Coney Island Park (Pulau Serangoon)

A 133-hectare island off Punggol, once owned by the Aw brothers of Tiger Balm. In 1950 it was sold to a businessman who planned a resort modelled on New York's Coney Island. Since October 2015 a 50-hectare NParks park has kept it deliberately rustic: casuarina woods, a 2.5 km car-free trail, hidden beaches and bridges at both ends to the mainland.

Punggol Beach Massacre Site

A National Heritage Board historic site. On 23 February 1942, during the Japanese Sook Ching operation, a Hojo Kempei firing squad killed some 300–400 Chinese civilians on the Punggol foreshore. Human remains turned up in the sand in 1977 and 1997. An NHB marker set up in 1995, for the 50th anniversary of the end of WWII, records the killings.
