Singaporeans are still clamouring to visit! The system adopted for low tide walks on the seashore is as follows: on the first of the month before every quarter, the suitable low tide dates for the next quarter are released on the NParks webpage: i.e. 1st Dec (dates in Jan-Mar), 1st Mar (dates in Apr-Jun), 1st Jun (dates in Jul-Sep) and 1st Sep (dates in Oct-Dec).

Pick a suitable date and either call the Pulau Ubin Hotline (Tel: 6542-4108) or visit the NParks Information Kiosk at Pulau Ubin between 8.30 am and 5.00 pm to book a visit. Spaces are limited, so do keep trying if you do not get a place right away. Note that block bookings are not allowed.
