Charter a yacht for a sailing holiday around the most beautiful islands of Thailand, Langkawi, and Mergui, in Southeast Asia

Clapotis-Mer Yachting Holidays offer well-equipped and crewed yachts for all-inclusive yacht charter holidays in Thailand’s islands. Sail on to Langkawi just off the northwest coast of Malaysia or embark at Kawthaung in the south of Myanmar for the Mergui Archipelago

If you choose to cruise on board the sail or power catamarans, you will set off on a sailing charter holiday from Phuket to the most popular islands in Thailand.

Some of them are known as Phi Phi Islands, Ko Ngai, Ko Muk, Ko Kradan, Ko Rok Nok, and Ko Haa.

Chartering the classic schooner is a unique sailing trip experience. Go on an adventure sailing holiday around Thailand’s southern islands through to Langkawi or over to the Mergui Islands.

The best time to sail the islands of Thailand, Langkawi, and the Mergui in the Andaman Sea is during the northeast monsoon from November to April.

From May to September, the classic schooner sails the islands just off the coast of Sabah in the north of Borneo Island. A voyage around East Malaysia can include a visit to Brunei, a city with a rich cultural heritage, jungle trekking, and wildlife watching.

These yachting holiday destinations are some of the most exciting in Southeast Asia.

Start your yachting holiday from Phuket and head for the islands off the Krabi coastline in the southwest of Thailand

Phuket is an international port of departure for yacht charters sailing around the most beautiful islands in the south of Thailand, just across from Langkawi in Malaysia, in the Andaman Sea. You will be able to visit the National Marine Parks in Thailand, home to scented tropical rainforests and exotic wildlife.

Phang Nga Bay and Krabi Islands are to the northeast of Phuket. Set sail for the world-famous ‘James Bond Island’ along with more than a hundred pristine Thailand islands. Koh Racha Yai and Koh Racha Noi are beautiful twin islands off the south coast of Phuket, and the Phi Phi Islands are just southwest of Krabi town. You might decide to cruise further south to enjoy Koh Lanta Island and its surrounding peaceful islands. Alternatively, sail northwest into the Andaman Sea to the remote, yet popular, Similan Islands National Park in Thailand. Koh Adang and Koh Rawi are further south and two of Thailand’s hidden gem islands. Koh Lipe is a small inhabited island in Thailand with a lively tiny town in the Tarutao National Marine Park off Satun Province. It’s a peaceful place on the southwest coast of Thailand, just a few miles away from Langkawi in Malaysia.

A cruise between Phuket and Langkawi in Malaysia is a fantastic holiday experience.

Phang Nga Bay is dotted with hundreds of islands and is known for its good anchorages and calm seas during the dry season. Mainland Thailand surrounding Phang Nga Bay offers nature lovers an unspoiled landscape. Here you will find Koh Tarutao Island, where the Thai islands that make up the Koh Tarutao Marine National Park are accessible by yachts departing from either Phuket or Langkawi. The Tarutao and Adang-Rawi archipelagos are the most beautiful lesser-known Thai islands. Enjoy an extraordinary sailing holiday around the islands off the south coast of Thailand near Langkawi in Malaysia.

The Similan Islands are part of Thailand, situated some 80 miles northwest of Phuket. The Similan Islands are some of the most popular sailing destinations in Thailand if you fancy an area that is wild and largely uninhabited with secluded beaches and coves.

The Surin Islands are a group of five islands. Mu Ko Surin National Park is about 30 miles off the west coast of Thailand. The Surin community of Moken made their home on Koh Surin Nuea Island. Richelieu Rock, a purple coral reef off Surin Island, is the habitat of a variety of marine life. Surin Islands National Park is the closest marine boundary between Myanmar and Thailand.

Langkawi Island in Malaysia is around 124 miles south of Phuket. It is a good starting point for your sailing holiday.

Travelling by yacht lets you discover Langkawi Island’s most beautiful places. The Langkawi archipelago consists of ninety-nine mostly uninhabited tropical islands where you will find pristine beaches and mountains covered with lush forest. Langkawi is a lovely and peaceful sailing destination close to Thailand. It is one of the most beautiful regions to visit in Southeast Asia.

A short sail north from Langkawi will take you to the islands off the south of Thailand, a beautiful area for a yacht cruising holiday. You can also start your boat charter from Telaga Harbour on the west coast of Langkawi Island. Make for Burau Bay and then set sail north for Datai Bay, home to some of Langkawi’s most idyllic beaches. Tanjung Rhu Beach on the north coast of Langkawi has a legendary cave for you to visit. On the east coast of Langkawi, you can anchor by Kilim River in the middle of the mangrove forest. Sail around the southern islands and into Bass Harbour to anchor off Kuah Town—Langkawi’s capital. Pulau Dayang on Bunting Island is famous for the mystical ‘Lake of the Pregnant Maiden’ and is surrounded by tropical rainforests. Kayak around the water’s edge to watch the monkeys and other animals and then sail back up the west coast to reach Pantai Cenang. Here you can visit the Underwater World in Langkawi, Malaysia’s largest aquarium.
