North Cruise on The Sea
As the sleek yacht casts off Phuket’s shores, the Captain sounds a celebratory blow of the horn to signify the start of our north Andaman adventure. Cheers erupt from smiling passengers raising mimosas under the glow of the late afternoon sun. Leaning on the polished wooden railing, the scent of ginger and lemongrass from the Panang Beef Curry being served behind mingles with fresh salt air. Giggles burst from new friends as dolphins leap playfully around the catamaran, welcoming us into their azure playground. Cameras click nonstop to capture it all as we build an armada of beautiful memories sailing due north.
Our destinations for the next 5 days read like something from the logbook of a top 19th century explorer: Koh Surin with its storied coral reefs, the legendary Richelieu Rock World War II shipwreck site, secret pirate coves on Koh Chang where few visitors set foot. Yet the real treasures are the moments of wonder sparked at every nautical mile. Like stargazing on deck beneath cloudless skies as a glowing milky way reflects on glassy waters all around. Or dancing barefoot under the moon as Offer Nissim mixes lounge tracks perfectly in tune with the gentle lapping of waves on white sand shores during beach bonfire parties.
From Talay Thai cooking classes using the freshest Andaman catch, to batik print workshops with materials sourced sustainably from local villages, the crew enriches our voyage with authentic arts and flavors. As the resident marine biologist leads daily snorkel safaris over kaleidoscopic coral gardens, she educates gently on preserving such delicate ecosystems. Through her passion, we deepen our appreciation for these diverse habitats we get to briefly call home.
No journey into true adventure is complete without challenge though. When winds pick up off Koh Rok, we take turns waterskiing and paragliding behind the yacht, our cheers of support and carefree laughter carrying across the sea. As golden hour casts its magic, we toast the triumphs big and small that fill everyone’s hearts to brimming. And when at last fiery sunsets melt into starshine, we fine dine on roasted lobster in the glow of lanterns – savoring the fullness found only a seas away from ordinary.
As the closing Captain’s Dinner gets hosted on the final evening, certifying us as initiated cruisers of Phuket’s treasured northern realms, video montages replay poignant moments now forever linked from Phang Nga Bay to Surin Islands. Eyes glisten at the shared privilege of witnessing nature’s majesty during this unforgettable signature sailing souls overflowing with enough beauty to ripple outward, stirring the promise of future adventure for voyages yet uncharted.
