Phi Phi Islands (2 days / 1 night)

You know what? After two decades of captaining yachts around these waters, I still get excited about overnight trips to the Phi Phi Islands. Those crowded longtail boats? Forget about them. When you charter Sweet Lips, our Princess Yacht 78ft superyacht, you get something those day-trippers never experience – the islands at sunset and sunrise, completely to yourselves.

What we have found in Thai waters is that Maya Bay transforms into pure magic once the tour boats disappear around 4 PM. Your group of up to 20 guests can actually hear the waves lapping against those famous limestone cliffs. In our Thailand experience, this is when the real photography happens – no photobombing tourists, just pristine turquoise water and dramatic karst formations.

Worth noting about Thailand's weather patterns: even during monsoon season, those brief tropical showers are surprisingly warm and refreshing. November through February offers perfect conditions, but honestly? Those occasional raindrops just add to the authentic Thai atmosphere while you sip cocktails on Sweet Lips' spacious deck.

You will find that Thailand waters offer incredible snorkeling spots around Phi Phi Leh that tour boats simply rush past. Our crew knows the hidden lagoons accessible only during certain tides. Even better for Thailand adventures, we anchor in secluded spots where you can actually enjoy the crystal clear waters without dodging speedboats every five minutes.

Because Thailand deserves to be seen from the sea, not squeezed onto overcrowded tour boats with forty strangers.
