We got to Adventure Cove at 10am (opening time) and headed straight to the snorkelling area. This is highly recommended if you are interested in snorkelling, as later in the day there is a huge line for entry. You are provided with snorkel gear and permitted to do one lap of the large pool, which contains 20,000 colourful tropical fish. Of course, snorkelling in a man made area cannot be compared to my last snorkelling experience - around the islands off the coast of Phuket, Thailand - but seeing beautiful neon fish up-close can never get old.
It costs $1 to enter Sentosa via the boardwalk, and $36 to enter Adventure Cove. If you would like to do additional activities, such as swimming with dolphins, this will cost extra. Entry to Universal Studios is $74, however I don't go on theme park rides and I'm not really into movies so it seems wiser to save my money to spend in Europe!
Afterwards, we lazed around on tubes in the adventure river before spending some time in the tsunami pool (a pool with large man made waves).
After lunch we took the monorail to Siloso Beach (one of the three beaches) and spent the rest of our day there.
Sentosa offers a wide range of activities, and would take at least two days if you are more adventurous than me... Here are some of the activities to fill your days with:
Universal Studios
Zip lining
Indoor skydiving
Segwaying
Jet packing (see photo below)
Water slides
Swimming with dolphins or sharks
We had a great day and it is easy to see what all the hype is about.
