Where's this place

teerex · 10th March 2005

I was watching TV last night. The hosts visited a place at Sembawang, looks like a nice place to shoot.

This place at Sembawang has a beach and a Jetty that was supposed to be used during the war. Can see Johor from the beach and there's a park nearby.

Anyone knows where exactly this place is? Or better still how to get there on public transport.

I want to go recce.

If I'm not wrong it's the Sembawang Park area where there is a nice cove called Bottle Village. However, it is not visible from the main road and have to drive quite a distance into the place fom the main road.

Check out the Billeau House there too. Nice place.

Thanks, will try to look at street directory for exact location.

Yes, I saw that House on the TV too. It was used as a resident for a high ranking British Naval officer during the war until the Japanese took over.

There seems to be a lot of history there. Definitely must go.

Been there once. A shortcut will be to walk towards the right on the beach. U can c the jetty from far. Walk on the small path and you'll reach there faster. Otherwise, there is some road into the bottle tree village but that's a longer walk.
