You’ve seen Singapore in all her glory in the day, but do you know there are activities that opened up a whole new side of our sunny island when the sun comes down? If you’re not one to hit the clubs, check out these 10 other activities you can do at night.
1. Night Safari
Do you know Singapore’s Night Safari is the world’s first nocturnal zoo? Housing more than 2,500 animals, the Night Safari showcases their animals through lighting that resembles moonlight. Much like the Singapore Zoo, animals at the Night Safari are separated from visitors with natural barriers. To take in the sights, choose between taking a tram and walking the trails.
Where: 80 Mandai Lake Road, Singapore 729826

2. Cosmic bowling
You may have heard of bowling, but have you tried cosmic bowling? Cosmic bowling is bowling, with a twist! Strike down pins with glowing balls against thumping party music. If you’re no good at the sport, you could always dance along to the songs.
Where: Orchid Bowl @ THE CHEVRONS, SAFRA Yishun, SAFRA Tampines, E!hub

3. Night cycling
Are you one of those who exercise at night? Why not swop out a day of running with a night of cycling? If you don’t have a bicycle, simply rent one from the bike vendors at East Coast Park and be on your way! With the sea, wind and stars for company, wouldn’t it be a good time to zen and relax?
Where: East Coast Park
4. Prawning
Looking for an activity that could accommodate more than three people? Try out prawning at Hai Bin Prawning, which is opened the entire day, every day. The prawn pond is refilled regularly, so there is no need to worry even if you’re a newbie; you’re bound to catch something! Plus, wouldn’t it be sweet to barbeque your own catch at the end of the night?
Where: 16 Tebing Lane #01-04, Singapore 828835
5. Gardens by the Bay
With Singapore’s hot and humid weather, we understand what a put-off taking a stroll in a park would be. So we’re suggesting you do it at night! Gardens by the Bay easily reflects Singapore’s reputation as the premier tropical Garden City. The conservatories and skyway closes at 9PM, but the Outdoor Gardens is opened all the way until 2AM. Fancy a late-night picnic? Now you know where to go.

6. Ghostbusting
For those looking for a thrill, why not gather a few friends and check out the rumoured haunted places such as the old Changi Hospital, Har Par Villa or the Tanglin Hill Brunei Hotel? If real paranormal activities are not quite your thing, Universal Studios Singapore’s fifth Halloween Horror Night is on till October 31. Get ready to get freaked out!

7. Stargazing
Singapore’s pretty well-lit at night, so if you thought you couldn’t see stars from our tiny island, think again. If you’re a constellation aficionado, head down to Science Centre Singapore, where they hold free stargazing sessions from 7.50PM to 10PM at The Observatory. You are also introduced to the stargazing basics in Singapore through a series of astronomy talks.

8. Karaoke
What better way to relieve stress than to sing your hearts out? Grab a few friends, book a room at karaoke places such as Teo Heng and Tang Music Box, and make some noise! These places offer a wide range of music and their song lists are updated regularly. From Backstreet Boys to One Direction, to Big Bang, you are bound to find a song that fulfils your musical tastes and vocal range.

9. The Mind Café
How could going to a board-game café sound boring, when you’d be having loads of fun with friends? After all, it takes at least two persons to play. At The Mind Café, you can choose from an eclectic mix of games including the classic Cluedo, Monopoly, and Cards against Humanity. Moreover, the café has an extensive food menu, which will keep your stomach filled while you play.

For something that is totally off the beaten track, visit the Senoko Fishery Port, a wholesale fish market, from between 2AM to 6AM (excluding Mondays), to understand how seafood ended up on your table. Why not bust out your flip-flops and walk around the market to check out the freshest catch of the day!
