Phuket, lying eight hundred and seventy kilometers south from

Bangkok, is Thailand's largest island, as well as being the country's

smallest province.

Today, Phuket is a vibrant, intrinsic and multi-cultural tourist

destination. Being approximately twenty-one km in width by forty-

eight km in length, the typical landscape of Phuket is one of

forested hills, coconut groves and rubber tree plantations. The

Islands coastline is dotted with numerous spectacular

beaches. The surrounding waters of the Andaman Sea contain

an incredible variety of marine life, which have become

renowned for offering world-class scuba diving. Phuket Island and

its thirty-two smaller islands form Phuket Province, giving a total

area of five hundred and seventy square kilometers.

For yacht berthing in Phuket, we recommend the Yacht Haven

Marina, which is situated on the Northeast coast of Phuket. The

marina is within close proximity to the majestic limestone islands

of Phang Nga Bay. The Yacht Haven is Phuket’s best deep water

access marina. The marina is currently capable of taking yachts

of up to 80 meters in length, and 5-meter draft. There are plans

to greatly expand their Superyacht dock space and marina

facilities in the coming year or two.

Phang Nga Bay is renowned for its one hundred or so monolithic

limestone karst islets. The area offers breath-taking scenery and is

classed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. One of the many

attractions in the itinerary of Phang Nga Bay would be sea-

kayaking amongst the many islands and caves, which open out to

reveal hidden 'Hongs' - open air lagoons with sheer limestone

walls. Visiting the traditional stilted Muslim fishing village of ‘Koh

Panyi’ for a fresh seafood lunch is also well worthwhile. Most

famous of all the highlights is James Bond Island, featured in ‘The

Man with the Golden Gun’. Six Senses Resort offers a wellness Spa

treatment at their exclusive five-star Island resort on Koh Yao Noi

Island.

Krabi Province, Sailing just an hour or so southeast from Phang Nga

is the Province of Krabi. Similar in many respects to Phang Nga

bay, Krabi also offers limestone islands of stunning degrees, but

added to this are some beautiful powder white beaches, with

crystal clear water for snorkeling and scuba diving. Krabi province

also offers good land excursions for guest wanting to explore. Tiger

Cave Temple, Hot Spring waterfall and the Emerald Pool are just

some of the natural attractions awaiting those with an

adventurous spirit. Within the coastal boundaries of Krabi province

lie some dream islands. Phi Phi Islands is probably the most

recognizable and beautiful of all, but further to the south are Lanta

Yai and Lanta Noi islands. Koh Lanta offers a couple of great dive

sites known as ‘Hin Daeng’ Red Rock, due to the profuseness of

the abundant Red soft corals growing there. Whale Sharks are

often spotted by divers at Hin Daeng.

The Similan Islands lie approximately 55Nm northwest of Phuket in the

Andaman Sea. In 1982, the 90 Sq.Nm reserve comprising the Similans

was declared a Marine National Park. In recent years this group of nine

small islands has become one of the leading attractions for scuba

divers to Thailand. It is rated as one of the top-ten dive sites in the

world. During the high season months, water clarity for divers can be

between 30-50 meters. Manta Rays, Whale sharks and other large

pelagic fish can all be found in residence around the islands. Other

attractions include pristine coral reefs, power white beaches, small

trekking excursions and snorkeling.

The Surin Islands, archipelago is a 95Sq.Nm Marine National Park,

located in the Andaman Sea, some 35Nm off of the Thai coast.

Belonging to Ranong Province, the park's five islands lie just a few miles

south of the Thai/Burma border. The two main islands, Koh Surin Nua

and Koh Surin Tai, are separated by a narrow strait of water, just one

hundred meters across. The islands have almost no flat ground beyond

small pockets of mangrove and stunning little beaches, nestled in

hidden coves. These two islands cover a land mass of 9sq.m. and

8sq.m. respectively. Again world-class diving is within easy reach

around the islands fringing reefs. Guests can go to the beach, swim,

snorkel, or look for monkeys and other local wildlife. A traditionally

nomadic Seafaring race of people called the ‘Moken’ Sea Gypsies,

make seasonal stilted thatch homes on a couple of the beaches. They

can be visited to buy sea shells or to just witness their very traditional

and rare way of life.

The Gulf of Thailand offers some lovely cruising

opportunities, having many unspoiled and beautiful

tropical Islands scattered around the southern coast. Small

winding roadways through old Coconut Tree Plantations,

leading to golden beaches are typical of the type of

scene one would encounter whilst exploring Koh Samui,

Koh Pangan and Koh Tao Islands.

Koh Samui is the best known of the islands in the Gulf. It is

now well established as the main tourist island on the south

western part of the Gulf of Thailand. Good anchorages

can be found on the eastern and northern side of the

Island. Many local jetties make coming ashore easy by

tender. Samui is home to some prestigious hotel chains,

amongst these are the Six Senses, Four Seasons, and

Banyan Tree Resorts.

Koh Pha Ngan, located a few miles north of Koh Samui, is

slightly smaller in size but less developed and more relaxed.

There are beautiful beaches all the way around the

islands, but the best bays can be found on the eastern

coast.

Koh Tao (Turtle Island), ten or so miles north from Koh Pha

Ngan is the small island of Koh Tao. Due to its remoteness,

it is hardly developed and very natural. Clear waters offer

good scuba diving and snorkeling amongst its rocky bays

and inlets. The island is an important breeding ground for

Hawksbill and Green Turtles.

Mu Ko Ang Thong National Park is an archipelago in the Gulf

of Thailand. It comprises of 42 Islands. Most of the islands

consist of limestone mountains 10 - 100 meters above sea

level. The park covers a total area of 102 sq.km of which

about 18sq.km is land mass.

Seal Superyachts has been providing professional yacht support

services in Burmese waters since 1997. This is from the very start

of when Burma's waters were opened up to private yacht visits.

In fact we are proudly justified in saying that we are the

pioneers of yachting in Burma. We were directly responsible for

negotiations with the government, persuading them to open

the Mergui Archipelago to eco-tourism and yachting. Before 97,

the islands had remained off limits since the end of the Second

World War.

Burma has some of the most beautiful sailing grounds in Asia,

and arguably the world. The southern islands of Burma's Mergui

Archipelago lie only one hundred and twenty nautical miles to

the north of Phuket and directly west of the Thai border town of

Ranong. There are approximately eight hundred pristine and

untouched islands opposite Burma's Tennasserim coast, forming

one of the last remaining untouched paradises on the planet.

Flora and fauna is prolific on the islands. Although impenetrable

jungle prevents sighting of larger mammals, their tracks are

plentiful above the high tide mark on the beaches of larger

islands. Macaque (pronounced ma-cak) monkeys and large

monitor lizards are seen frequently on the beaches and rocky

shorelines. The larger islands are believed to support a wide

variety of mammals and reptiles within the dense rain forests,

although no formal study has been done since the turn of the

century. Crocodiles have been seen, and there has even been

a suggestion that the rare Asian Rhinoceros might still survive on

the larger islands. There are literally hundreds of untouched

anchorages in this southern Mergui group.

The Mergui Archipelago

Page 13: professional manner....SEAL Superyachts is a professional yacht support Agency, providing assistance to visiting Superyachts throughout Asia and the Indian Ocean since 1991. Seal Superyachts

Seal Superyachts can arrange all the necessary government

permits required for yachts to visit the Mergui

Archipelago. The entry point in to the islands is through the

southernmost port in Myanmar called Kawthong (formally

known as Victoria Point). With all permits pre-arranged,

immigration clearances are completed within one hour on

arrival. After which your yacht will be free to continue

onward to explore the stunning islands of the Mergui

Archipelago.

Of the over eight hundred Islands which comprise the Mergui

Archipelago; there are only a hand-full which are off-

limits. This is due to some navy and army bases on the

islands. Apart from these, all other islands are open to

visit. You will be able to cruise and stop where you wish,

without hinderance from and government authority. The

area is extremely remote and virtually uninhabited. There are

a few fishing villages in the northern part of the archipelago,

but generally one can expect to see very little boat

traffic. The Moken Sea Gypsies can also be found in the

Mergui Archipelago; however they are shy and generally

prefer to stay away from any visiting yachts.

To visit the Mergui Archipelago is in fact a special

privilege. Very few places are left on this earth that are as

unspoiled and as natural as this place. The waters are clean

and abundant in marine life, whilst the forests are stocked will

flora and fauna. We highly recommend a visit to the Mergui

Archipelago as part of any yachts visit to Southeast Asia; it will

be the highlight of a cruise to this region.
