By boat

Ferries link Singapore with neighbouring Indonesian province of Riau Islands, and the Malaysian state of Johor (regular ferry services to Tioman Island were discontinued late in 2003). Singapore has four ferry terminals which handle international ferries: HarbourFront (formerly World Trade Centre) near the southern part of the Central Business District, Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal on the East Coast, as well as Changi Ferry Terminal and Changi Point Ferry Terminal, at the eastern extremity of the island.

Modest-sized cruise ships can use the HarbourFront terminal. (HarbourFront and Tanah Merah are managed and operated by the Singapore Cruise Centre.) Beyond customs and immigration, the terminal links to the HarbourFront shopping mall having many small shops. It is in-turn connected to Vivo, a larger mall with larger stores and a food court. Both malls offer access to the versatile and growing underground rail system (MRT). Both malls have ATMs.

Larger ships must use the commercial port facilities toward the west of the island. (please develop)

Getting to/away from the ferry terminals:

* HarbourFront FT: Located next to HarbourFront MRT station.
* Tanah Merah FT: Get off at Bedok MRT station and catch bus No. 35 to ferry terminal.
* Changi Point FT: Take bus No. 2, 29 or 59 to Changi Village Bus Terminal and walk to the ferry terminal.
