For a one page site you're better off using static HTML etc. There's little scope for dynamic content in a one page design. If you do want to use WordPress for whatever reason, then just hard code in a menu as you would with an HTML page.

You can but what's the point? One page sites are just a page and the content isn't going to change very often. If it does it's no harder to change the code than it is to change the post.

Only plus for using WordPress is the use of plugins etc.

Here: http://charlie.globotek.net/ is a one page WP page but it has WooCommerce and an app attached to it as well. That's just the landing page. The menu is just code, not a WordPress menu although I could use a WP menu if I wanted but the page isn't going to change much, if ever, so no need to.
