By boat
Tourist-oriented bumboats cruise the Singapore River, offering point-to-point rides starting from $3 and cruises with nice views of the CBD skyscraper skyline starting from $13. You can also take a ferry ($15 round-trip) to Singapore's largely uninhabited Southern Islands (Kusu Island, St. John Island and Sisters Island etc.) for a picnic and lagoon swimming, but do remember to bring along food and drinks as there are no shops on the islands. Peak season for Kusu Island is the annual Taoist pilgrimage during the 9th Lunar month.
Bumboats also shuttle passengers from Changi Village to Pulau Ubin ($2.50 one-way), a small island off Singapore's northeast coast which is about as close as Singapore gets to unhurried rural living.
