All you need to know about one of the most beautiful sailing areas in the world
Its Name
The island of Phuket has long been misunderstood. Firstly, the ‘h’ is silent. Ahem. And secondly, Phuket doesn’t feel like an island at all. It’s so huge (the biggest in Thailand) that you rarely get the sense that you’re surrounded by water, which is probably the reason why Ko (meaning ‘island’) was dropped from its name. Dubbed the ‘pearl of the Andaman’ by marketing execs, this is Thailand’s original flavour of tailor-made fun in the sun.
Patong & Activities
The island’s sin city of Patong is the biggest town and busiest beach. But ultimately, the island’s affinity for luxury far outshines its other stereotypes. Jet-setters come through in droves, getting pummelled during swanky spa sessions and swigging sundowners at one of the many fashion-forward nightspots or on their rented yacht. And you don’t have to be an heiress to tap into Phuket’s trendy to-do list. It is hard to say farewell with deep-sea diving, high-end dining, and white beaches all within reach.
Cabin Charters
Explore the numerous islands and reefs that are set in this abundant and vibrant crystal blue Indian Ocean.
Snorkel or dive on many of the reefs that Phuket has to offer and discover the many wonders that lie in the underwater world. Scuba diving can be organized on the spot with the local diving clubs.
Our partners’ yachts provide comfortable accommodation in double cabins with a private bathroom, delicious food and dedicated services provided by the Crew.
There is also an optional excursion package that you should try. It includes dinner on the beach, elephant trek and massage. You will also go for a kayak ride and access the “Long Tail boat” tour to James Bond Island and Gypsy Village.
The deck is the perfect location to sit and relax and watch the world go by whilst enjoying a long & cooling cocktail and taking in the sunset and the ocean’s breeze. You will be offered different menus every day, by the cook. There will be fresh fruits, fresh fish, and meats transformed into excellent mouth-watering meals.
