Sailing on the White Marlin
For those seeking an unforgettable experience of island-hopping around the tropical paradise of Phuket, Thailand, the White Marlin luxury yacht tour with Andaman Signature Phuket is a must. This custom-built 88-foot yacht provides the ultimate sailing comfort and style as you cruise the azure waters of the Andaman Sea, taking in the stunning scenery of Phuket’s famous beaches and islands.
The History of the White Marlin
The White Marlin was constructed in 2006 by the renowned Cheoy Lee shipyard in Hong Kong. With its sleek lines and modern design, it immediately turned heads in the yachting world. The vessel was purpose-built for luxurious private charters, combining elegant interiors with ample deck space for soaking up the sun.
No expense was spared in the White Marlin’s construction, from the solid wood paneling and marble countertops to the state-of-the-art navigation systems. It has the capacity to comfortably accommodate up to 26 guests on day trips from its home base of Phuket.
The Andaman Signature Tour
The full-day tour offered by Andaman Signature Phuket takes you to some of the region’s most breathtaking spots aboard the White Marlin. Your journey begins at the Royal Phuket Marina, where you’ll board the immaculately maintained yacht and meet your experienced crew.
