Best go only if you have own transport. I go fishing there sometimes. It's peaceful. Bring a torch if you're going at night. Although there's a police outpost there, I still wouldn't recommend walking all the way to the right of the beach where the railings indicate a canal, which incidentally crosses TPE if you can see that far. Oh and don't step in the high grass, dunno whether got snake or not.

If you want to walk in, it will take 20 – 30 minutes. Beware of speeding vehicles.

Close-up view from satelite, you can see the jetty and the beach beside it:

Apart from the usual bikies going in a group in the night to enjoy the sea breeze and chit chat, usually it's deserted... with only a small handful who fish there.

Things to note over there:

1. The rustic ambience it had back about almost a decade ago was gone. The railings erected. The land reclaimation also ongoing.

2. The old fuel "Shell" station that was there long time ago servicing small boats for refuelling purposes is also gone.

3. Most importantly, the thing that still exist is the flat monument that was erected (very short), a square platform about 2ftx2ft, to commemorate the Jap occupation in SG decades ago, also about the massacre:

It's under a tree heading to the jetty, unmistakenable. Lol maybe after reading the SPI you wouldn't want to visit this place anymore. Been there alot of times for activities and heard alot of friends talking abt the beach being "dirty". Up to you to believe lol.

A place i would rather recommend if you had a car is the Punggol 17th Avenue. It has a service road that links up to Marina Country Club. You can sit in your car and gaze out towards the granite beach.
