Marina Barrage

Built across the mouth of the Marina Channel, the Marina Barrage creates Singapore’s 15th reservoir, and the first in the heart of the city. With a catchment area of 10,000 hectares, or one-sixth the size of Singapore, the Marina catchment is the island’s largest and most urbanised catchment.

This is the spot whereby many stars in the sky become visible at night. (View from Level 2 of Marina Barrage. Can also enjoy the twinkle stars view along Marina Barrage Bridge at night.)

Not many places in SG where you can see the entire city skyline, but this is one of them. Great spot to chill at night, or do a little stargazing on the grass patch when the sky is clearer.

Adeline Annastasia Tui

Roof top green grass . Good for family picnics as well as dates! You can even fly your kites. If you don't have one, you can always purchase them from the shop downstairs.

Tas (✿╹◡╹)

Great sunset spot, with grass field on building rooftop if you want to sit longer or picnic . Usually lots of people flying kites. View over the city skyscrapers area well as on the gardens & the Bay .

Bokyung Park

What a view !! At the top which is an open field you can see the entire city skyline from Downtown to Suntec City , albeit it's not easy accessing from the MRT.

Jess Thia

Checking out the Marina Barrage Bridge that leads to Gardens By The Bay (Bay East) and the new lagoon on the right.

Lovely look out back towards the city . Come here to fly your kites, picnic or just chill .

rachel

Look for the giant kites over Marina Barrage Rooftop . Glowing octopuses and schools of "Nemo" swim through the night sky against the backdrop of Marina Bay Sands, Supertrees and Singapore Flyer.

Jerrald Ng

Come here in the late afternoon and see the sunset . You can walk to Gardens by the Bay from here and it's recommended to do so, especially in the evening.

Kucing Senget

Lovely place to spend the evening laying on the grass and just enjoy the view of the marina and the many unique kites in the air.

The Ritz-Carlton

The 17 reservoirs in Singapore are responsible for providing 10 per cent of the local water demand. The Marina Barrage is the first reservoir , located in the heart of the city .

Elise ❥

Watch people fly kites here. Great spot for photos. Lovely both during the day and night. Opened 24hrs with ample parking .

Cheen The Curious

Very interesting cloud formation, as it they are emanating from Marina Bay Sands ????

If you go Marina Barrage, you must try the resturant name 77th storey. Is a MUST! It has the best steamboat in Singapore! However, it's a bit expensive but worth it! Seafood steamboat ! $80+ for 2 pax.

MrAniki

Come in the evening and walk to the rooftop . The flying sea creatures will welcome you!

Barry See

Love the architecture design. Big open space good for weekend outing. Free parking !!!

Jess Thia

Stopover here for a stroll after early dinner at Satay By The Bay to enjoy the nice seaview & city view during sunset .

Teresa Shiang

Buy a kite. Pack a picnic . Can't think of a better way to spend a weekend in Singapore!

Supermodelme

Marina Barrage is as a great @visitsingapore attraction . Have a picnic , hold photoshoots , or try a sport at the neighboring Marina Resevoir like windsurfing or dragonboating.

Yahya @ Prodigious.sg

When you're at the Barrage, you have to get a big kite and fly it up in the air! Guarantee can fly! Get 2 rolls of strong kite string so that your kite can rule the sky! Best to fly at the roof! =) Read more

One of the place where we'll get to chill and relax, either with family, friends or even when you're alone.. Even the young ones are not left out. They'll have fun playing at the water playground .

Ben ms

Another place to seize Singapore instead of hopping to 1-Altitude. Come at 11 to enjoy light off from the buildings.

Claudia Kaunang

Go there! And mesmerized yourself with a beautiful view of Singapore skycrappers. Claudia's tip: bring a good book and a bottle of instant ice-coffee, sit back and relax in the sky garden , and don't f

Spectacular fireworks from F1 closing ceremony, with colourful lights reflecting on the calm water .

JM Ocampo

Bike tip when your on the roof top , only one way to go in & out, unless you want to see the solar panels.

Instead of looking the city from the Sands or Singapore Flyer,try view it from a further side, its much more breathtaking

Celine Ong

Maynard Tann

If the parking lot is full, park at Gardens by the Bay , satay parking lot .

François M.

Nice place to cycle to at night.

ryo kelana

Great place to catch sunset

Sindy

Always good to come in the night! Lots of pretty kites with lights, plus it's not sunny at all! :)

Amizyo Hairie

I'd avoid the Barrage itself and go to the empty field behind the carpark. Breezy and lesser people to jostle for space with!

David Goll

Well worth a trip there! The view of the city is simply stunning!
