Pulau Ubin November 2011

Like mainland Singapore, November is unusually rainy, although not as severe as experienced in other countries. At least the haze from Indonesia is cleared, with plenty of photo opportunities in bright daylight with beautiful clouds.

But just as sudden, storms appeared and anyone caught out soon got soaked.

The rains soon stopped with soft back-lit scenes and romance in the air.

Wet March

The south west monsoon arrived, just in time when the grass were dying and trees began to shed leaves from lack of rain. Visitors levels fell, making it longer for the bumboats to fill up and leave. Avoid visiting Ubin late in the afternoon or leaving late at night unless you are prepared to wait or share the expense of chartering the whole boat.

Here is a typical wet day in pictures.
