Here are complete details of Prohibited and Restricted Areas in Singapore Waters
The Maritime Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) has a massive job of managing all aspects of the port waters of Singapore, the MPA prohibits all vessels from entering the restricted areas in Singapore waters below for any purpose, except with the prior approval of the Port Master. MPA is supported by The Police Coast Guard (PCG) conducts 24-hour round-the-clock patrols in Singapore’s territorial waters from its four regional bases, the PCG is also responsible for maintaining law and order on most of Singapore’s islands.
Boaters cannot anchor in a channel or a fairway and are not supposed to drift along either as you’ll be impeding the safe passage of vessels & ships in transit. Beaching is not allowed anywhere in Singapore, you’ll find signs at East Coast Park, Changi, Pasir Ris, and Sentosa to inform local authorities of anyone approaching the beach from a vessel at sea. Unfortunately, this has resulted in the list of places you can’t go being double the amount of where you can go!
