HOW TO GET TO THAILAND
Thailand, here we go...
We are looking forward to hosting you for an unforgettable week with us!
And to ensure smooth embarkation, we have provided you with easy access to marina instructions and other details that you will need to get to your starting point.
The marina
The nearest airport is Phuket International Airport (HKT). Please make your way to Phuket Yacht Haven Marina. All taxi drivers know where it is, if not there is a map provided with the address and an official WhatsApp group chat that the crew can use to guide you.
Reminders
The marina can be large and overwhelming the first time, so please plan to arrive early. If you get stuck, please send a message on the official WhatsApp group, so our crew can give you instructions on where to find the boat. So, find a nice spot in a café, grab a drink, and relax while we’re getting everything ready for you
Your crew
If you require marina instructions when you're in Phuket, you can send a message to the official WhatsApp group chat that will be created the night before your embarkation. The staff are all fluent in English and very friendly. Embarkation days can be quite busy, so it’s also wise to arrive a little early and relax.
Transfers
You can book a private airport transfer to take you to the marina ahead, or you can take a taxi or Uber. It'll only be 30-40 mins from the airport to the marina.
Our boat
Your crew will inform you of the specifics of where to find the boat on the group chat. Once, you have the details, look for our 'Med Sailing Holidays" flags. The flags depend on the type of trip you have booked. It will be specified on the WhatsApp welcome message the day before trip date.
Shopping
If you arrive at the marina early, you can go and grab some last-minute necessities, drinks, and snacks in the nearby supermarket. Just a reminder that we have a BYO [bring-your-own] alcohol policy. If you need ice, you can grab one in the supermarket and just replenish every time we dock.
On the day!
Boarding time is at 5 PM. The boat's location will depend on where the boats will be parked for the season.
PLEASE BE PATIENT, your crew are doing everything they can to get you settled asap.
Excursions
If you plan to go on excursions cycling, rent a scooter, visit national parks, and visit tourist spots, you'll need to inform your crew so they can help you book a spot. Excursions, water taxis, entrance fees, rental fees, and gear are not included in the price. It'll be at your own expense.
