Civil Service Chalets on Ubin

Tucked away on the eastern shore of Ubin on its own beach was the old Civil Service Chalets. Comprising several chalets with modern facilities and an old bungalow with more basic facilities and bunk beds. There are also barbecue pits and a large shelter for group activities.

The chalets were shut down in 2001 with the pending reclamation of Ubin's east coast. Although the reclamation has been deferred for 10 years, the chalets have not been reopened.
