Our Asia sailing trips follow a simple recipe. Start with a generous scoop of aquamarine water and secret strips of golden sand (remember to remove all traces of tourist crowds). Throw in a handful of rare corals and tropical fish, then add a dash of nautical navigation. Leave to simmer while you nap and work on that Thailand tan, then take off the heat and slow it right down with a guided trek to some jungle-covered ruins. Serve with a sizzling stir-fry courtesy of your onboard chef and a jaw-dropping island sunset for good measure. Want to try the recipe for yourself? We’ve got the perfect sailing trip for you…
Asia sailing highlights
Explore the caves of Ko Hong
Visited on our Phuket Sailing Adventure, Ko Hong is regarded by those in the know as the most beautiful island on the Andaman Coast. And that’s a big call. Most tourists need to organize day trips from Krabi to visit Ko Hong’s limestone cave system and secluded beaches, but not you. Pull up the catamaran and go for a swim right off the deck, or wander ashore and start exploring. It's that simple.
Take in a sunset with your crew
There's nothing better than cracking a cold one, pulling up a chair on the deck at the back of the boat and sitting down to watch the sky turn from a brilliant blue to the oranges and pinks of a perfect sunset - except maybe doing it with your newly found friends. Swap stories and laugh over the new memories you've made with travelers all wanting the same unforgettable experience as you.
Spend some time on Koh Phi Phi Island
There's no better way to start or finish your Thailand sailing adventure than by exploring one of the country's most famous places - Koh Phi Phi. Whether you want to sink your toes into the white sand, satisfy your cravings with a local meal, go for a dip in the turquoise waters or simply stare out at the magnificent limestone cliffs that dot the landscape, this mesmerizing island is all yours to enjoy.
Tuck into traditional Thai cuisine onboard
Once you set sail on your Thailand adventure, you don't have to worry about a thing - and we mean it. Whether you're craving some stir-fried noodles or your tastebuds are dying to try a spicy curry, each boat has a professional chef onboard that'll whip up some breakfasts, lunches, and dinners for you. All you have to do is turn up with an appetite for some traditional Thai food and a healthy sense of adventure.

Great trip! This was totally out of my comfort zone sort of trip and I went and did it anyway. So glad I did! Spent time with a great group of people and staff were super lovely. They really wanted everyone to feel comfortable and have a good time. It's the perfect way to catch up on sleep! Especially sleeping outside at night and having a wonderful view of the stars. Main trip highlights: snorkelling , the food, the sunrises/sunsets. It made coming back to civilisation and reality much harder!

No air conditioning in cabins so unable to sleep at night.
Itinerary is misleading (in my opinion)- I thought that islands stated would be visited by foot too and not just seen from a distance.
A lot of itinerary not fulfilled with no flexible or discussed new options.
Closed mindset guide - he didn’t enjoy “tourist traps” and therefore we shouldn’t either (but I am a tourist)
Unable to swim or snorkel most times due to jelly fish (not anyone’s fault but alternative arrangements should have been discussed or allowed).

Pros: Thailand is an incredible, stunning country & best seen by boat, our cook was amazing. Cons: Boat is insanely hot, small fans, there were so many jellyfish that we couldn't swim for the first 3 days (our leader told us Intrepid knew about the issue & decided not to warn us), our guide was a nightmare. I have been on many Intrepid trips... but this was NOT it.

Excellent and relaxing trip. Beautiful scenery, fabulous food. Great crew. Slept on deck under the stars most nights. Enjoyed the snorkelling and kayaking.
