Map of the Singapore Strait.
The 'Singapore Strait' (or 'Straits of Singapore'; ) is a 105 kilometer long, 16 kilometer wide
strait between the
Strait of Malacca in the west and the
South China Sea in the east.
Singapore is on the north of the
channel and the
Riau Islands are on the south. It includes
Keppel Harbour and many small
islands. The strait provides the deepwater passage to the
Port of Singapore, which makes it very busy.
