Sentosa Unveils Two New Attractions: The Palawan @ Sentosa & Tipsy Unicorn Beach Club
Bali, Boracay and Phuket are popular travel destinations for their beautiful beaches, but there are two new attractions right here in our homebase where we can get idyllic beach holiday feels. Sentosa has unveiled The Palawan @ Sentosa, a one-stop entertainment paradise, and will soon launch Tipsy Unicorn Beach Club, an upscale party hotspot where all the cool kids will be.

Presented by the Shangri-La Group, this 183,000-square-foot attraction will have eight zones including some activities that are new to Singapore and designed for visitors of all ages.
HyperDrive

Love go-karting and gaming? You'll get both these worlds at once at HyperDrive, an electric go-kart circuit with gamification features. Divers are immersed in the world of real-life racing coupled with interactive virtual gaming while they zoom around a three-level racetrack. Collect 'weapons' to sabotage competitors or 'boosts' to turbo-charge to the finish line.
HyperDrive will open in mid August.
UltraGolf

Golf enthusiasts will have yet another playing ground at this tournament-worthy, 18-hole mini golf course (from $22) with 750m of playing length. Each of its 18 holes feature 2 tee positions catering to everyone from seasoned players to beginners and even kids.
Splash Tribe Beach Club

Families looking to beat the heat with good ol' water activities can head to Splash Tribe. This family-oriented beach club has a sandcastle-themed wet-play zone and an infinity pool.
There are a few seating areas available to book ($10/person, min. spend from $50). Go for the poolside deck for easy access to the pool and a panoramic view of the beach club, the in-water sun loungers for the perfect tanning spot, or a dining table to enjoy your meal in comfort.
If you're in the mood to treat yourself, do it right and book the 2-storey gazebo fitted with sofas, daybeds and hammocks. This seating area is also ideal for families as it's located between the children's play areas and the beach.
This beach club has an extensive menu with crowd-pleasing bites like Duck Lettuce Wraps ($8), Cheeseburger ($28) and Char Siew Pork Buns ($9). Finish the meal on a sweet note with desserts like Rainbow Cake ($22) and Golden Crispy Churros ($12) and wash it down with beverages such as Cocktails ($21 - $23) and Milkshakes ($12 - $14).
