Yacht charter in Thailand

Crewed luxury charter

Yacht Charter Thailand

Andaman Sea & Phang Nga

The Andaman coast is a crewed-charter dreamscape of limestone karsts rising straight from warm, jade water. Sea-kayak into hidden lagoons, anchor off empty beaches and let the crew navigate the maze of islands between Phuket and the Similans.

Thailand's Andaman coast is one of Asia's great cruising grounds, and Phuket makes it easy to reach. Sheer limestone karsts rise straight out of warm, jade-green water; between them lie hidden 'hong' lagoons — collapsed cave systems open to the sky — that you enter by tender or sea-kayak at the right state of the tide. The sailing is gentle, the anchorages are warm, and the scenery is genuinely surreal.

Phang Nga Bay holds the karsts and secret lagoons; Phi Phi and Krabi bring the iconic cliffs and clear snorkelling water; and a longer passage out to the protected Similan Islands rewards you with some of the finest diving in Asia. Because the dry Andaman season runs November to April, it slots neatly into the northern winter alongside the Caribbean and Maldives.

Best time to charter

November to April — the dry season, with settled seas and reliably clear water on the Andaman side.
