Here's how you can dodge the entry fees:
Walking, instead of taking any transport, is the cheapest way to get into Sentosa, and a great way to clock your daily steps at that. On a good day, it’ll take you no longer than 15 minutes to cross the Sentosa Boardwalk. Sheltered, ventilated and equipped with travelators, the Sentosa Boardwalk leads you directly from VivoCity (exit near Paradise Teochew restaurant) to the heart of Resorts World Sentosa.
Heading to Sentosa for a wedding or staycation? Remember to have the invitation or confirmation email at the ready. For those travelling by road, present your invitation or confirmation slip to get your entrance fee waived at the gantry. And for those travelling by Sentosa Express (monorail), simply present the invitation or confirmation slip to the service staff at the VivoCity station for free entry.
And if you're taking a Grab car, taxi or private hire into or out of Sentosa, do take note of these drop-off and pick-up points!

If Sentosa is your happy place and you find yourself driving there all the time, the Islander membership offers significant cost savings. This membership provides unlimited access to the island via the Sentosa Gantry (drive-in) for a full year. At just S$25 for a new membership and S$20 for renewals, it quickly pays for itself with waived entry fees.
The standard membership covers entry for one car and one person, making it ideal for solo trips. However, families can opt for the Family membership at S$50, which covers up to four immediate family members. This allows everyone to enjoy Sentosa’s attractions and amenities without incurring individual entry fees.

Sentosa provides a range of parking options with varying rates and locations. But if you’re seeking the most affordable option, your best bet would be the Sentosa carparks (Beach Station, Imbiah, Palawan Beach, Tanjong Beach and Sentosa Cove Village). Each of them offers a flat rate of S$1.20 per hour during off-peak hours (7am to 5pm). This is a great option if you're planning to spend the day soaking up the sun and enjoying the beach amenities.
The only one you’ll need to keep an eye out for is the RWS carpark – the first hour alone will cost you a whopping $7!
If you frequent Sentosa or visit at least twice a year, consider applying for Sentosa’s Islander membership — it's free!
