At a time in the mid nineties, when the marine leisure scene in Singapore consisted only of modest traditional yacht clubs and basic
boatels in the backwaters, Raffles Marina was born and pioneered the advent of a new genre of modern marinas and country clubs.
It officially opened in 1994 and became the First Five Gold Anchor rated marina in the Asia-Pacific region. By extending the reach
of its cruising and marine conservation programmes, throughout much of Aseanarean, it also became the First Bluewater marina,
by 1999.

CONSERVATION
AWARENESS
SIGNATURE CRUISES
Raffles Marina is proud of its ‘green’ orientation. It
supports and provides leadership in the conservation
of reefs and the marine environment and is a major
partner in the Singapore Reef and Marine Conservation
Committee.
DESTINATION CRUISES
Raffles Marina has made a name for itself, organising short,
medium and long range cruises. Our flotillas to Phuket,
Anambas and the Riau Archipelago are legendary.
With cruising previously confined to the east coast of
Malaysia, Raffles Marina has been credited with opening up
the north-western and southern theatres for cruising.
TO BLUE WATERS AND
GREENER EARTH
Planetary Coral Reef Foundation (PCRF) is a project of
the Biosphere Foundation. Since its inception in 1991,
PCRF has pursued an unprecedented global mission to
preserve coral reefs through innovative programs in
science, education and technology. Raffles Marina has
been collaborating since 2006, working towards the goal
of coral reef conservation in the Asean Sea.
In the spirit of this collaboration, PCRF became Raffles
Marina’s “Club At Sea” and every two months, discoveries
are
communicated
via
Nautique,
Raffles
