At One°15 Marina Nirup Island find pristine sandy beaches, crystal clear waters, beach-front villas and more

Avid boaters have a new reason to cheer because One°15 Marina Nirup Island has officially opened.

The past weekend (July 8) saw the official opening of the island, hosting over 500 VIPs and boating enthusiasts including the Governor of Riau Islands Mr Ansar Ahmad, Indonesian Minister of Transportation Mr Budi Karya Sumadi, and the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary H.E. Suryo Pratomo.

“As the marina sets sail into full operation, we anticipate a consistent influx of boaters, charterers and private yachts seeking exceptional amenities and new experiences,” chairman and CEO of SUTL Enterprise Arthur Tay shared during his speech at the launch event.

The idyllic island covers over 150,000 sqm and is only eight nautical miles south of Sentosa. Located in Riau Islands Province, between Singapore and Batam, One°15 Marina Nirup Island is home to a range of exciting activities and amenities, making it the perfect destination for a quick getaway from the hustle and bustle of life.

There are two ways to visit the island: by hiring or using a private yacht, or taking a ferry. Taking a private boat will take approximately 20 minutes while ferry services take 1.5 hours with a transit through Batam. You wouldn’t have to worry about finding a dock on the island as the marina also offers 44 berths, catering to yachts of up to 150 feet. 

Once you’ve arrived on the serene island, don’t forget to take in the stunning views of the neighbouring islands, its crystal clear waters and pristine sandy beaches. There’s much to see and do on the island—sit along the coastline and watch superyachts bobbling on the azure waters or visit the clubhouse restaurant and dig into a hearty meal. Explore the island too and find its abundance of flora and fauna from towering palm trees to tropical birds. A luxurious escape from home surely doesn’t get any better than this.
