The Seafarer's Channel cruise

Ever wondered what it feels like to race through the same waters where ancient spice traders once navigated their precious cargo? That's exactly what you'll experience aboard the Tara K, a high-speed boat that will take you through the Seafarer's Channel for 45 minutes! As you settle in, the crew will hand a refreshing tropical drink, perfectly timed for the spectacular views ahead. The cruise starts along Sentosa's coastline and rushes past the island's pristine beaches. The famous Fort Siloso pillboxes came into view which were vital lookout posts protecting the southern approach to Singapore. The guide will bring their fascinating history to life.

Learn the centuries of maritime history

As we curve around toward Keppel Harbor, you're literally cruising through centuries of maritime commerce. Watch for the historic Dragon's Tooth Gate – named after a natural rock formation that ancient mariners used to navigate these waters. Throughout the journey, you'll find countless perfect shots waiting to be taken. The 45-minute duration hits the sweet spot – long enough to immerse yourself in the experience, and short enough to fit perfectly into your day of exploring Singapore.

What to bring

  • Pack your meds – better to be prepared, since they are not available during the cruise.

  • Bring a towel! Just in case of a splash from the waves or a little drizzle, a small towel could come in handy for a quick dry-off.

What's not allowed

  • Safety is a priority so this experience is restricted to guests under the age of 3 years. An indemnity form needs to be signed by the parent/guardian if the guest insists on boarding for the child aged below 3.

  • Footwear isn’t allowed on the yacht, so slip those shoes into the container provided before boarding and enjoy barefoot.

  • For everyone’s comfort, smoking isn’t permitted on board. Breathe in that fresh sea air instead!

  • Your voucher will be emailed to you instantly.

  • Display the voucher on your mobile phone with a valid photo ID at the boarding point.

  • Please arrive at the boarding point 15 minutes before the scheduled time of your cruise to avoid any delays.
