Located right in the middle of the Marina Bay sightseeing area, Singapore Flyer has been a top-rated attraction since it opened many years ago. All those Singapore Flyer is extremely popular with families, it is also a very romantic spot to visit at night time when Singapore’s famous Skyline is illuminated. There are multiple different dining options available at Singapore Flyer and in this article, we will try our best to outline all of the different options available for you.
Why should you visit?
It is challenging to visit Singapore without seeing the Singapore Flyer located right in Marina Bay’s heart. Singapore Flyer is without question one of the best attractions in the city. One of the world’s largest observation wheels offers stunning panoramic views of Singapore’s skyline and the surrounding Marina Bay area. It stands at a truly impressive 165m from the ground and consists of 28 viewing capsules. Each capsule can accommodate up to 28 passengers, giving it a maximum capacity of 784 people at any given time.
Singapore Flyer rotates at a speed of 0.24 m per second, or 0.76 km/h. This speed is ideal for taking jaw-dropping photos of Singapore’s famous skyline. You can expect each complete rotation of the Flyer to last approximately 30 minutes. However, some of the dining options at Singapore Flyer offer 60 minutes equal to two complete rotations.
If the skies are clear with little cloud cover or pollution, the maximum viewing distance from the Singapore Flyer is 45 km. It is possible to see neighbouring countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia when the weather is ideal.
Visiting Singapore Flyer is an amazing experience, but so too is dining there! Eating at Singapore Flyer is truly a memorable experience and one you should prioritize while you are in the city.
