Why Choose a Thailand Flotilla?
Intermediate Flotilla Sailing – Level 1+ Tidal
Tidal Navigation
Excellent Sailing Breezes In Protected Waters
Visit The Phi Phi Islands and “James Bond” Island
An exotic adventure visually and culturally.
Our newest addition to the Seafarer flotilla portfolio is another exclusive flotilla option for those that yearn to explore beyond the Mediterranean whilst still getting the support that all Seafarer flotillas receive. Explore the best of Phang Nga Bay, visiting Ko Khao Phing Kan, the island made famous by the James Bond film “The man with the golden gun”. Sailing further south sees us visit other much photographed and filmed locations, so for movie buffs, there are some great sights to be seen, including the Phi Phi islands, the iconic image from the film “The Beach”, as well as Koh Lanta and Koh Pu, with their spectacular beaches.
Thailand has so much to offer, and its warm and friendly people are keen for us to experience the culture and cuisine of this beautiful part of Asia. Sailing here is tidal – a great opportunity to brush up on some skills that may be lying dormant in your locker!
