8-clam day at Terumbu Raya!

Surveying the western part of this enormous reef flat, the team find a record number of Giant clams and other amazing marine life.

Like many of our submerged reefs, Terumbu Raya is too huge to survey completely during the narrow low tide window. This is the first time we are checking out this side.

Shorebird rescue and signs of dugong at Chek Jawa

A small team of volunteers did our annual health check on the northern shores of Chek Jawa with permission from NParks.

We are delighted to see many many dugong feeding trails. The team also rescued a trapped shorebird (our second encounter of this situation). However, there seems to be a lot less seagrass in the area.

Paying respects to our Big Sister

It has become our tradition to survey Big Sister's Island during the Lunar New Year. Part of Singapore's first Marine Park, the island is closed for enhancement works till end March 2024. We did our survey with permission from NParks.

The shores seem to be well, with corals and lots of colourful marine life still thriving here.

Four-clam day at Pulau Jong

Kelvin Yong's stunning drone footage illustrates the beauty of our last unspoilt island. This is what our Southern Islands looked like before they were reclaimed. 

Dubbed the 'char siew pau' island because of its cute dumpling shape, Pulau Jong has a huge reef flat that is exposed at low spring tide. This reef flat together with the domed island is said to resemble the silhouette of a Chinese sailing junk, thus 'Jong'. Although it lies near petrochemical plants on Pulau Bukom, the Landfill and major shipping lanes, the island is still very much alive.
