Scenic Sailing: Gulf of Thailand

  • Scenic tropical coastline with lush greenery

Surrounded by palm-lined shores, idyllic resort towns and bustling port cites, the Gulf of Thailand provides an enriching glimpse of seaside locales in Southeast Asia. Home to a large diversity of marine life, the waters themselves also draw admirers of some of the world’s most elusive sea creatures. Whale watching ships set off from shore hoping to spot Eden’s whales and rare dwarf fin whales, sometimes encountering the Chinese white dolphin, Irrawaddy dolphin, manatee-like dugongs and the endangered hawksbill turtle.
