Koh Hong Krabi (8 hrs)

Last week, a guest asked me if we could "island-hop without the hop" - turns out the Seabee was exactly what they needed. This Westport Yachts 130ft superyacht makes reaching Koh Hong Island (Krabi) feel like floating on a luxury hotel rather than bouncing across choppy waters.

Koh Hong's emerald lagoon is pretty cool for Thailand - hidden behind towering limestone cliffs that create perfect natural protection from wind and waves. The Seabee works well in these waters, with enough space for 44 guests to spread out while you cruise past those Instagram-famous rock formations. Also worth noting about Thailand, November through March brings rock climbing season and calm seas, though monsoon months offer fewer crowds and spectacular jungle waterfalls.

What makes this trip super chill is the flexible itinerary. Some remote Thai islands have limited facilities, so bringing essentials and a waterproof bag for electronics keeps things smooth. The Westport's stability means you can actually enjoy lunch without holding onto your plate, and the crew knows exactly which hidden beaches stay calm when afternoon winds pick up.

In Thailand, GPS stands for "Gorgeous Paradise Spots" - and Koh Hong delivers that perfect combination of dramatic scenery and protected waters. Your shortcut to island-hopping bliss.
