There are still people living on the sea in various parts of Singapore.
However, most of them are elderly, so they may not be around in 20 years.
Sometimes we meet at the pier, or we rent a yacht or kayak and go to their homes to say hello.

Alternatively, there are tours available that visit these houses, so you could go on one of those.
However, there is a risk that no one will be home, and you’ll end up passing by without seeing anything, as there are only “unreliable tours” available.
