Sail yourself happy in the Land of Smiles
Phuket Island is located in the south of Thailand in the Andaman Sea, one of the most beautiful sailing areas in the world, with hundreds of idyllic undiscovered islands. It’s altogether quite stunning, with pristine deserted beaches and crystal clear waters. Most notable is the spectacular PhangNga Bay with its amazing limestone rocks rising up from the sea, made famous by the James Bond movie “The Man with The Golden Gun”.
Our Thailand catamaran cruise is the ideal way to explore and discover this amazing area of natural beauty in idyllic sailing conditions. Our luxurious Dream 60 catamaran accommodates up to 12 guests in 6 comfortable cabins. There is a spacious saloon and dining area and an ample sun deck to enjoy the sailing and sunshine.
The crew are attentive, discreet and very knowledgeable about the area. The levels of service are excellent and each day they prepare breakfast and flavoursome lunch and dinner, with fresh local ingredients and plenty of local cuisine – it’s all absolutely scrumptious. The daily routine involves a swim before breakfast then, sailing on to a wonderful new location, with time for more swimming and snorkelling, perhaps some sea kayaking, and new friends. Live the dream and sail with us in these waters – it’s an experience you will never forget!
