Getting to the Anambas Islands

Singapore to Batam – Reach Batam by ferry boat

Batam is an Indonesian island located only 20km far from Singapore & 15km far from Johor in Malaysia.
From Singapore, many companies offer daily ferries to Batam via various terminals. It’s an easy 45 min ferry journey to reach Batam island.

The easiest way to travel from Singapore to Batam is to take the ferry from terminals “Tanah Merah” or “Singapore HarbourFront” to “Batam Center Ferry Terminal”. We recommend the following ferry companies: Majestic Ferry (daily departures every hour from 8:10 to 21:20), BatamFast (daily departures every hour from 7:40 to 21:40); Horizon Ferry (daily departures every hour from 8:15 to 21:15). Ferry prices vary between 15 USD to 30 USD/ per way per person depending on the ferry company.

**There is a 1h time difference between Singapore & Batam, Indonesia (1h less for Batam).

Once arrived at Batam Center Ferry Terminal and your Indonesian immigration procedures completed, you have to take a taxi to Batam Airport (Hang Nadim Airport, BTH), which is at 10km/ 20 min drive from the ferry terminal. (Taxi price around 10 USD maximum)
