Sailing in Thailand in your yacht will not be complete without taking a trip to the Similan Island. It is located 55 miles northwest of Phuket. There are nine islands and small islets that make up this archipelago. Besides sailing, you can enjoy Thailand underwater marine life through snorkeling or diving. You can also take pleasure into the marvelous irregular formations of the boulders.

Kam, which is located along the Gulf of Thailand, is a haven for visitors. Aside from its white sandy beaches and pristine waters, which appear to be lifted from postcards, black lava stones surface on top of the shallow waters.
