Good place for walking with a view on Marina Bay Sands and skyscrapers. The best place to see the fountain show (at 8 and 9pm daily). There are a lot of bars and restaurants, which offer inside and outside seats.

As you approach the waterfront you get glimpses of the Marina Bay Sands through the gaps in the buildings, it's a like the eventual vista teases you. Once you get to the waterfront the majesty of the Sands lies in front of you. to the right is the Fullerton Hotel, take a walk up the river bank and see the various bronze statues on the way up to Clarke Quay

Walked this promenade several times during our stay. We started off at the Singapore flyer end,and walked down to the shops and restaurants at the Merlion end.
Tough walk in the heat and humidity, but worth it. Lots to see.

It is a good place where you can take a couple of photos. Day or night both views are great. You may sit and relax while enjoying the background.

We walked all around this area on a hot Sunday afternoon. There were lots of locals out for a nice relaxing walk.
Great sights from the harbour front.

Quite an eye opener. We were there 6 years ago and then the grandeur had only just stated, now it is complete and 'look out'... wall to wall money everywhere you look. Trendy young chinese woman parading all over the stores. It is a very interesting part of the world and well worth a look.

Is the light show at Marina Bay at 8pm visible from the Skypark Observation Deck? Thank you.

Yes and you should be able to see the 'super trees' from there too. We did get charged 20 dollars each to go on the observation deck, but you can put that towards the cost of a drink. We watched from the ground floor outside at the back. it was spectaular - although we did get slight wet, it was amazing.

Hi, is it better to watch the light show from outside the casino back towards the Fullerton Hotel or from the Fullerton hotel looking out towards the casino side?

You want to be watching the show from the back of the mall and casino and looking toward the Fullerton Hotel. The show literally takes place right there. To be honest there are no bad seats to view the show.

What time is the light and sound show? When is the best time to visit this place?

Light show is at eight and nine - but be sure to visit during the day. The shock of seeing a suspended ship atop three futuristic towers with the blue sky atop it is worth seeing.

just back from Singapore 3day break and Clarke Quay and the marina bay (hotel) aren't actually in the same area so not sure why people have said they are. Clark Quay is more in land and is a little cheesy selection of bars and restaurants. The waterfront promenade is about 20mins walk from Clarke Quay and then to walk to marina bay (hotel/shops etc) this is another good 20/25 min walk from the promenade (where the theatre is).. if you have a few hours you can walk and see everything but they aren't that near and it it a good 45 min walk from the Quay to MBS

alloggerò al marina bay sand come faccio a raggiungere il lungomare?

Il Marina Bay Sands si affaccia da un lato su un grande parco pubblico (Gardens By The Bay) che giunge al mare (ma non un lungomare). Dall'altro lato l'hotel ha l'estensione su un enorme e splendido centro commerciale di lusso con annesso teatro, pista di pattinaggio, museo. Usciti dal centro commerciale c'è una bella passeggiata pedonale sulla baia. Sembra un lungo mare. Di fatto non lo è perché la baia è artificiale e si immette nel Singapore River che poi va al mare.
Bellissima zona. Quella più moderna e di lusso della città. Lungo quel "lungomare" ogni sera ci sono giochi di luci e la possibilità di fare anche jogging.
Ciao,
Alessandra

Hallo zusammen,
wir werden im August erstmals in Singapur sein. Wir begeisterte Hobbyfotografen und mich würde interessieren, von welchem Standort aus man die beste Aussicht auf die nächtliche Skyline von Singapur hat. Also mit Marina Sands Hotel, Merlion etc. und ob es gelegentlich Probleme gibt, wenn mit Stativ fotografiert wird. Ich habe gelesen, dass man oben auf dem Marina Sands Hotel das nicht so gerne sieht...
Schöne Grüße

How far is this attraction from where the cruise ship docks

I'm not sure of the exact distance but it's not far. There are many buses, the metro and cars that can take you. I would say it would take less than half hour by metro.

Not exactly sure how far. Probably best to take a taxi as they are reliable and not too expensive particulalry in the intense tropical heat.
