The take

Bumboats, small motorboats run privately rather than by NParks, leave Changi Point for Pulau Ubin once about 12 people are aboard. Agree the fare before you board, since a half-empty boat or an after-hours crossing can cost more.

Good to know

Typically S$4 cash a person each way with about 12 aboard, plus S$2 for a bicycle

Boats run on demand, roughly 6am–7pm

If you're stuck on Ubin, call 1800-471-7300

Finding it: Changi Point Ferry Terminal, 51 Lorong Bekukong. Have cash ready for the fare

What if there is no bumboat back from Pulau Ubin?

Call the NParks helpline on 1800-471 7300. Bumboats usually run on demand from 6am to 7pm and leave once 12 passengers are aboard, but operators may leave with fewer, or outside those hours, at a higher fare agreed with the passengers. Confirm the fare before every departure, and book ahead if you plan to return late.

Where can I eat after getting off the bumboat on Pulau Ubin?

NParks lists four restaurants on Ubin, two near the jetty. Encik Hassan's shop sells homemade Malay dishes such as mee rebus, mee siam and nasi lemak (check it is open), and Cheong Lian Yuen serves seafood with a small alfresco area. Shops in Ubin Village sell snacks, drinks and desserts like chendol and ice kacang. See Chek Jawa for the island's main walk.
