East Coast Park stretches 15km along Singapore’s southeastern coastline and is one of Singapore’s most popular recreational spaces. Built entirely on reclaimed land completed in the 1970s and 1980s, the park now sits where the sea once was — and where communities once lived. Today, ECP is home to rich intertidal ecosystems, cycling and beach communities, heritage sites, and one of Singapore’s most diverse collections of park users.
