Another popular place to fly kite is at the Marina Barrage, there’s a kite shop (http://www.barragecove.com.sg/) at the location but it might be more expensive that what you can get it from other kite shops outside of the Marina area.

There’s the one kite seller with a funny name http://www.goflykite.com/ at Chinatown that sort of make use of the pun in Singlish:

GO FLY KITE (Contributed by Daniel) Derived from the English
admonition “go fly a kite!” which means “piss off”, “f*** off”, “buzz
off”, etc, depending on your level of profanity-tolerance. Of course,
we economical Singaporeans have removed the extraneous indefinite
article. “He know I so busy, still ask me to do things. Ask him go fly
kite, lah!”

Other nice places to fly kite includes:

  • East/West Coast Park
  • Sembawang Park (in the north)
  • Jurong Central Park (in the far west)

Almost any other park that near the extremes of Singapore has stronger winds for kite flying (Here’s a list of parks: https://www.nparks.gov.sg/gardens-parks-and-nature/parks-and-nature-reserves) ;P

Does SKA fly luminous kites?

Kites are tethered flying objects. It has come to our attention that a local company is marketing remote control flying crafts (fitted with flashing LED lights) with the word “kite” in their product. These objects are NOT “kites” Conversely, if you see a flying toilet seat tethered on a line, this flying seat is a kite.
