Glam Catamaran For The Ultimate Treat

If you want to treat yourself and feel like you're on a jaunt in the Greek islands, take this Sailing Catamaran out to the Southern Islands. We love lounging on the deck nets, and particularly love that complimentary BBQ services are available. So get your favourite food from Huber's, and get the crew to fire it up! Lots of watersports gear like kayaks and paddleboards will keep the kids happy while the adults enjoy the day out. đŸ·

Big Catamaran Perfect for Celebrations

If you’re planning a big family birthday, this is a really fun one! This spacious catamaran fits up to 33 guests. It includes two air-conditioned cabins and two bathrooms, so grandparents and little ones have somewhere comfortable to retreat from the sun. Everyone else can jump straight into the water with the complimentary kayak, paddleboard, floating mat and snorkels!

The crew are also experienced anglers, so you can add fishing if that’s your family’s thing. Top tip: let them know it’s a birthday and they'll have a surprise prepared for you!

Superb Value Yacht With Amazing Crew

This is one of our most popular yachts - just look at the rave reviews! While not the fanciest yacht (it's cosy and doesn't have AC), it makes up for that by having the most amazing crew, with a ton of heart, PLUS it's the most amazing value-for-money.

We would highly recommend this for a family day out, or you can bring your best family friends along too! Try your hand at fishing and there's an electric grill onboard to cook your catch. Bonus: It's pet-friendly so your furbaby is very welcome! đŸ¶

4

Yacht with lots of Water Activities

This is the yacht to go for if you want lots of water activities, so you don't need to choose. It's super affordable for a 5-hour experience, has ample room to move about and our favourite thing? It has a wide range of fun water activities like snorkeling gear, floats, a paddleboard, and a giant floating mat to keep the active adults and kids happy!

5

Good-Value, All-Inclusive Yacht

This Seek Sophie favourite is a great pick for larger families, especially if you don’t want the hassle of organising food. It fits up to 31 guests and includes a BBQ spread with satay, prawns, chicken and fish, all grilled for you by the crew. You’ll cruise to Lazarus Island, where the family can swim, kayak, paddleboard or lounge on the water mat, while anyone staying dry can relax in the air-conditioned cabin or shaded outdoor areas.

Sail Away on on Elegant Catamaran

This is one of our favourite yachts and a real treat to be on. One of our favourite things about it is her billowing sails. We love lying on her huge deck nets, with the massive sails gently billowing in the wind above us, feeling our cares melt away. Top tip: Captain Martjin is an amazing cook - so do bring your favourite cuts of meat for him to BBQ on board.

7

Cruise on a Vintage Junk Boat

This is for families who want a yacht day with a little more character! You’ll cruise to the Southern Islands on a rare vintage Hong Kong junk boat, with 5 unhurried hours to kayak, paddleboard, play on the water mat or simply flop onto a beanbag on the spacious deck. There’s also a BBQ grill onboard, so bring your favourite food and turn it into a family cookout at sea. With room for up to 22 guests, it’s great for big family gatherings. Bonus: It's also pet-friendly!

Discover Secret Fishing Spots on this Yacht

If your kids are curious about fishing, this is the yacht we’d pick. 🎣 This fishing charter is led by experienced anglers who’ll teach complete beginners how to cast, reel in their catch and identify the wild local fish they find. All the rods, bait and tackle are provided, so you just need to turn up! You’ll spend around two hours fishing, followed by two hours grilling your catch on the onboard BBQ—possibly the freshest family lunch you’ll have in Singapore. P.S. Kids as young as 5 have caught fish here!

Get IG-worthy shots on this Great-Value Catamaran

This is one of the most popular yachts, for good reason. It's not the fanciest catamaran, but it's a catamaran no less - with IG-worthy deck nets and at a more affordable price point. Lounge on the beautiful deck nets on the way to Lazarus Island or hit the karaoke machine while sailing. Fish, kayak, or snorkel when docked at Lazarus, or snap away at the many photo opportunities you’ll have on this IG-worthy yacht!

Spacious Glam Catamaran for a Treat Day Out

If you’re looking to treat the whole family, this is one of the newest and most spacious catamarans around. Built in 2025, it has two decks with plenty of sheltered and open-air lounging space, so it’s great for bringing several families together.

The kids will love the water mat, paddleboard and underwater scooter (basically the closest thing to swimming like a dolphin 🐬). There’s also a huge 100-inch screen for movies or karaoke, an automatic mahjong table, free-flow soft drinks and towels after your swim.
