If you are looking to explore a stunning destination by charter yacht that is not yet overflowing with tourists, then look no further. Thailand offers all this and more.
The cruising grounds that border the striking and mysterious Kingdom of Thailand are absolutely spectacular and, in recent years, have been rising in popularity as a new charter destination. But, there are still areas that have not yet attracted the attention of tourists and are still fairly quiet and apt for exploration.
Anchor just off the coast in total solitude and be the first to make footprints in the virgin powder-white sand beaches, discover hidden waterfalls, swim or snorkel amid the thousands of tropical marine life that live on the coral reefs or anchor in a deserted bay and dine ashore.
Explore the coastline of Thailand and marvel at the hundreds of islands rising out of the aqua green sea, take a kayak to explore the magnificent limestone cliffs or book a fishing expedition. All of this, and more, is possible in the upcoming superyacht hotpost of South East Asia.
Boasting a tropical climate combined with this plethora of activities makes the waters surrounding Thailand some of the most stunning cruising grounds in the world. All this goes hand in hand with the friendliness of the people, the exquisite cuisine and the fabulous culture.
Thailand is a vibrant and captivating country known for its rich cultural heritage. Thai culture is a delightful blend of traditions, customs, and beliefs that have been passed down through generations and from the moment you step off your luxury charter yacht and onto Thai land, you'll be greeted by warm smiles and a genuine sense of hospitality. Thai people are renowned for their friendliness and welcoming nature, making all visitors feel right at home.
Whether you're exploring the bustling streets of Bangkok or relaxing on the stunning beaches of Phuket, Thailand's culture will leave an indelible mark on your heart. Traditional Thai arts, such as classical dance and music, showcase the elegance and grace that are deeply ingrained in the culture. Festivals like Songkran (Thai New Year) and Loy Krathong (Festival of Lights) provide a joyous experience for those who wish to immerse themselves in the lively and celebratory spirit of the Thai people.
When visiting Thailand on a yacht charter vacation, you'll have the opportunity to indulge in a delectable array of tasty cuisine. Thai food is renowned for its vibrant flavors, aromatic spices, and fresh ingredients. Here are some of the top local dishes you shouldn't miss:
-
Tom Yum Goong: This iconic Thai soup is a spicy and sour delight made with shrimp, lemongrass, lime leaves, galangal, and chili. It bursts with tangy flavors and is incredibly refreshing.
-
Pad Thai: A beloved Thai stir-fried noodle dish, Pad Thai combines rice noodles with shrimp, chicken or tofu, bean sprouts, eggs, peanuts, and tamarind sauce. It's a well-balanced and flavorful dish.
-
Green Curry (Kaeng Khiao Wan): This creamy curry is made with a blend of green chili peppers, coconut milk, Thai basil, and other spices. It can be prepared with chicken, beef, shrimp, or vegetables, and is usually served with steamed rice.
Renting a charter yacht to cruise these largely unchartered waters will allow you to enjoy this flawless tropical paradise, combining unbelievable sites with crystal clear waters and idyllic exotic islands.
We highly recommend booking a luxury charter yacht in the cruising grounds of Koh Chang and Koh Samui before the crowds descend. Alternatively, if you prefer the hustle and bustle of city life, talk to your yacht charter broker about chartering a yacht in Phuket, affectionately dubbed the ‘Pearl of the Andaman’.
