Desaru daycation packages


Hands up if you’re experiencing massive wanderlust, but don’t have enough ALs to go on a full vacation. We come bearing good news: now, you can head to Malaysia and back in a day – because Desaru Coast has launched 5 different daycation packages from Singapore. Plus, the most affordable one starts at just RM398 (~S$123).

Taking into account the new Desaru Link Ferry services that take you straight there, it’s been made even more accessible so you can get there and back in a jiffy. The packages also include return ferry trips, so the responsibility of factoring how and how much to get there is off your hands. 


For thrill-seekers: Desaru Coast Adventure Waterpark

One of Desaru Coast’s most popular attractions is Desaru Coast Adventure Waterpark, which has over 20 exciting rides. Of which is Kraken’s Revenge, a thrilling water roller coaster, and the Tempest slide, a large funnel that will have you gripping the float handles for your life. Trust us, it’s worth making a trip down to Desaru – even if just for a day. 

With the Splash Out Day package (RM398, ~S$123), you can start your daycay with a splash. The price includes a 1-day pass to the waterpark (U.P. RM245, ~S$77 per adult) and a return ferry ticket (U.P. S$118). That way, you get to save around S$72 for a trip – without having to worry about booking transportation separately.

Alternatively, you can make your quick getaway a fruitful one with a trip to the Desaru Fruit Farm. This 180-acre land has guided farm tours to different parts such as the crocodile farm and agricultural gallery. This is great for families with young kids or if you need a breath of fresh air. You can also purchase fresh fruits, juice, and dehydrated fruit snacks from the fruit farm.

The Out-in-Nature Day Fruit Farm tour package (RM$418, ~S$129) will save you more than S$10. This deal includes a return ferry ticket, high tea at Big Easy Bar & Grill, as well as a fruit farm tour – inclusive of a lunch and transfer to and from the hotel.

Besides the sun, sand, and sea, how about the biodiversity? The JungleWalla mangrove at Desaru is home to a flourishing biodiversity of animals like gibbons, monitor lizards, and kingfishers. You can look out for Desaru’s wildlife while birdwatching, kayaking or – for a more leisurely pace – on a river cruise along the Sedili fishing village.

The perfect daycation package for nature lovers and adventurers would probably be the Out-in-Nature Mangrove tour package (RM598, ~S$184), which comes with a 3-hour guided tour at Sedili, return ferry from Singapore, and a 3-course lunch at Big Easy Bar & Grill.

For aspiring tai tais: Brunch & golfing packages to treat yourself

For those who want to live the tai tai life on a budget, there are other packages to suit your fancy. We still think they are a pretty good deal, though. Check out the Saturday Brunch Day by The South China Sea (RM568, ~ S$175), where you can enjoy free-flow dishes at the Sea.Fire.Salt restaurant at the Anantara Resort. Besides a return ferry ticket, you’ll also get access to the beach at the resort. For the full experience, you can also book a room at Anantara Desaru Coast Resort & Villas and stay a day or 2.

If you’d rather golf than laze around on the beach, here’s a day trip that is a hole-in-one. It’s called the Golfer’s Day Out package (RM688 ~S$213) and it comes with a return ferry ticket, 1 round of 18-hole golf, and a hearty 3-course lunch at Big Easy Bar & Grill.
