Charters - Thailand

Thailand is an independent country that lies in the heart of Southeast Asia. It is bordered on the north by Burma and Laos and to the east by Cambodia and Laos and to the south by the Gulf of Thailand and Malaysia and finally to the west by the Andaman Sea.

The country is a kingdom and has been ruled since 1946 by the ninth king in the House of Chakri. He is the world’s longest serving head of state and holds many titles including the Upholder of the Buddhist religion and the Defender of All Faiths. Thailand welcomes all faiths and is a peaceful country whose people are confident and friendly.

Lying on the 8° north, Phuket is the ideal gateway to the Andaman Sea islands. With hundreds of islands here, there are countless miles of beaches, creeks and headlands meeting the sea. Under a fine tropical climate, the beaches are palm fringed, with pristine white sand, crystal waters and superb coral reefs.

The Andaman Sea is regarded as Thailand’s most precious resource as it hosts the country’s most luxurious resources and feeds millions from its seas. Add to that the renowned friendliness of the Thai People, their magnificent cuisine and culture, and Thailand has deservedly become Asia’s premier cruising destination. Air temperatures vary from 25°C (77 F) to 32° C (86 F) and the sea temperature is  28°C (82.4 F). And despite the tsunami in 2004 this coastal area continues to be the playground of the rich and famous of Asia.

You can enjoy comfortable cruising all year round because there are no typhoons and even the seasonal monsoons are gentle.

The area of Phuket rarely experiences strong winds and is dominated by a tropical monsoon climate with two distinct seasons separated by two months called inter-seasons. In the beginning of November, the winds slowly turn again to the northeast.

The sunniest months are December to April but November, July and August are very pleasant as well.
