buckets or pails are yours to bring too if you want to carry water home. For a soak instead, the water cools as it steps down four tiered pools, where you sit on the edge for a foot bath.

When is Sembawang Hot Spring Park quietest?
NParks says the park is busiest on weekday evenings from 4pm to 7pm and all day on weekends and public holidays. A weekday morning is the easier slot, and Tuesday, Wednesday or Friday also avoids the foot-bath pool's cleaning closure on Mondays and Thursdays, 11am to 2pm. Our hot spring and jetty day is built around a weekday morning.

How do I get to Sembawang Hot Spring Park?
Canberra MRT is the nearest station, and the park has no carpark of its own. Drivers park at 114 Yishun Ring Road and walk 450m, about eight minutes. A bicycle bay holds 20 bikes, though cycling, skating and personal mobility devices aren't allowed inside. A group larger than 20 needs a permit before visiting.
