Map: Sembawang Park BBQ Pits

Map: Sembawang Park BBQ Pits

This map of Sembawang Park's bbq pit can be obtained from NParks online BBQ booking system.

A few of the pits are scattered within Sembawang Park. Many other outdoor public bbq pits are lined along the edge of Sembawang Park, with a cool view of the sea. Strong breeze from the coast can make fire starting a tricky affair here. There are public shelters next to the pits but these shelters cannot be booked online. It is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Outdoor public barbecue enthusiasts should book a bbq pit early on weekends in order to get a pit for your bbq party. There is a fee that you need to pay after online booking of BBQ pit is done.

Enjoy your BBQ!

Map of Pasir Ris Park BBQ Pits 1 to 23


Map of Pasir Ris Park BBQ Pits 1 to 23

This request for information (and other similar requests) on the BBQ Pits available at Pasir Ris Park was sent to me by e-mail.


There is a detailed Nparks map (above) available on the comprehensive National Parks Board website. When you go online to book the bbq pits, you can choose to view the pit locations before your booking.


I've found another map (above) of the BBQ pit locations at Pasir Ris Park car park A. This copy of the map has been photographed and reproduced here.

To answer M T's question, the nearest BBQ pit at Pasir Ris Park to Downtown East is Pit Number 23. But don't worry, pits 16 to 23 are close together.

I think you can throw barbecued chicken wings from pit number 16 and still hit your target at pit 23 [unless (1) you can't throw, (2) you don't aim, (3) target moves or (4) you rather save your chicken wing for yourself].

For other readers' benefit, you will be pleased to know that wheelchairs can use the cycling / walking paths from Downtown East all the way to the track next to the BBQ pits.

The final few metres off the track to your BBQ pit stone seats, however, require more assistance to overcome as the grass patches are bumpy.


You can see what I mean in the above photograph. This is a shot of BBQ pits from number 1 (in the far back ground where users are gathered) to number 8 (on the left of the picture) at Pasir Ris Park. [Sorry, no picture of pits 9 to 23.]

Perhaps Nparks will consider paving them for wheelchair use as well.

Have a pleasant and enjoyable barbecue!

Picture: BBQ Pit 66, Area F, East Coast Park


For readers who are interested in the picture or photograph of bbq pit 66 at Area F of East Coast Park, I have posted it here.

For a map to see where East Coast Park's bbq pit 66 or Area F is, you can take a look at Npark's map of pit 66 location in East Coast Park.

Directions and details (like Bus service number, route map) on how to get to bbq pit 66 in East Coast Park are also available at the same web location.

Note that camping is allowed in this area of East Coast Park. You can see that Area F is very popular for camping by counting the number of colourful tents that are pitched around the area of bbq pit 66. Part of its popularity could be its proximity to washing facilities, toilets and a car park within a short walk. The sea view and sea breeze are also pleasant attractions here.

Pasir Ris Park has a number of barbecue pits. The number and map location of the barbecue pits are well suited for fantastic outdoor picnics. These outdoor picnic places in Pasir Ris Park are often within walking distance to MRT and have great views of the sea.

The barbecue pits come with concrete tables and seats. Families with children can sit and rest or enjoy recreational places along the sandy shoreline.

Visitors to the barbecue pits will love sand castle building opportunities, leisure strolls along the water's edge or just relax to fulfill their recreational needs. There are also pleasant looking shelters large enough for a number of visitors to seek refuge from the sun or rain.

Washroom facilities with clean water for washing, bathing are near to the barbecue pits in Pasir Ris Park. Toilets are within a short walk from the barbecue pits. You can clear your garbage in the many containers provided next to every barbecue pit.

I have received numerous requests for photographs of Pasir Ris Park barbecue pits and their numbered locations in Pasir Ris Park. Here is one photograph of barbecue pits 61 to 65. This is the area right to the end near Lorong Halus.

Camping Permitted In East Coast Park, Changi Beach Park And Other Parks In Singapore


Camping Permitted In East Coast Park, Changi Beach Park And Other Parks In Singapore

For a taste of the great outdoors, you can camp out in selected parks of Singapore. Camping is allowed at the following five parks:

Changi Beach Park
East Coast Park
Pasir Ris Park
Sembawang Park
West Coast Park

In Singapore, camping is a very popular activity for families, school-going children, teenagers and even adults. Popular areas to pitch tents for a night out include East Coast Park, Changi Beach Park and Pasir Ris Park.

I fondly remember my school days when I had many opportunities to camp overnight, sleeping outdoors under the moonlight at Sarimbun camp. The refreshing cool pre-dawn air always gave me a buzz whenever I rose to watch the sun rise. The touch of cold dewdrops on my poncho never failed to send a thrilling tingle up my spine. In the eerie darkness, I shook with every shrill blast of cicadas calling from the shadows. The tremble of tree leaves under coarse brush of breeze enchanted with their mildly haunting symphony.

Nowadays my children would rather spend the night in their air-conditioned bedrooms than under a hot stuffy tent. When they were introduced to camping initially, enthusiasm was boundless. They tried out for a few hours inside a tent; but alas surrendered to discomfort, and asked to go home.

Permit Required
Since 7 November 2005, the National Parks Board has mandated that a permit is required for camping on weekdays. The areas at the parks that you can camp overnight are also limited to certain portions of the park. This requirement is to weed out over-stayers, the homeless and even illegal immigrants who may exploit the use of amenities and space in the various parks as their temporary home.

The camping permit can be obtained easily. Just set up your tent at the designated area and the park ranger will make his/her round to visit your site. The park ranger will scan your identification card and issue a verification slip that is then attached to your tent. Scanning of the identification cards will be done daily. There is no fee involved.

On weekends and public holidays, no permit is required. **
[**Latest: camping permit required everyday - read new post.]

Precautions To Take
Beware of thunderstorms, floods, fire and lightning.
Know what to do in an emergency like flood and fire.
Keep your important belongings in a safe place.
Beware of theft and robbery.
Keep the campsite clean.
Do not obstruct other park users and cyclists.
Do not disturb other park users.

Most of all, enjoy your camping!

How To Book A Barbecue BBQ Pit At Changi Beach Park, Pasir Ris Park, East Coast Park and other parks In Singapore

Several readers have asked me recently for information on how to book a barbeque BBQ pit at our public parks like Changi Beach Park, Pasir Ris Park or East Coast Park. Book a barbecue BBQ pit and throw BBQ parties that are popular family friendly activities for many Singaporeans. It is also a great way for friends to spend time together, enjoying good BBQ pit cooked food amidst natural spacious sceneries.

I have compiled the information here for other readers who may need to know how to book barbecue BBQ pits in Singapore.

Barbeque BBQ Pit Booking At Parks Of NPARKS
There are three ways to book a National Parks Board barbecue BBQ pit. These are:
(1) Internet Barbecue BBQ pit booking
(2) Phone Barbecue BBQ pit booking
(3) AXS Barbecue BBQ pit booking station

Internet BBQ Pit Booking
The Nparks has an internet bbq pit booking site maintained through AXS. Go to their website (Nparks AXS site) to book a bbq pit.

You will be asked for your choice of date, the name of the park, the BBQ pit booking number as well as other personal contact details. Maps containing bbq pits with numbers are provided on the same site to show you the location of every barbecue bbq pit available on the park that you have chosen to book. After booking, remember to make pit booking payment within 24 hours at the AXS station convenient for you.

Phone BBQ Pit Booking
If you prefer to book a bbq pit through telephone, call this number 6560-2727 from 8am-10pm daily and follow the instructions. Again, remember to make payment within 24 hours to confirm your purchase that you have booked a bbq pit at any AXS station.

AXS BBQ Pit Booking station
There are many of these machines installed all over the island. Check here (AXS online) for the complete list of AXS stations to book bbq pit. At the stations, you can book a bbq pit and complete payment by pressing “Government” and “National Parks Board” buttons to begin. Remember to keep the receipt, as proof of your purchase and booking of bbq pit. Payment after booking via internet or phone must be done within 24 hours at an AXS station to confirm your bbq pit booking purchase.

You should book a barbecue bbq pit at least three days in advance. During popular times when demand is high, you should consider booking a bbq pit much earlier.

Bring Your Own Pits (BYOP)
Some parks allow you to bring-your-own-pit BYOP. Essentially you still need to book the site and make payment via AXS stations. In BYOP, you bring your own mobile bbq pit to the park sites.

Precautions To Take
Keep your bbq pit booking permit with you at all times as park rangers may inspect your site.
Beware of wet weather.
Beware of theft and robbery.
Know what to do in the event of emergencies like fire or accidents.
Clean up after use as a matter of courtesy and civic duty.
