Is there any life in the murky and sedimented waters of Singapore? Do you want to know how to dive Singapore's reefs? Yes! And here's how!
I love SG Reefs showcases Singapore coral reefs and the threats to them. It also hopes to be a platform for keen divers who would like to explore our reefs in safety and comfort.

Where are our shores? What has been lost? Find out about our wonderful intertidal ecosystems and threats to them. And what you CAN do for them.
If you're keen to learn about designing and managing projects for our shore, reading the tides and getting an introduction to our shores, this is the workshop for you! We had a great time the last time this workshop was held last year.

Nature in Singapore: worms transformed and good and bad vines
What does this pretty worm-like thing turn into? We find out in the first series of papers for 2010 in Nature in Singapore by the Raffles Museum of Biodiversity Research!
