I still remembered, during the first trip, how me and my friend got lost in Pulau Ubin and how we walked for more than 1 hours (up slope and down slope and up slope and down slope and... well you should get the idea...) to only reach Chek Jawa after the tide had rise.
This time round, we choose to take a cab to the place and follow a tour. We got to see Chek Jawa at its lowest tide and not to mention quite a few animals :) Below are some photographs taken during the trip: the place and some of the animals sighted.
Place
Chek Jawa is a beautiful place. Looking down from the observation deck gives a great view of the shore.

Animal
Upon reaching, the wild boar family came out of the forest in hoping of getting food from the visitors.

This is my first time seeing male laced woodpecker. We had just descend from the observation deck, I heard a tu-tu-tu sound and headed back, just when the guide shouted in excitement: there's a woodpecker!!

There are a lot of species of crab (as expected from mangrove, rocky and coastal habitats).

These two fiddler crabs were just fighting and retreated into the burrow when they sense movement on the boardwalk.

We also see some corals and anemones...
