Disappearing Kelongs: Singapore Boat Tour Around Pulau Ubin
Leave the city skyline behind and journey into a quieter, rarely seen side of Singapore — where mangroves, fishing boats, floating homes, traditional kelong structures, and coastal fish farms still tell the story of our maritime past. On this small-group boat tour around Pulau Ubin and the Johor Straits, your licensed local guide and seasoned boat captain brings you through waters that feel worlds away from modern Singapore. Hear stories of disappearing kelongs, old fishing communities, Ubin’s island life, and the narrow stretch of sea separating Singapore from Malaysia. Depending on tide, time of day, and sea activity, you may spot grey herons, fishermen, crab traps, or boats hauling in the day’s catch. Stop at Smith Marine Floating Restaurant, a kelong-style fish farm and seafood restaurant, before cruising back with sea breeze and open coastal views. More than a boat ride, this is a rare chance to experience Singapore’s vanishing coastal heritage before it fades from memory.
