Malaysia West
Take to the crystal clears water of northwest Malaysia on a yacht charter in and around Langkawi. Nestled on the southern tip of the Gulf of Thailand, this region benefits from a smattering of influences from Thailand, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India and of course the deep cultural roots of Malaysia. Lush natural rainforests, an abundance of wildlife, and clear blue waters make this the perfect stop on a Southeast Asia yacht charter.
Thailand
Taking to the crystal-clear waters of Thailand is a wonderful yacht charter destination offering unrivaled cruising grounds and unspoiled diving sites. The bustling stop of Phuket boasts 65 beaches beckoning for you to pull up and enjoy a beach picnic and splash in the waves. While Koh Samui offers clear waters, calm cruising grounds, and even more opportunities to dive and snorkel, the entire region of Thailand and especially the west coast near Phuket and east coast near Koh Samui should be unmissable stops on an Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia yacht charter.
Indonesia
A yacht charter to Bali, Komodo, Raja Ampat and Lombok can explore the arts and culture scene of Indonesia. The cruising grounds of Indonesia are home to the most biodiverse marine life, over 75% of the world’s coral reef species, and is becoming one of the most popular places to book a yacht charter in the Indian Ocean. Stay in Bali before or after your yacht charter, go diving in Raja Ampat’s unspoiled reefs, or get up close and personal with dragons in Komodo National Park.
The Philippines
The Philippines comprise nearly 7,200 islands, making it the second largest archipelago in the world. More and more luxury yacht charters in Southeast Asia are including a stop in the beautiful Philippines thanks to undisturbed beaches, an abundance of wildlife, lush vegetation and colorful cultures awaiting. Escape to the Philippines for a truly off the beaten path destination on your next sailing vacation on this side of the world.
East Malaysia
East Malaysia, also known as Malaysian Borneo sits apart from her mainland surrounded by varying shades of crystal blue waters, teeming with coral reefs and marine life, making it an excellent scuba diving destination. Charter a yacht in the Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia and make time to visit both sides of Malaysia.
Vietnam
Steeped in history, a private yacht charter in Vietnam can offer an unforgettable vacation. Sitting across the west coast from the Philippines and the South China Sea, Vietnam offers excitement both on the water and on land. With a coastline stretching nearly 3,500 miles, Vietnam can offer both a relaxing environment, and space for your hedonistic desires to come true.
The Seychelles
The Seychelles is a breathtaking island nation sitting in the middle of the Indian Ocean. With popular destinations like Mahé and Praslin, you’ll encounter a completely different shade of turquoise in the waters here. With Africa lying off her west coast and nothing else for miles in any other direction, the island chains of the Seychelles are a must when looking at yacht charters in the Indian Ocean.
Mauritius
Mauritius and her capital city of Port Louis offer a magical break for those on a luxury yacht charter in the Indian Ocean. Teeming with marine life, pristine beaches and colorful cultures and history on land, Mauritius is another small but mighty group of islands lying in the Indian Ocean. With Madagascar lying off her west coast, and Australia the next closest piece of land to the east, Mauritius is where some venture to get lost on a yacht charter in the Indian Ocean, while others get found here.
Red Sea
The furthest destination from the hub of an Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia yacht charter, Hurghada lying along the Red Sea is home to some of the world’s best scuba diving, with over 40 miles of plush sandy beaches. Whitewashed buildings effortlessly flow toward turquoise-colored waters, offering a truly breathtaking sailing vacation along the coastline of Egypt.
Hong Kong
Hong Kong and Hong Kong Island offer a bit of a different perspective when booking a luxury yacht charter in Southeast Asia. More of a bustling city break than the scuba diving, barefoot adventures of some of our other destinations mentioned, Hong Kong is where you go when you need a strong dose of the city life. Whether it’s shopping, the nightlife, or to explore the melting pot of cultures to be found here, Hong Kong Island is a great stop when cruising along the northern part of the South China Sea.
