Yacht Activities
With the standard of living in Singapore getting higher each year, yachting has been getting more and more popular nowadays. If you are wondering what yacht activities one can enjoy, you have come to the right place. We will share with you what yacht activities you can do when you charter a yacht with us.
List of Yacht Activities
Following is the list of yacht activities you can consider:
- Accommodation
- Cruise
- Dining
- Fishing
- Island Hopping
- Water Activities
Above list of activities is not exclusive and more can be added as deem suitable. We will discuss in brief what they are below.
Accommodation
Instead of staying in a bricks and mortar 5 star hotel, how about staying in a mobility one at sea? Just imagine you wake up in a fully air-conditioned suite early in the morning and when you walk out of the cabin, you are welcome by the magnificent view of the sunrise slowly appearing from the horizon of the clear blue sea and the natural cool sea breeze blowing on your face!
Most of the cabins have wall-mounted Flat-Screen LCD TV which can play video-on-demand and en-suite toilet providing hot and cold water shower. Although the cabins have limited available space, they are ergonomically designed to fit standard european-sized adults comfortably. Some cabins are double-bedded for couples while single-bedded cabins are also available in some yachts offering more privacy. In case you are afraid of sea-sick and just want to spend the night with the yacht docked, it is also possible. We will try to accommodate all your needs as far as possible.
Cruise
Alternatively you can just enjoy the adrenaline of fast speed by cruising aboard yacht. The advantage with chartered yacht is that you can choose when and where to cruise unlike those cruise ships whose itineraries are pre-determined with fixed embarkation date and time and fixed destinations. You can decide who to cruise with you as we offer private yacht chartering service and do not have to worry about mixing with some strangers.
Dining
Food is the favourite of all man-kinds and is the source of survival. Enjoying a good meal with your loved ones, family or friends in a fabulous place is what everyone desires. That is why it is important that we offer dining options for all kinds of functions and events for our clients. You can choose from our most popular barbecue or buffet menus with no pork and no lard. We can provide private chef service by performing bbq pit set up, grilling, food serving and cleaning up for you. You can also decide to dine on board yacht or on the islands depending on the yacht you choose. In whatever case, you will surely have an extraordinary dining experience!
Fishing
Offshore deep sea fishing is what every anglers strive to experience. What better ways than to charter a private yacht for your fishing trip? Or maybe you are not really into fishing but this is one hobby you can consider learning since you have nothing else better to do on board yacht?
Whatever the case, you can expect your catch to be rather different from what you will normally get from fishing along coastline, at jetty or at reservoir. They will be relatively bigger and probably easier to catch than what you expect, provided the yacht crews are experienced and know the surrounding water well. Hence it is important to inform about your intended yacht activities before booking the yacht so that suitable accompanied crews will be selected. And as fishing is a patience game, it requires longer chartering duration. A minimum yacht rental of 8 hours is recommended.
Island Hopping
Do you know that Singapore has more than 60 offshore islands? How many of them do you know? You may be surprised that not many people, including the locals, can name more than 20 of them. Hence it is not surprise that hardly anyone visited all of them. How about consider exploring some of them? Although you can do that, please be mindful that not all islands can be visited. Some Islands require special permit to board. Hence it is important that you approach the right yacht chartering service provider who can give the right advice. You do not want to be stop by the marines during your yacht vacation, do you?
Water Activities
The most common ones are swimming, kayaking, scuba diving and snorkelling. You can also consider to play with floats, jet ski and sea scooter although they may be chargeable and subject to availability. Best part with yacht chartering is you can choose where you want to perform these water activities. You may want to select a seclude place where nobody is around so that you can make as much noise as you want without worrying of disturbing others or you can just do it nakedly to get a good body tan? The choice is really up to you!

Adam Monaghan
I celebrated my 30th Birthday through Singapore Yacht Charter and it was one of the best days I've had in Singapore. Sam was incredibly helpful and accommodating to all my requests on the lead up to the day of the trip and the staff on-board were fantastic and friendly. I can't recommend them highly enough
Shahul Hameed
We engaged Singapore Yacht Charter for our documentary filming about Singapore Maritime coming on ChannelNewsAsia in 2018. We used the HomeAway boat as our crew boat to follow the presenter's yacht. I was very impressed with the captain's knowledge of the sea. He brought us to various points out in the sea where we can get good aerial shots of Singapore Skyline; The Craft was quick and comfortable too. Overall we had, a fulfilling day at work. Thank you, guys!
