Explore disappearing Kelongs on a boat - a unique Singapore adventure!
Instead of just eating seafood at a fancy restaurant, visit a traditional kelong and see how it’s caught! Before modern fish farms, Singapore’s fishermen lived in kelongs—traditional wooden houses built on stilts over the sea. These floating villages are disappearing, but you can still visit one on a boat trip. See how fishermen use age-old techniques to catch fish, and contrast it with Singapore’s modern fish farms. It’s a rare chance to see Singapore’s past and future side by side.This speedboat adventure whisks you away to uncover the hidden world of Singapore's coastline. Join Robin, your seafaring guide, for a fascinating glimpse into the past and future of fishing. You'll zip past rustic kelongs (think floating fish farms!) and hear tales of old-school fishing. End off your day chilling out at a one-of-a-kind floating restaurant! Unwind with a sea breeze, play a little Carrom (a classic board game), or just relax and enjoy the views.Why kelongs are importantSingapore's floating fish farms (kelongs) are a vanishing part of our heritage, yet they offer a window into the old ways.

A Bangkok bike ride ignited something in Robin and Daniel – a hunger to share Singapore's lesser-known wonders. From a Chinatown shophouse, armed with passion and a touch of grit, they began curating authentic experiences. Little did they know that this leap of faith would ignite an adventure of a lifetime!
