Burma Boating offers you the chance to cruise in style on a classic sailing yacht around the Mergui Archipelago: a group of 800 deserted islands in Burma’s remote south.
Think white beaches lined with palm trees and dense jungle. Think swimming in azure water amongst colourful reef fish, spotting corals, and collecting seashells. Now, picture eagles circling above, gibbons and monitor lizards eyeing you from the thickets, while a sundowner is being mixed for you on board the yacht.
All yachts are between 20 – 40 meters and fully crewed with captains, guides, deckhands, chefs, and some of them even with dive masters and private massage therapists. Choose from a cabin charter and join a scheduled departure with other guests or take a private charter for a more intimate experience.
With cruises available from 3 nights or 14 days from October to May, there is an option for everyone to explore this slice of paradise during your Burma Adventure.
