Thailand Adventure Cruising

Idyllic beaches and untouched rainforests backed by limestone cliffs – Thailand’s scenery really is cruising perfection.

Thailand’s western coastline is the ultimate in remote island escapes. While it has its fair-share of high-end tourist centres, it’s the hidden archipelagos tucked away from the droves of holidaymakers that make the Thai seas worth navigating. As beautiful as Phuket and Ao Nang may be, you’ll never struggle to find a spot on the beaches of Ko Yao Yai or Ko Rok Noi. Spot tropical fish amongst the secluded reefs of Tarutao National Marine Park, and explore the jungles and limestone cliffs of the Krabi province. If you’re lucky, the waters will be all your own, without another boat in sight.

Go snorkelling in the Surin Island

The Andaman Sea is bursting with coral reefs, and the swimming and snorkelling doesn’t get much better than in the Surin Islands. Adding the allure of this well-kept secret are the seafaring Moken locals, famous for their ability to hold their breath underwater for minutes on end while out searching for shellfish and eels.
