Introduction

Why charter a yacht in Mergui.

01

A luxury yacht charter Mergui rewards guests with a combination you cannot replicate from a hotel: total privacy, an itinerary that flexes around your party, and access to coves, restaurants and reefs that road-bound travellers simply never see. Blue Ocean Club curates Mergui cruises across motor yachts, sailing yachts, catamarans and superyachts — every option live-priced against the global live availability feed and presented with our 100% best-price guarantee.

02

Mergui sits at the heart of one of the world's great cruising grounds. Days unfold at the pace of the sea: long swims off the platform, lunch at a beach club where your concierge has held the best table, an afternoon cruise to a quieter anchorage, cocktails on the bow as the light softens. The captain rewrites tomorrow's plan based on tonight's weather and your party's mood.

03

We work with a small list of crewed yacht charter Mergui operators we know personally — captains we have cruised with, chefs whose tasting menus we have eaten, stewardesses who know your children's names by the end of day one. The result is a charter that feels less like a booking and more like a private invitation.

What to Expect

Yacht charter in Mergui — what to expect.

Season, route, hull and investment — the four things every guest asks before we lock a yacht.

01
The season

The Mergui charter season runs from November through March, with warm settled days, calm mornings and a reliable afternoon breeze. Sea temperatures climb into the mid-20s°C through high summer and the prevailing winds rarely exceed a comfortable Force 4.

02
The itinerary

Signature anchorages, swim-only coves and a handful of marquee harbours form the backbone of any Mergui sailing itinerary — your captain rotates between them daily based on wind, swell and the rhythm of your party.

03
The yacht

A crewed catamaran in the 50–70 ft range remains the most versatile choice for Mergui, with shallow draft for tucked-away bays and the deck space families and groups expect. Couples often prefer a sailing yacht of 50–60 ft; larger parties step up to a motor yacht or superyacht with full crew.

04
The investment

Typical luxury yacht charter Mergui cost starts from around €25,000 per week for a comfortable crewed catamaran and scales to €150,000–€500,000+ for a 40 m superyacht — base rates are exclusive of APA (usually 25–35%), fuel, VAT and crew gratuity. Our charter managers run live availability against your dates and present the best three options, side by side, with a 100% best-price guarantee. Minimum charter duration is seven nights in peak season; short-week and split itineraries are available in shoulder months. Tell us your dates, party size and preferred yacht style and we will revert within the day — by email, WhatsApp or a 20-minute call with the broker who will run your charter.

Team Pick

A personal recommendation from Priya.

Hidden anchorage
Kawthaung day anchorage
My hidden gem in Mergui is Kawthaung day anchorage — drop the anchor mid-morning before the day-boats arrive and you'll have it almost to yourself. Late June and early September are my personal favourite weeks — warm water, lighter traffic, and the crews are at their sharpest. Happy to walk you through the itinerary personally — there are a few stops worth building the week around.
