Southeast Asia
Exotic cultures, fragrant spices, tropical beaches and warm hospitality, Southeast Asia has some of the most dynamic and diverse yachting lands in the world.
Thailand is one of Asia's most exotic countries where sun-bleached sands glisten, colourful floating markets bustle, and temples adorn the jungle landscape. The silver sands of Malaysia's Langkawi archipelago have perfected a lazy pace, from the coral gardens of the Marine Park to the mysterious 'Island of the Pregnant Lady'. Cruise along the graceful Myanmar coastline, or for an alternative charter idea, the kingdom of Cambodia and neighbouring Vietnam are slowly re-emerging as must see destinations.
Combine a mystical oriental charter in these new cruising grounds with visits to ancient temples and magnificent countryside.
