The earliest sailing from Singapore leaves at 08:00 Singapore time (Sindo Ferry). Last daily ferries from Batam to Singapore: Harbour Bay 20:30 WIB (Horizon Fast Ferry); Batam Centre 20:35 WIB (Majestic Fast Ferry); Sekupang 20:30 WIB (Sindo Ferry).

How long is the ferry from Singapore to Batam?
About 45 minutes from HarbourFront to Harbour Bay (per the official Harbour Bay Downtown site); other routes take about an hour. Batam is one hour behind Singapore, so a 9:00 am departure arrives around 8:45 am Batam time.
