Labrador Nature Reserve

Labrador Villa Road, Singapore 119187

Labrador Nature Reserve, know also as Labrador Park, is located in the southern tip of Singapore. It has a rocky sea-cliff coastal line where the public can enjoy the sea views and sea breeze. 

Labrador Nature Reserve is connected to the Southern Ridges, which spans other green areas such as Mount Faber Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, and Kent Ridge Park. This coastal park allows a great view of the cable cars bobbling from Mount Faber to Harbourfront Centre, and all the way to Sentosa Island. 

The views during sunset is also not to be missed, and it is also a place to watch the ferries and large holiday cruises.

Labrador Nature Reserve was an important World War II site. Check out the war remnants of British military battlement, including gun posts and artillery pieces.
