This guide is part of Terris Recommends, my independently researched, hands-on picks of the best local businesses and services in Singapore. Every recommendation is researched and ranked by me.

A yacht rental in Singapore is the celebration upgrade people assume is out of reach, and then are surprised to find is not, once you split it across a group. I have looked into these closely for birthdays and hen parties, and the market really comes down to one choice: do you buy per-pax tickets on a shared cruise, or charter a whole yacht for your group. Get that right and the rest is easy.

Charters are priced per trip, with weekday rates noticeably cheaper than weekends, while ticketed cruises charge per head. On top of that sits the question that decides the real cost: whether you can bring your own food and drinks, because a no-corkage charter is far cheaper than paying bar prices. I will decode the models, flag the BYO rules, then give you my picks across budgets and group sizes.

This is part of my Terris Recommends Celebrations series, and a companion to my guides on bachelorette ideas, bachelor party ideas and party venues in Singapore.

01

What I look for in a yacht charter

Beyond the photos, here is what actually decides the cost and the day.

  • The pricing model. A per-pax ticketed cruise is cheapest for a couple or a small group joining a shared sailing. A whole-yacht charter is priced per trip, so it gets cheaper per head the bigger your group. Work out your numbers first.
  • Corkage and BYO. Many charters let you bring your own food and drinks, and the best say so with no corkage. This is the single biggest saving on a party yacht, since drinks at bar prices add up fast. Always ask.
  • Weekday versus weekend. Weekend and public-holiday rates carry a clear premium. If your group is flexible, a weekday charter can save hundreds.
  • Boat type and pax cap. Catamarans are the most stable and spacious for a party, sailing yachts feel more premium, and motor yachts are quicker between islands. Match the pax cap to your group, with a little room to spare.
  • Route and extras. Most charters cruise the Southern Islands and anchor near Lazarus or St John's for a swim. Check whether water toys, a BBQ or catering are included or add-ons.

One tip: confirm exactly who provides ice, coolers and a sound system. Small gaps like these are easy to fix if you know in advance and annoying if you do not.

How much does it cost to rent a yacht in Singapore?

Cost depends on the model, the day and the boat. These are the going rates I see in 2026.

Charter typeTypical priceGood to know
Per-pax dinner cruiseFrom around S$119 per personCheapest, you join a shared sailing
Small catamaran (4 hrs, ~10 pax)From around S$649 to S$800Weekdays cheaper, BYO common
Large party catamaran (4 hrs)Around S$1,200 to S$1,700Holds roughly 18 to 42 guests
Superyacht or big groupFrom around S$799, on quoteUp to about 120 guests

Split a whole-yacht charter across the group and it often lands around S$120 to S$250 a head before food. Extra hours, catering and a BBQ add to the base, so confirm the all-in figure and whether you can bring your own drinks.

Next: 1. The Yacht Club

1. The Yacht Club

The Yacht Club is where I would start if you want maximum choice. It runs a broker model across more than forty yachts, mostly motor yachts and flybridge cruisers plus catamarans, so instead of taking whatever one operator has free, you match the boat to your group and budget from a single point of contact.

Pricing is quoted directly from the yacht owners with no hidden costs, and there is a deep menu of catering add-ons, including halal BBQ. For a party where the right boat matters, the range is the advantage.

Next: 2. Ximula Sail
05

2. Ximula Sail

Ximula is my premium pick, and the one I mention in my bachelorette guide. It is a genuine sailing catamaran rather than a motor yacht, so the experience is quieter and feels a notch more special, and it takes up to 18 guests across three cabins.

Pricing is published and honest, from around S$1,200 for a weekday four-hour charter, and there are water toys like kayaks and sea scooters onboard. For a classy day on the water with real sailing, it is my favourite.

3. White Sails

White Sails is my pick for transparent, BYO-friendly value. They run three catamarans holding 16 to 18 guests, with clearly published tiered pricing from around S$649 for a five-hour weekday private charter, so there is no haggling to work out what you will pay.

Crucially they have an explicit no-corkage policy, so you bring your own cooked food, drinks and alcohol, which keeps a party affordable. Their sunrise and sunset charters to Lazarus are a signature. Note that the cheapest boat is older, so pick the tier that suits.

4. Yacht BBQ

Yacht BBQ, run by the Sea Friends team, has the strongest verified rating in this field, a full five stars across around seventy Google reviews. They are owner-operators with a broad mixed fleet of motor yachts and power catamarans, and they specialise in BBQ and dinner cruises.

The owner-operator model shows in the hospitality and the marina know-how, with more than five hundred charters behind them. For a relaxed BBQ party on the water with people who clearly care, they are a great pick.

5. Valencia Yachts

Valencia is my pick for a large group or a milestone. Alongside a fleet of Leopard catamarans, they operate a 128-foot monohull superyacht that takes up to 120 day guests, which is rare here and ideal for a corporate gala or a big celebration.

Pricing starts from around S$799, and you can bring your own food or add catering, with crews that will help with birthday decor and a BBQ. When the guest list is long, they are the ones who can actually fit everyone.

6. Kingdom Yacht Charters

Kingdom is my pick for a mid-to-large party that wants space and BYO. Their boat is a 54-foot triple-deck power catamaran taking up to 42 guests, which gives everyone room to spread out across the decks rather than crowd one cabin.

Pricing is published, from around S$1,388 for a weekday four-hour charter, and you can bring your own food and drinks at no extra charge, with BBQ packages and watersports available. For a bigger group party, it is a strong, transparent choice.

7. YachtCruiseSG

YachtCruiseSG is the cheapest way onto a yacht, because you buy per-pax tickets on a shared cruise rather than chartering the whole boat. Their BBQ dinner cruise runs around S$119 a head for a couple of hours around the Southern Islands, with drinks included, which is perfect for a couple or a small group.

They also do private charters and speedboat trips if you want to scale up. For a taste of the yacht experience without a big group to split the cost, they are the easy entry point.

8. Sailuxo

Sailuxo is my pick when the food matters as much as the sailing. Backed by a food-and-beverage group, they put an executive chef onboard, so instead of a self-catered BBQ you get proper cooked-to-order dining, which lifts a corporate event or a special celebration.

They offer tiers from a no-frills self-catered option up to a two-chef luxurious package, cruising from Sentosa to Lazarus and St John's. For a foodie party on the water, they are the standout.

9. Wanderlust Adventures

Wanderlust is the pick for a group that wants more than a party loop. Alongside Southern Islands charters they run join-in yacht fishing and multi-day regional expeditions to places like the Anambas and Lingga islands, so they suit an adventurous crew rather than a straightforward celebration.

They offer BBQ add-ons and both vegetarian and non-vegetarian menus, with the broadest itinerary range here. For a fishing trip or a proper sea adventure, they are worth a look.

10. Minmed Cruise

Minmed Cruise rounds out the list as a budget-friendly, no-fuss option. It runs a catamaran to Lazarus with clear, published fixed pricing, around S$700 for ten guests on a weekday four-hour charter, which makes it easy to plan a small family or friends outing.

It is a simple, value-led choice rather than a party specialist, but for a relaxed day at Lazarus without complicated pricing, it does the job well.

How I put this list together

I looked at the pricing model and real per-head cost, the BYO and corkage policy, boat type and pax caps, routes and extras, and the weight of genuine customer reviews. I spread the list from per-pax cruises to superyachts so there is a fit for a couple, a big party and a corporate group alike.

Prices and details are checked when I publish and revisited as things change. Always confirm the route, the pax cap, the weekday or weekend rate and the BYO policy directly with the operator before you book.

15

Can you bring your own food and alcohol on a yacht charter in Singapore?

On most whole-yacht charters, yes, and the best operators allow it with no corkage, which is the single biggest way to keep a party affordable since you supply drinks at retail prices. White Sails and Kingdom are explicit about no-corkage BYO. Per-pax ticketed cruises usually include set food and drinks instead, so you cannot bring your own. Always confirm the BYO and corkage policy before booking, as it can swing the total cost significantly.

16

How many people can a party yacht in Singapore hold?

Most catamarans and yachts used for parties hold around 10 to 18 day guests, larger party catamarans take up to about 42, and a superyacht like the one Valencia operates can hold up to 120. There is usually a difference between the cruising capacity and the maximum day-charter capacity, so give your operator your exact headcount. Booking a boat with a little room to spare is more comfortable than filling one to its limit.

Next: What is the difference between a sailing yacht, motor yacht and catamaran?
17

What is the difference between a sailing yacht, motor yacht and catamaran?

A sailing yacht uses sails and feels quieter and more premium, but heels over and moves slower. A motor yacht is powered by engines, so it is faster between islands and has a more level deck. A catamaran has two hulls, which makes it the most stable and spacious, and the best all-round choice for a party because guests can move around comfortably and there is plenty of deck space. For most celebrations in Singapore, a catamaran is what I would pick.

Next: How far in advance should I book a yacht in Singapore?
18

How far in advance should I book a yacht in Singapore?

Book one to two months ahead for weekends, public holidays and sunset slots, which are the first to go, especially in the cooler, drier months. A weekday charter can sometimes be arranged with a couple of weeks notice. Booking earlier also lets you lock in the specific boat, confirm the route and arrange any catering or BBQ, and it protects you if the weather forces a reschedule.

The best yacht rental in Singapore comes down to your group size and whether you can bring your own drinks, so settle those first. Buy per-pax tickets with YachtCruiseSG for a small group, charter a no-corkage catamaran like White Sails or Kingdom for a party, and look at Valencia's superyacht for a big celebration. Split across the group, a day on the water is far more affordable than it looks.

Whatever you pick, confirm the route, the pax cap, the weekday or weekend rate and the BYO policy before you pay, and you have got one of the most memorable celebrations going.
