Private Sailing Yacht Charter by Independence from Koh Samui

5.0 (239 reviews) Top rated

Highlights

  • Sunset views from the deck
  • Private tour for your party only
  • Hotel pickup and drop-off included
  • 8.5-hour tour at a steady pace

Independence is a 52-foot Hans Christian yacht, Class A-rated by Lloyd’s Register and designed by naval architect Doug Peterson, chartered privately rather than sold by the seat — up to 15 guests share the boat with a dedicated skipper, hostess and chef for 8 hours 30 minutes around the Koh Samui archipelago.

Sailing options span Koh Samui sunset trips, half-day and full-day runs around Koh Phangan, and full-day excursions to Angthong Marine Park. Onboard: an open bar poured Italian-style (wine, beer, liquors, soft drinks and snacks), Illy espresso and cappuccino, two paddle boards and water sports gear, a JBL speaker, an air-conditioned dressing room with shower, and an electric toilet. A seafood lunch — or seafood canapés on the sunset run — comes from the onboard chef; dinner isn’t part of the standard package, though a complimentary Italian pastry cake can be arranged for birthdays and anniversaries on request. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included.

One paperwork note worth planning around: Thai liability insurance rules require an original passport at boarding, not a photo or copy.

At 5.0 stars across 235 reviews, this is one of the better-reviewed charters on the site by sample size. Cancellation terms are standard — a full refund up to 24 hours before departure.
