Can children join a kayak rental at Marina Bay?
Yes, from age 7, but a child must share a boat with an adult aged 18 or over. The Singapore Canoe Federation rents sit-on-top kayaks at Bayfront Promenade from S$27 for an hour. Read the terms and conditions before you book, as the federation asks you to.

Can I rent a racing kayak at Marina Bay?
Not through this rental. The federation's racing boats are listed at MacRitchie Reservoir and need a 1 star certificate and prior experience with sprint boats. At Marina Bay the rental is a sit-on-top kayak with no certificate stated, which suits a first paddle.
