Consider a chartered yacht vacation to the beautiful, exotic islands off Thailand. You are guaranteed an unforgettable adventure if you sign up for a charter vacation in this far-flung locale. Imagine the opportunity to experience Asian culture while being pampered aboard a private yacht. The combination seems too good to be true, but we promise it's possible!
First stop: the Phi Phi Islands. Then it's off to the limestone cliffs and hidden caves of Phang Nga Bay. Next check out Krabi, which is on the west coast of Thailand and popular for its rock climbing opportunities. Make sure to take advantage of water sports in the area too.
Use the yacht's scuba or snorkeling gear, water skis, and wakeboards. Discover the snorkeling sites and secret coves off Thailand and then swim to shore to frolic on the beach. Once on land, there's plenty to do. Ask the yacht's crew which of these would be best for your group:
Nightlife on Bangla Road/Patong Beach
Safari in Khao Sok National Park
Trek through Khao Lak
Shopping excursion in Old Phuket Town
Visit to Wat Chalong Temple
Phuket, Thailand's largest island, is quite popular with yachts. As your yacht leaves Laem Phrao Marina (on northeastern corner of Phuket), it is advisable to keep a watchful eye on the passing scenery. The serene sea surface contrasts sharply with the jutting stone masses that seem perfectly natural in this oddly beautiful space. It's the yacht captain's job to guide you safely through this gorgeous maze of rock formations.
In Phuket you will get a chance to see large motor yachts with fancy salons and entertaining areas or a small, sleek sailing yachts with modern features and soft interior palettes. Enjoy the accommodations on the yacht you've chartered and make absolutely certain that you let the chef incorporate local delicacies in your week's menu.
Soak up the colonial architecture. Go on a jungly trek. Check out Wat Chalong's intricate walls and absorb the essence of Phuket's spiritual center. Hit up Bangla Road if you want to be shocked and amazed. (This is not your typical tourist bar and club scene!)
