January in Ubin

January would be the best month to visit Ubin. The December rainy season is just over. The island is dry and breezy, skies are blue and the air is bright and clear. You don’t get weather like that too often. Its also perfect for photography.

Clear skies

A superzoom point-and-shoot camera is an ideal tool. A great all-round camera. Here are the pictures we got in a single day outing.
Its a lucky day. Having a camera ready also make you more observant too.

Spiders

There are large ones, this one built its web at eye level along a unused trail north of the island.

A word to the arachnophobic (fear of spiders). Ubin forested areas are full of spiderwebs. Wave a stick or branch in front of you to catch them before your face does.
