Thailand Charter Show 1-3 November 2024
Organised by the Thai Yachting Business Association, the Thailand Charter Show is Southeast Asia’s premier Yacht Charter Show for yachts and superyachts. A luxury yachting event that provides a platform for crewed charter yachts and brokers to showcase their boats in a stunning location, the third edition of the Thailand Charter Show will be held at Phuket Yacht Haven from the 1st to the 3rd of November, 2024, just before the start of the high season.
The Thailand Charter Show is an international charter event for Yachting and Tourism industry professionals, and selected invited guests. The Show encourages engagement between yachts, marine industry players, sponsors, and professional visitors in an intimate environment. International and local charter brokers, luxury travel agents, luxury tour operators, and hotel industry professionals will be introduced to Phuket’s renowned charter yachts, while experiencing Phuket's famed hospitality. The visitors will enjoy a program that promotes cruising destinations, sustainable initiatives, and local entertainment.
For the first two days, charter yachts are on display at Phuket Yacht Haven Marina, and on the last day guests are invited on a one-day, invitation only, ‘familiarization’ cruise aboard participating yachts to exciting charter destinations around Phuket and the Andaman Sea. The aim is to help build and realize potential business and partnerships. The mission is to offer the most effective platform for your brand to capture and interact with the most relevant target audience. An organising committee of TYBA members will run the event with the participation of leading international charter brokers and local charter operators.
Often referred to as the Pearl of the Andaman, Phuket is Thailand’s largest island with an extensive coastline featuring long stretches of sandy beach strung together by dramatic rock formations. “While spectacular and unspoiled scenery, fragrant cuisine and empty and uncommercial cruising grounds are the norm (when compared to Europe and the Caribbean), South East Asia is also starting to develop the infrastructure necessary to attract superyacht owners to the area”, reports Gordon Fernandes, co-founder of Asia Pacific Superyachts, based in Phuket for the last 23 year.
With over 900 wet berths Phuket is rising in the eyes of those seeking bespoke travel experiences as it claims its rightful place as Asia’s favourite yachting hot spot. With its proximity to Phang Nga Bay and the surrounding majestic limestone islands, Phuket Yacht Haven has deep-water access with 5-meter draft capacity allowing the marina to berth yachts of 100 meters. The marina can comfortably accommodate 320 vessels at present.
Well known for its many islands, Phuket is full of hidden beaches perfect for those looking for a tropical paradise. From motor yachts, power catamarans, classic sailing yachts and superyachts, Phuket offers a large variety of vessels available for charter during all months of the year. Situated on the northeast coast of Asia’s Premier Island retreat, a mere 20 minutes to the international airport, Phuket Yacht Haven is an ideal location for travellers and sailors seeking the perfect port-of-call, as a base to enjoy Phuket.
