14 Water Sports in Singapore for a full day of fun out at sea
Looking for more outdoor activities to get more sun, sea, and sand? This time, we’re exploring the waters off our sunny island! Whether it’s jumping on a slippery, inflatable playground, or kayaking through mangroves, here are 14 fun water sports and fun things to do out at sea for those who can't get enough Vitamin sea!
1. Explore Pulau Ubin on a Kayak
Don your wet gear and explore the nooks and crannies of Pulau Ubin on a kayak! For something a little rugged, check out this nature kayaking tour where your guide will either lead you through Pulau Ubin’s mangroves or out to the open sea. Rest assured first-timers, you’re in good hands with these experienced and attentive guides.
2. Speedboat around Singapore’s Southern Islands
A ferry ride to the Southern Islands usually takes half an hour. But on a Rigid-Hulled Inflatable Boat (RHIB), seven minutes and a love for speed are all you need. RHIBs are similar to military boats that are used for rescue missions, so you’re in safe hands throughout this adventure.
Thrills aside, you’ll also get to learn more about Singapore’s maritime heritage, marine wildlife conservation, and other green projects around our offshore islands!
3. Throw a Private Yacht Party
For a luxurious holiday with your friends/fam, hire a private yacht! Charters like Tarara Yacht or Yachtcruisesg offer floats and kayaks for you to play on the waters. Alternatively, the White Sails charter provides gear so you can snorkel and even fish around Lazarus Island.
There’s also the snazzy Valencia Yacht for a taste of the Crazy Rich Asian life! We rented it for one afternoon, and we loved tanning on the spacious deck that could fit up to 20 people.
4. Become a sailor and explore the Southern Islands
If lazing away on a yacht isn’t your cup of tea, embark on an educational trip instead. This Southern Islands Yacht Tour lets you have both of both worlds — chill, and be part of the sailing crew for a day!
The knowledgeable guide will take you through the basics of sailing, from steering the yacht to manoeuvring the sails. It’s an excellent experience for curious land dwellers who’ve always wondered what it’s like to navigate a boat.
5. Go Waterbiking
If cycling is your thing, this new Waterbiking activity is definitely for you. Besides being safe and stable, this Waterbike is also easy to steer and paddle. Enjoy the Waterbike as it can reach speeds of up to 15 km/h. It won't be soon before you glide effortlessly over the waters off Pasir Ris! You can choose between a 1, 2 or 3-hour rental, so you'll have plenty of time to explore.
6. HydroDash through obstacles
Floating along Palawan Beach, HydroDash is an inflatable obstacle course that’ll make your Wipeout or Ninja Warrior dreams come true. The playground has two zones — a child-friendly course, and another one for those aged nine and above. It’s a great activity for friends to challenge each other on balancing platforms and steep climbs.
7. Kayak Fishing Experience
Looking for a unique adventure? Why not try Kayak Fishing? Head out to the waters on your trusty kayak to hunt for bottom fishes like parrot groupers and snappers and experience heart-swelling pride when you nail your first catch!
Fret not if you have never tried fishing before, you can opt for the beginner option 'The Playground', while more advanced fishers can go for the 'Big Boat Small Boat' or 'Sandy Shores' packages instead!
👶 The min age for children is 7 years old, children 7-12 years old must be accompanied by an adult in the same tandem kayak
P/S: Book on Klook get to take home a free Fever Dry Bag worth $20!
8. Chase corals on an Intertidal Exploration Tour
This isn't really a water sport - but more of fun thing to do by the water... (it counts right?!) Anyway, you don’t have to fly to Boracay to see coral reefs and starfish — all you have to do is head to Changi Beach and embark on an Experiential Intertidal Exploration tour! Learn more about coastal ecology, crustaceans, echinoderms and more with your knowledgeable guide.
This activity is also the perfect learning journey out of the classroom to teach your kids more about marine life!
9. Sail on the luxurious Royal Albatross
Complete with four grand masts and 22 sails, the Royal Albatross is a gorgeous superyacht. It also resembles an old-school pirate ship, so you can imagine yourself sailing off to your next adventure. There are plenty of sail options to choose from, including a breakfast cruise, a sunset dinner cruise, and even one that is dog-friendly!
10. Stand Up Paddle at Ola Beach Club
Challenge yourself to a new sport - Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP) at Ola Beach Club! If you’ve always wanted to try out surfing but you’re afraid of the waves, this is a great way to get started. Apart from SUP, they also have kayaks and even a banana boat ride to explore Sentosa on water. All necessary safety equipment will be provided and you’ll get a briefing from their supervisor before you begin so this is definitely beginner friendly!
11. Go swimming at Singapore's Best Beach
Visit the offshore Southern Islands of Singapore on an island-hopping day out! If you’ve had to postpone your beach holiday plans, this is a great alternative. Enjoy the beaches of Lazarus Island that are said to be the best beaches you can find in Singapore!
Before you end the day, don't forget to check out the marine life conservation efforts at St John’s Island. You can also island hop to Kusu Island to see some live Tortoises or wish for good fortune.
12. Go exploring on a Private Boat Tour
You may have been to Pulau Ubin numerous times. You may have even cycled around it and stayed over, but have you seen it from the sea? Hop on board a fine catamaran and discover the north-eastern banks of Singapore on this 3-hour kelong tour. It promises to be an insightful trip, exploring the waters around, and even visiting a kelong-restaurant, where you get to experience life on a floating fish farm.
13. FloatFit Yoga or FloatFit HIIT
This doesn't look like a water sport per se but try doing yoga or HIIT on a floating exercise mat - and you'll be surprised at how much sweat you can work up! Yogis, immerse yourself in a zen FloatFit Yoga session out on the water while those who prefer more of a challenge can do FloatFit HIIT, which helps you burn more calories than a regular workout on land! Cool or what?
14. Try Aqua Spin at Ripple Club Water Cycling
Speaking about exercising in a pool...have you tried aqua spin? Try your hand (or legs rather) at cycling in water at The Ripple Club, which specialises in aqua workouts.
There are a wide range of workouts to choose from, including prenatal and water rehabilitation exercises - there are different intensity levels to suit different fitness levels too so don't worry about it being too difficult!
Bonus: Have fresh seafood at Smith Marine Floating Restaurant
Where can you get the freshest seafood in Singapore? Right from the sea of course! And there is no better place to do so than from a kelong itself at Smith Marine Floating Restaurant. Just a 15-minute boat ride away from Changi, this modern fish farm serves up favourite local seafood dishes.
