An island off the north east coast, a place which is largely how Singapore used to be before development took off.

Take a short bumboat ride and spend half a day or longer strolling through the rain forest enjoying that rare Singaporean comodity: peace and quiet. If you want to move more quickly, hire a bike on the island. Don't forget to leave time to eat at the food shacks near the landing point.

This website gives all the information you need. The boats leave pretty frequently so there is no problem about getting over there.

Wetland - which largely means mangrove swamps. Well laid out walkways take you through a variety of natural habitats. The wildlife, especially the birds, is stunning. Gives two or three hours of peace in the Singapore experience.

On the north-west coast of Singapore.

Like everywhere on the island, it is easy to get to by public transport: the website explains all you need to know.
(Of course, even taking a taxi is not particularly expensive - at least not be European standards.)
