Tranquil Thailand now boasts world-class marina and cutting edge cats. Our clients have full access to all the facilities of this spectacular, non-tidal marina, which will include restaurants, shops, a five-star hotel, man-made lagoons and a yacht club. To celebrate its new ‘home' in Phuket, Sunsail is offering 10 per cent off* the yacht charter price on all new bookings departing before the end of 2009.
Ao Po Grand Marina is situated at the entrance to the stunning Phang Nga Bay and is just 30 minutes from Phuket airport. Holidaymakers sailing from the new base in Phuket will also be among the first in the world to sample Sunsail's new 384 catamaran, recently announced as joining the Thailand fleet.
“We are very excited to have moved our Phuket base to this impressive 200-berth super yacht marina with its superb location and world-class facilities,” said Kim Lehmann, Sunsail Yacht Charter's marketing manager.
“It is in keeping with our philosophy of continually improving our product for holidaymakers and of offering unbeatable sailing in breathtaking locations.
“The combination of Phuket's majestic coastline, quaint fishing villages and calm turquoise waters makes Thailand one of the most desirable sailing grounds in the world.
“And Sunsail's 10 per cent ‘Marina Warming' discount – coupled with other Sunsail discounts** – makes sampling this world-class marina and the surrounding islands very affordable.”
Sunsail's new 384 catamaran, built by world renowned boat builders Robertson and Caine exclusively for Sunsail, is also a new addition to the Phuket sailing experience. Featuring ‘edgy' Euro styling and a generous sail plan, the new 384 catamaran offers a perfect combination of performance and fun on the water. There is a large cockpit with an outside dining area featuring versatile ergonomic seating for up to eight people and a functional hard-top bimini protects the cockpit area and helm station, where all the main sail controls are located for hassle-free manoeuvres even with a limited crew.
“With a brand new marina and brand new yachts, sailing with Sunsail in Phuket has never looked so good!” said Ms Lehmann.
