Phuket’s nearby islands are underrated for a reason…

People think they need to go far to see something special.
You really don’t.

While you’re off enjoying your cocktail on a tropical beach 🍹🏝️ our team have been getting the marigolds on and doing a bit of scrubbing behind the scenes. 🧽⚓

Not only are we removing those cheeky barnacles from the hulls, but the team are also checking engines, inspecting back decks, and making sure every single boat in the 5 Star Marine fleet stays in tip top shape.

Because luxury tours don’t just happen by magic… They happen because of an incredible team putting in the hard work before you even step onboard. 👊🚤

A huge thank you to the crew for always going above and beyond to keep our fleet looking and performing at its best. ❤️

⚓ Engine issues at sea can quickly become serious, especially near coral and shallow areas.

Last week, the 5 Star Marine team stepped in to help a yacht experiencing engine problems and drifting close to coral near Phi Phi.

Our crew assisted immediately and then returned the following day to help tow and guide the yacht safely back to the north of Phuket. 💙

Out on the water, we are one team.
Our team is always ready to help anyone in need at sea. 🌊

Sometimes we forget that some of the most beautiful islands in the world are right on our doorstep.

Phi Phi, Phang Nga Bay, Coral Island, Khai Islands… tourists fly halfway around the world to see them, while locals say “maybe next month” 😅

Maybe it’s time for a little reminder of why we all love living here.

Tag the friend who always says “we should do a boat trip soon” ⚓🏝
