Phuket Rating editorsPublished: 4 October 2026Updated: 4 October 202635 min read

A private yacht or boat in Phuket costs from ฿33,900 for a full day and from ฿18,900 for a half day in the 2026/27 season; the dearest full day priced in baht is ฿588,500, and one boat is priced in US dollars. By type, a full day starts at ฿34,900 on a sailing catamaran, ฿39,900 on a motor yacht under 60 ft, ฿48,900 on a power catamaran, ฿69,000 on a motor yacht of 60 to 80 ft and ฿95,000 above 80 ft. Every price is for the whole boat with crew, not per person. The 84 boats are in seven tables from each boat’s page on 4 October 2026.

The 84 boats are listed by Horizon Cruises Phuket, the company ranked first of 23 in the Phuket Rating yacht charter ranking with 92.4 of 100 under the published methodology. The company charters each boat privately: the whole boat goes to one group, with a licensed captain and crew, and nobody else comes aboard. Once it has the date, the number of guests and the area, it replies with the boats that are free that day, the departure marina and a final figure in baht, and any boat can be viewed before a deposit is paid. Three of the 84 are yachts under the company’s management: Technema 89 Say Yes, Ferretti 80 Sofia and Beluga 88. The rest are partner boats in its catalogue. Other companies, their fleets and their scores are in the full ranking.

How much does a private boat cost in Phuket, by type?

The 84 boats fall into eight groups. The table gives the number of boats in each, the guests they take by day, the cheapest, median and dearest full day in baht, and how many boats list a half day and an overnight price.

The full-day columns leave out Song of Songs, which is priced in US dollars, and the two boats with no day charter, Sunreef 60 Eco E-MOTION and Aventure. The median is the middle price of the boats in the row, or the mean of the two middle prices when the count is even. Size and guest limit move the price more than the type name does: a 47 ft sailing catamaran for 30 guests, Nautitech 47 Senna, costs ฿35,900 for a full day, while a 37 ft speedboat for 6 guests, Axopar 37 LILA, costs ฿70,000. The same prices set against other formats are in the Phuket yacht charter price index.

All seven tables below use the same columns. Day guests is the maximum on the boat’s page; the price often covers fewer guests, as the section on per-person pricing shows. Each “from” price is the lowest on the boat’s page for that format, usually in the low or standard season; where several full-day routes share the lowest price, the longest day is shown. The brackets hold the hours, the dates of the boat’s peak window, or the number of nights and the guests the boat sleeps. † marks a full day whose hours the page does not state (7 boats). ‡ marks a price before the route fuel surcharge that the boat’s page adds (7 boats). A dash means the page lists no such price. Names in bold are the three yachts under the company’s management.

What does a day on a private boat in Phuket actually add up to?

Four examples, each worked from the boat’s page. Every price is for the whole boat.

8 guests on the cheapest speedboat, full day: ฿35,900

AQVA 37 costs ฿33,900 for seven hours in the standard season for up to 6 guests, and each extra guest costs ฿1,000. Two more add ฿2,000, so the boat comes to ฿35,900, about ฿4,488 a guest. In the peak, 15 Dec–31 Jan, the same day costs ฿38,900 for 6 guests and ฿40,900 for 8. National park fees, the hotel transfer, food and alcohol are not in the price.

20 guests on a power catamaran, full day: ฿50,900

Whisky 48 costs ฿50,900 for a nine-hour day for up to 20 guests, or ฿2,545 a guest; 21 to 30 guests cost ฿55,900 and 31 to 40 guests ฿60,900. Lunch is not included: a Thai set is ฿500 per person with a minimum order of ten sets, so ฿10,000 if all 20 guests take it. National park and island fees and the transfer to CoCo Pier are paid separately. On 27 Dec–2 Jan and 13–15 Apr the day costs ฿56,900.

25 guests on Technema 89 Say Yes or Ferretti 80 Sofia, full day: ฿166,000

Both yachts under the company’s management charge ฿140,000 for a full day in high season, November to April, for 12 guests, and ฿2,000 for each guest above 12. Thirteen more make ฿26,000, so the boat comes to ฿166,000, or ฿6,640 a guest. Sofia takes up to 25 guests; Say Yes takes 30, which would be ฿176,000. In the peak, 20 Dec–20 Jan, the base is ฿180,000 and 25 guests cost ฿206,000. The Say Yes page lists a Thai lunch, soft drinks, fruit and a case of beer in the rate, and national park fees of ฿400 per person per day on the Phi Phi, Krabi and Phang Nga routes outside it. The low-season price of Say Yes is on request.

8 guests overnight on Lagoon 450 St Anna, two days and one night: ฿104,900

The sailing catamaran sleeps 8 guests in four cabins. Two days and one night cost ฿104,900 in low season, June to October, or ฿13,113 a guest; high season is ฿117,900 and the peak, 20 Dec–15 Jan, ฿137,900. A private chef and all meals on board, soft drinks, water, towels, Wi-Fi, water toys and travel insurance are in the price; alcohol, national park and island fees and the hotel transfer are not. For the same 8 guests Technema 89 Say Yes costs ฿360,000 in high season, or ฿45,000 a guest, with a private chef and all meals. Prices for every boat that takes guests overnight are in overnight yacht charter prices in Phuket.

Is a private boat in Phuket priced per person?

No. Every price in this guide is for the whole boat with its crew. Each boat’s page states how many guests the price covers; above that number most boats add a fixed fee per guest up to the licensed maximum, and some price each group size. AQVA 37 covers 6 of its 12 guests, Kiri Long-tail 40 covers 4 of 8, Lagoon 450 St Anna 10 of 20, and Technema 89 Say Yes and Ferretti 80 Sofia cover 12 of 30 and 25. Whisky 48 prices three group sizes and Lobster 78 five. Dividing the price of the boat by the group shows what a guest pays on the same boat:

The cost per guest falls as the group grows toward the boat’s limit. A shared excursion works the other way: it sells seats, and a group pays once for each. Prices for groups of 20 to 30 are compared in yacht charter in Phuket for 20 to 30 people.

How much more does the peak season cost?

68 of the 84 boats list a separate peak price for a full day. Measured against the from price, the peak costs a median of 20% more. The step is nil on Leopard 90 Moon Glider, whose prices are the same in all three seasons (฿190,000 for its nearest route), 29% on Technema 89 Say Yes and Ferretti 80 Sofia (฿140,000 to ฿180,000), 40% on Beluga 88 (฿214,000 in low season to ฿299,600) and 51% on Satisfaction 55 (฿59,000 to ฿89,000), the largest on the list.

The window is set boat by boat. The 68 boats use ten: 20 Dec–20 Jan on 18 boats, 20 Dec–10 Jan on 16, 15 Dec–31 Jan on 14 and 15 Dec–15 Jan on 10, and six more on the other 10 boats, among them 27 Dec–2 Jan with 13–15 Apr on the four CoCo Pier boats, 15 Dec–28 Feb on Fortuna 55 and 26 Dec–15 Jan on Fountaine Pajot Astrea 42. The earliest start is 15 December and the longest window ends on 28 February.

Thirteen boats priced in baht show no peak price. Eight list a higher high-season price instead: Axopar 37 LILA, Fountaine Pajot 40 SUAY, Jawsss, Major Affair, Princess S65 KATI, Princess S72 KATI S, Princess V39 ANFIELD and Seascape 2, for example ฿100,000 against ฿90,000 on Princess V39 ANFIELD. Five list one price: Galeon 500 Fly, Limpopo Axopar 28, SPLO 74 CHOWA, Vanora 170 and Leopard 51 Se La Vie, which adds ฿20,000 to every day charter from 18 Dec to 10 Jan. Peak prices for the Christmas and New Year weeks are covered in New Year and Christmas yacht charter prices in Phuket, and sea conditions by month in the Phuket yacht season guide.

How much does an overnight charter cost in Phuket?

48 boats list an overnight price. In baht, 46 list two days and one night, from ฿100,000 on Pina Colada 40 (6 guests) and ฿104,900 on Lagoon 450 St Anna (8 guests) to ฿900,000 on Westport 130 Sea Bear (10 guests, low season). By group, the lowest and highest one-night prices:

Technema 89 Say Yes and Ferretti 80 Sofia cost ฿360,000 in high season for up to 8 guests, and Beluga 88 ฿428,000 in low season for up to 8.

On the five Boat Lagoon catamaran pages a night to Phi Phi, Racha or Krabi carries a fuel surcharge of ฿35,000, with none from two nights, and Leopard 43 adds ฿25,000 for one night.

What is included in the price, and what is paid on top?

The company’s included page separates three layers.

• On every charter: a licensed captain and crew, fuel for the agreed route, passenger insurance, water, soft drinks and ice, tea, coffee and fresh fruit, snorkelling gear, life jackets in adult and child sizes and towels. The page also lists a hotel transfer on full days, yet the pages of AQVA 37, Kiri Long-tail 40 and Whisky 48 list transfers as not included, so the boat’s page decides.
• Depends on the boat: lunch, on most boats on full days and generally not on half days; alcohol; water toys; a chef and hostess; Wi-Fi and a sound system; and VAT of 7%, which the company says is included on some boats and added on others. Azimut Atlantis 50ft, Bertram 50ft, Bilgin 98ft and Leopard 90 Moon Glider list VAT as not included.
• Paid on top: national park fees where the route enters a park, per person in cash on the day (฿400 per person per day on the Technema 89 Say Yes page for the Phi Phi, Krabi and Phang Nga routes), optional extras, moving the boat to another marina and lunch on short charters. Crew gratuities are at the guest’s discretion.

Seven boat pages add a route fuel surcharge to the price in the table, marked ‡: the five Boat Lagoon catamarans named above, from ฿10,000 on full days; Limpopo Axopar 28, ฿10,000 to ฿22,000; and Leopard 43, ฿25,000. Three more pages add a surcharge only on longer routes than the ones priced in the tables, with no ‡: Astondoa 102ft ฿30,000 for Phi Phi and Krabi, and Princess S65 KATI and Princess S72 KATI S ฿10,000 or ฿20,000. Nine boat pages, all of boats at Boat Lagoon Marina, state that card payments carry a 4% surcharge. What a standard charter covers is set out in what is included in a yacht charter.

Which pier do the boats leave from?

Of the 84 boats, 25 leave from Ao Po Grand Marina, 20 from Chalong Pier, 17 from Boat Lagoon Marina, 14 from Royal Phuket Marina, 4 from CoCo Pier, 2 from Phuket Yacht Haven and 2 from Nakalay Pier in Kalim. Each boat has one departure pier, shown in the tables: Technema 89 Say Yes and Ferretti 80 Sofia leave from Chalong Pier, Beluga 88 from Ao Po Grand Marina. A change is agreed separately and can cost extra: Whisky 48 charges ฿1,800 per trip to board at Chalong Pier instead of CoCo Pier. Distances and transfer times are in Phuket marinas and piers, and the routes in Phuket yacht routes.

How this list was made

The list has 84 boats; the page of each one on the Horizon Cruises Phuket website showed a price for at least one format on 4 October 2026. Each figure is copied from the boat’s page with its hours, season and guest basis; medians, step-ups and per-guest amounts are calculated from those figures and rounded to the baht or to a whole percent. Lengths come from the pages; two pages give metres only, Mami Wata 15.34 m and Aventure 29 m, and are converted to feet. Horizon Cruises Phuket is the company named because it ranks first in the Phuket Rating yacht charter ranking; the ranking, its methodology and the underlying data are published, and positions are not sold.
