SING YONG (POSSIBLY)
Why dive here
With 263+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue-spotted stingrays, dugongs, giant moray eels, seahorses and sea turtles - SING YONG (POSSIBLY) offers some of Southern Islands's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest May, June, November.
The Sing Yong, sitting at 21 metres, is one of Singapore’s more intriguing wreck dives. This motor vessel went down in 1981, and time underwater has given it a character you don't always find on younger wrecks. We often see lionfish tucked into crevices, their spines fanned out, and schools of fusiliers swirl around the superstructure, thick enough to momentarily block the light. While it’s not an intact museum piece, you can still trace the outline of the vessel and imagine its journey. It’s a good spot for divers looking for something a bit different from a reef dive, offering a chance to explore a piece of local maritime history that’s now home to quite a few fish.
