What our customers ask about Sailing Tours from Phuket
What's the typical duration of sailing tours starting from Phuket?
Most sailing trips from Phuket run between 4 and 8 days, with 7 days being the most common length. If you're new to sailing or short on time, you might like the 4-day "Sail Phuket to Ko Phi Phi" tour. For a deeper exploration, the 8-day trips like "Pride Sailing in Thailand" or "Yoga Sailing in Thailand" take you to places like Phang Nga Bay, Koh Hong, and Ko Phi Phi. One traveler told us, "The 4 days one was perfect because I was nervous about being stuck on a boat, but they planned great stops and activities and I never once felt bored."
What are the common starting points in Phuket for sailing tours?
Most sailing trips leave from The Yacht Haven Marina, which is just a 15-minute drive from Phuket Airport. You might also start from Chalong Bay Marina or Ao Po Grand Marina. Tours usually begin between 3 and 5 PM. One traveler mentioned meeting at "the WoodFired Grill Bar Restaurant by The Yacht Haven Marina." Some tours also start from the Banyan Tree Resort or Royal Phuket Marina, depending on your operator.
What's the best time to book a sailing tour from Phuket?
Plan your trip between November and March for the best sailing conditions with blue skies and calm waters. December and January are especially popular months for sailing. One traveler shared with us, "October is not the best month for sailing but we still had a fabulous time." Try to avoid the monsoon season from May to October when there are fewer trips because of rough seas and rain.
What marine life can I expect to see while sailing from Phuket?
You'll find lots of sea life in the waters around Phuket. Good snorkeling spots near Ko Daeng and Monkey Bay let you see coral reefs, tropical fish, and sometimes reef sharks. One happy sailor told us: "We snorkeled looking for sharks near Bamboo Island, and the waters around Ko Ha Yai were full of diverse marine life." While exploring places like Maya Bay in the Phi Phi Islands, Koh Hong, and Phang Nga Bay, you might swim with sea turtles, see parrotfish, and spot many other reef creatures.
How many stops do sailing tours typically make when starting from Phuket?
Your sailing trip will usually include 4 to 6 main stops along the Andaman Sea. You'll likely visit Phang Nga Bay, Koh Hong, Railay Beach, and the Phi Phi Islands. One traveler shared this tip: "The captain takes you to secluded beaches before all the touring groups show up. Most days we didn't see another soul so we had our own private oasis." At each stop, you can swim, snorkel, or check out nearby villages.
What's the ideal group size for sailing tours starting in Phuket?
You'll feel most comfortable on tours with 8 to 14 people. The popular Lagoon 42 catamarans can take up to 14 guests, while smaller boats might have 8 to 10 people. One traveler put it well: "There were 12 people on the tour and 4 crew members, which was perfect for getting to know everyone while still having enough space to find quiet moments."
