International yachting visitors are bringing a new era to Phuket, Thailand’s largest and most developed island, and Koh Samui, the country’s second-largest island.
While Phuket is known as one of Southeast Asia’s leading superyacht hubs, Samui is now, too, developing into a luxury yachting destination.
Thailand’s tranquil beauty, stunning cruising, friendly people and ancient culture are all helping to grow the country’s reputation as a worldwide yachting destination amid the wider Southeast Asia region’s dynamic superyacht visitor growth.
Phuket and Koh Samui lead Thailand’s yachting wave, with both islands offering a blend of relaxation, indulgence, tropical beauty and adventure cruising. Phuket is busier, yet it offers more to do. Koh Samui is half the size of Phuket and the more laid-back of the two, though there is plenty of action as well as luxury.
