Singapore, a dazzling metropolis with futuristic architecture and colourful culture, offers more than just sightseeing for couples. Beyond the iconic landmarks lie special romantic experiences waiting to be discovered.
There's a reason why countless movies feature couples strolling hand-in-hand on the beach and the shorelines of Singapore offer such perfect settings! Unwind with a leisurely walk along the shore, feeling the soft sand between your toes and the cool breeze on your skin. Share whispered secrets as you gaze out at the endless horizon, planning future adventures together. If tranquillity is your priority, head to Tanjong Beach on Sentosa Island. This secluded paradise transforms into a romantic haven at night, with the twinkling lights of nearby ships creating a magical backdrop under the starlit sky.
Do not let the bustling cityscape fool you, this island nation boasts numerous green sanctuaries too. Pack a basket filled with your favourite treats, and head to one of the many parks for a charming picnic date. Punggol Waterway Park, a hidden gem, offers a therapeutic garden with aromatic plants; spread out your picnic blanket and let the calming fragrance and gentle water sounds lull you into a state of relaxation. Another fantastic option is Fort Canning Park which is easy to reach from Kampong Glam-based 5 star serviced apartments in Singapore. Nestled amidst historical artefacts and lush gardens, you will find hidden nooks at this park, perfect for a romantic rendezvous!
For a touch of elegance and a date that's guaranteed to impress your significant other, treat yourselves to an imperial high tea experience. Consider venues like the Tian Fu Tea Room at Pan Pacific Serviced Suites Beach Road, Singapore which offers a unique and luxurious setting complete with intricate oriental artefacts, beautiful calligraphy paintings and tea accessories. Immerse yourselves in the time-honoured tradition of "yum cha" as you savour premium Chinese tea paired with exquisite handmade dim sum. Each bite of these delicate delights is a visual and culinary treat, perfect for sparking conversation and creating lasting memories.
Embark on a romantic boat tour along the Singapore River, a delightful way to explore the city's architectural wonders from a unique perspective. Enjoy a daytime cruise and marvel at the city's awe-inspiring skyline and historical buildings reflected in the water. For a more intimate setting, set sail on a dinner cruise and enjoy mesmerising views of the lively Clarke Quay, the iconic Merlion statue, and the impressive Marina Bay Sands. As night falls, these landmarks transform into a dazzling display of lights, creating a breathtaking backdrop for a romantic dinner. Feeling bold? This could be the perfect opportunity to pop the question!
Don’t miss this chance to experience one of the most unique things to do in Singapore for couples. Make your way to Scentopia on Sentosa which features over 300 augmented reality experiences as well as a touchless perfume-making bar. The real magic lies in crafting your own signature perfume, a fragrance that reflects your unique love story. You have over 200 essential oils at your disposal to create countless combinations. Take a fun personality quiz to discover your scent preferences and work together to design a bespoke fragrance that will forever remind you of this special date.
