Looking for the perfect place to go wakeboarding? Here’s our comprehensive list of the best (mostly kid-friendly) places to wakesurf or wakeboard in Singapore!
If you’re a thrill-seeker or just looking to try something new, wakeboarding in Singapore is a fun sport that keeps you cool in the scorching heat! Did you know that Singapore is one of the few places in the world where you can wakeboard all year round? So why not gather your family, learn how to wakeboard, and plan a fun day out at sea? Who knows, you might just find your next hobby!
How old do kids need to be to be able to wakeboard?
It’s always advisable to be water confident before doing any sports in the open water – so as long as your child can swim well and can follow instructions they should be good to wakeboard. Different wake board centres have different minimum age requirements so always call ahead. You will be wearing a life jacket when wakeboarding in the open seas as well as in the sheltered lagoon wake space at Singapore Wake Park at East Coast.
Wakesurfing vs wakeboarding in Singapore
The key difference between wakeboarding and wakesurfing is that for wakeboarding, you hold onto a boat-towed rope or a cable skiing style rope (eg at Singapore Wake Park) throughout the duration of the ride. In wakesurfing, you will release the rope to ride out or ‘surf’ a wake.
