Paintball

Got some time reserved for a friendly game of paintball? Grab your friends and head out into the Nongsa jungle or on the grounds there and play a few hours "painting" your opponents. You have 30 bullets/paintballs to do the job so aim well and stay focused as you never know where your opponents are hiding ... and there are lots of places to hide for an ambush!

If you decide to go into the jungle, it is a 10-minute ride, while if you choose for a more open terrain like the grounds, it is a 45-minute ride from the hotel. Paintball guns, paintballs, body vest and masks/goggles will be provided, and don't try hitting your opponent at less than 25 feet or even think of wiping the paint off after getting hit as a referee will be present to make sure the rules are abided and no cheating happens among players.

There is a minimum of six participants needed for a game of paintball, certainly any less would not be that much fun. You have the option to buy more bullets if 30 rounds just isn't enough. So get ready and bring out the competitive spirit that has been long dormant!

TRAVELLER'S NOTE: It is advisable to wear a long-sleeved shirt and jeans/trousers rather than shorts. Though paintballs are biodegradable, non-toxic and washable, we do not recommend that you come in white or light-coloured clothing. Also, be sure to book in advance so we can assure you a slot.

** Try Combat Skirmish, which is cheaper and safer, and can be played in the grounds of Batam View Beach Resort.
