- ⚠️We operate our mangrove experience in shallow water, relying on tide levels to access the channels. During Super High Tide or High Tide, you can explore the mangrove channels extensively. However, during Medium to Low Tide, kayak access may not be possible. In such cases, we conduct the tour in shallower waters near Purple Island, with a possible walk to reach the kayaks. Check the tide level in the Alkhor area or consult our team for the best high tide timings.
- We offer BBQ meals as an optional choice, sourced from third-party catering. They deliver the meals to our campsite in ready-to-eat boxes for your convenience.
