The Asia Pacific region is one of the most exciting yachting destinations in the world. Where else can you find such incredible culture, diving and mouthwatering cuisine? The governments of Thailand<\/strong><\/a> and Indonesia<\/a><\/strong> have always restricted access to visiting yachts. However, there has recently been a shift and Myanmar is the latest country to relax its laws. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phuket is the ‘Pearl of the Andaman’ with close proximity to Phang Nga Bay<\/strong><\/a>, Myanmar<\/strong><\/a> and Malaysia<\/a><\/strong>. Marinas on the island can provide berths for yachts up to 130 metres in length. These marinas are now offering full service with excellent dockage facilities, so can cater to the world’s best superyachts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
