SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): Sunseekers can happily frolic in the waters at six beaches in Singapore that have been given a “good” grading. But the waters off another one – Sembawang Park Beach – are not safe for swimming.

Pasir Ris Beach, which got a fair grading in February 2024, is now suitable for swimming and activities such as wakeboarding, windsurfing and water immersion training, said the National Environment Agency (NEA) on Jan 24.
