With our travel plans still on hold, luxe boat and yacht rentals are an excellent way to leave the island and feel a sense of freedom and escape without going very far. Ocean lovers may only be able to explore Singapore's waters for now, but that doesn't mean we're only limited to the beaches at Sentosa or East Coast Park. It's entirely possible to explore the unchartered territory of Singapore's offshore islands while remaining safe and following social distancing rules. How a boat it? (#sorrynotsorry)
