Vela Bay Unit Selector
District 16 · 515 homes · 99-year leasehold · Launched April 2026
Artist's impression: SingHaiyi Group
All 19 stacks of Vela Bay (1 and 3 Bayshore Walk, District 16, 515 homes, 99-year leasehold) in 3D on the real map, next to the buildings around them at their real heights. Pick a stack and a storey to see which way it faces, what the window looks at, and how many hours of sun reach it once the neighbouring blocks are counted.
Every home is drawn floor by floor, coloured by unit type, in the same colours as the developer’s site plan. Tap a stack or its number to pick it. Drag to move the map; hold Ctrl or Command and drag (or right-drag) to turn and tilt it. On a phone, two fingers move, twist and tilt it, and one finger does in full screen. Zoom in to see every stack number. Navy: your stack. Orange: your storey. Dashed gold line: the view straight out of the window. Dark patches: shadows of the taller buildings at 15:00 on 1/10.

Every stack at a glance
Computed for the middle storey of each tower (storey 16 in the 31-storey blocks), or the middle of its own storeys for a stack that does not have that storey. Sun columns are hours of direct sun on the window on 21 June and 21 December after shading by other buildings; “Afternoon sun” lists the months with an hour or more after 2pm. Open the tool for any other storey or date.

Frequently asked questions
- Which Vela Bay stacks avoid the afternoon sun?
- At mid-height, 6 stacks get less than an hour of direct sun after 2pm in every month: #02, #03, #04, #10 (storeys 5 to 30), #11, #12. The model counts shading by neighbouring blocks; the page's tool shows the figures for any storey.
- Which Vela Bay stacks take the afternoon sun most of the year?
- 8 stacks get an hour or more of direct sun after 2pm in at least ten months at mid-height: #01, #05 (storey 31), #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18.
- Which Vela Bay stacks have the most open view?
- At mid-height, 7 stacks have all nine sight lines across the window (±40° of the facing) clear of any building as tall as the window within 400 m: #09, #03, #05 (storeys 5 to 30), #06, #07, #08, #05 (storey 31).
- Which Vela Bay stacks look straight at another block?
- None of the stacks has a building as tall as itself within 130 m straight ahead.
- Which Vela Bay stacks face a pool?
- Vela Pool: #02, #10 (storeys 5 to 30), #10 (storey 31), #11, #12. A stack counts when at least a quarter of the sight lines across its window reach the water before another tower.
- Which Vela Bay stacks face a road?
- East Coast Parkway: #05 (storeys 5 to 30), #05 (storey 31), #06, #07, #08, #09. Bayshore Walk: #10 (storeys 5 to 30), #10 (storey 31). Bayshore Drive: #16, #17, #18. These have the road within 80 m straight ahead with no other tower of the project in between.
How this is worked out, and its limits
Where the stacks are. Each stack’s outline is traced from the developer’s site plan and fitted to the land parcel on the map. Expect positions within a few metres and bearings within a few degrees. Unit types come from the colour the site plan gives each stack and add up to the published unit mix, and the map uses those same colours; 19 of the 19stacks are also named on the developer’s floor plans, and all of those match.
Facing. The facing is the side the living room and balcony are on, read from the developer’s floor plan for each of the 19 stacks. End and corner homes also have bedroom windows on a second side, which the tool does not model.
What it looks onto. The pools, lawns, courts and pavilions are read off the developer’s site plan and placed on the map with the same fit as the stacks, so they are right to within a few metres. A stack “looks onto” a pool when at least a quarter of 17 sight lines across its window (40° either side of the facing) reach the water before another tower of the project. It “faces out of the estate” when the site boundary is within 50 m straight ahead. Facility names and positions are the developer’s and can change before completion.
Heights. Towers use the developer’s storey counts at an assumed 3.2 m per storey. HDB blocks use HDB’s highest-storey records; other buildings use their storey count or a typical height for their type. Every building is modelled as its footprint raised straight up: no roofs, balconies, trees or slopes.
Sun. The same solar model as the Sun Path & Facing Calculator, checked to within about three minutes, with a building in the way counted as shade. The window is a point at mid-storey height on the middle of the outside wall. Balconies, overhangs and cloud cut real sun further, so read the hours as a ceiling.
Prices. Prices are the developer’s price list by unit type, as at 1 Oct 2026: the lowest and highest asking price for each type, not a price for one home. Floor plans and anything the developer has not published are not shown. Details are as at 2026-10-01 and can change.
