Marina South Pier, opened in 2006, is a modern ferry terminal located in the Marina South planning area of Singapore. It was built to replace the historic Clifford Pier and serves as an important maritime gateway for ferry services to nearby Southern Islands such as St. John's Island and Kusu Island. The pier is part of the larger Marina South precinct, which has undergone extensive land reclamation and redevelopment since the 1990s, transforming from a leisure area with parks and entertainment venues into a vibrant urban waterfront. Marina South itself is strategically positioned near major landmarks like Gardens by the Bay and the Marina Bay Sands integrated resort. The pier supports Singapore's maritime industry and tourism by facilitating passenger movement and recreational boating activities. Its proximity to key transport infrastructure, including future MRT stations, enhances accessibility for both locals and tourists. The area around Marina South Pier continues to evolve as part of Singapore’s Greater Southern Waterfront development plan, aiming to create a high-density, car-lite residential and commercial district.
