The Woodlands Waterfront Park is one of the newest waterfront park launched in May 23 2010. This Waterfront Park overlooks Johor Bahru. Part of the Waterfront Park included the abandoned Royal Malaysian Navy’s Naval Special Forces (PASKAL) before it moved to Perak in 1979.
Taken in 2008, these was part of the old Royal Malaysian Navy base before the Waterfront Park transformation

The Jetty is 400m long and stretches to almost the end of the Singapore territorial maritime border.
The jetty is popular with the anglers as it is teeming with fishes. This is one lucky catch for a very lucky angler. Each time he threw down his line, he doesn’t need to wait for more than 30 minutes before hauling up fishes.

The jetty is currently the highlight of the park. Much of the shoreline park was still under construction when I was there. Bring an umbrella as you would be exposed to the elements both the sun and rain. Because you are in the middle of the sea, it can really get very windy there so do hold on to your things otherwise it may fly.
To get to the Woodlands Waterfront Park, you could either walk through the Admiralty Park from Woodlands Interchange or take bus 856 from the same interchange.
