8 Sep (Sat): FREE Chek Jawa boardwalk tour with the Naked Hermit Crabs

It's the September school break! Come explore Chek Jawa on Pulau Ubin with us. Even though we are not going down to the shore, Chek Jawa's rich mangrove and inter-tidal ecosystems will fascinate us. There are lots of cute mudskippers, fiddler crabs, monitor lizards, wild boars, little schools of fishes, bugs, birds, snakes, the list goes on. And if we are lucky, we may get to see the Oriental Pied Hornbills, White-bellied Sea Eagles, and perhaps even the otters!

(By the way, we have another walk at Pasir Ris Mangroves on 1st September. Check that one out too!)

At the end of the walk, we will let the young ones, as well as the young-at-heart, draw and write what they feel about Chek Jawa.

Time: 9:30 am Duration: about 2 hours 
Meeting Place: Chek Jawa Information Kiosk, Pulau Ubin

Beautiful Day at Chek Jawa

The Crabs took a group of 30 visitors out to Chek Jawa Boardwalk on Saturday, and what a glorious and beautiful day we had! Blue skies, fluffy white clouds, verdant forests, cool sea breezes, interesting animals, funny stories and happy jolly people.  We truly enjoy our walks every month. I know it sounds like a cliché, but it is a privilege to be able to share the beauty of Chek Jawa with people who care about preserving natural places. Read on and enjoy the photos.

Here is the entire group before the start of the walk. We brought a Singapore flag in celebration of our nation’s 47^th birthday. May we have more natural places preserved for their precious flora and fauna biodiversity!
