PHUKET BOAT LAGOON

GROW your boating lifestyle with Thailand’s premier marina

As the saying goes, “Necessity is the mother of invention” and that is how the history of Thailand’s first and premier marina – Phuket Boat Lagoon – started 30 years ago. Now Phuket Boat Lagoon is Phuket’s first integrated marina complex.

This development, which today is a fully developed ‘Lifestyle Marina Village’, is the brainchild of the Founder and Chairman, Khun Kanit Yongsakul. 

Officially opened in 1994, the marina is situated at the end of a two-mile creek, Klong Tha Rua, on the east coast of Phuket in southern Thailand. The circular marina provides moorings for vessels up to 32 metres long. Most sailors consider the complex to be on par with other leading marinas across the globe.

Located strategically in the centre of Phuket Island, traffic from the international airport, using the main highway, must pass our entrance to get to Phuket town or the west coast beaches. We are 25 km from the airport, 10 km to Phuket town, and 20 km to Kata, Karon and Patong beaches.

Phuket Boat Lagoon was intended to be a marina first; then, with increased demand and need, hardstand facilities were introduced with travel lift services.

“We are focused on being the region’s leader, in the boating and hospitality industry. We aim to excel in our core businesses, which are boating and lifestyle retail, by providing the quality standard for the community that we care for”, says Boon Yongsakul, Managing Director of Phuket Boat Lagoon.

As the marine industry in Thailand took a greater step, with Phuket becoming the region’s hub, vast opportunity was shining for Phuket Boat Lagoon’s expansion.

With international yachting and marine businesses making Phuket and Phuket Boat Lagoon their base, there was an increasing need for this complex to cater for the growth.

The marina complex itself is surrounded by shop-office lots for a wide range of businesses, including marine-related, lifestyle, commercial, financial services and an international early learning school.

The marina village has a 271-room resort, which caters to both the yachting community and business and leisure travellers. The marina complex itself is surrounded by shop-office lots for a wide range of businesses, including marine-related, lifestyle, commercial, financial services – and even an international school.

The Phuket Boat Lagoon village also comprises residential developments, ranging from condominium townhouses to villas and bungalows. These residential areas are available for both ownership and long-term lease.

Next, the marina took a greater step towards on-water and off-water expansion. Today, the Phuket Boat Lagoon is an international standard, full-service marina with 180 berths in the water, 160 on the hardstand and 22 dry stacking bays.

Other facilities include a fuel dock, three marine travel lifts with capacity from 40 tons up to 120 tons, forklift services up to 6 tons, a large concrete work area (hardstand) and a concrete boat ramp 7.8 metres wide.

All berths are complete with power and water. The marina is also equipped with 24-hour security service, high network CCTV coverage, firefighting services and security controlled access to the marina pontoons.

Beside providing complimentary wireless internet, the marina also offers storage room rentals for short and long-term needs. A well-protected marina, Phuket Boat Lagoon is ideal for owners to keep their yacht long term.

The resort NH Boat Lagoon Phuket Resort is a hotel resort with 271 rooms and full-service apartments. These apartments, with their nautical décor and ambience, are unique in Phuket.

The Lagoon Quay, located on the ground floor of the marina zone, consists of a collection of dining outlets and marine oriented businesses – overlooking the beautiful marina with its moored yachts and pleasure craft.

The marina complex today houses a wide range of businesses, services and products – meaning that boat owners, residents or hotel guests may not need to travel out of the marina village.

Phuket Boat Lagoon has everything – from fully-fledged banking services, an international supermarket, ice skating rink, dental and skin clinics, a pharmacy, a wide range of restaurants, bars, business service offices, health centres (spa, yoga, martial arts, gymnasium), car rental services, car wash, laundry, daily island tour operators and private yacht charters.

For avid boaters, the marina boasts chandleries, electronic parts, navigational systems, fibre and stainless-steel repairs, woodwork including teak wood and much more. Furthermore, Phuket Boat Lagoon has a large workshop specialising in stainless steel and welding works.

Additionally, to enhance our service to boat owners, we are equipped with a licensed Bonded Warehouse – which is our one-stop centre for the importation of tax-free marine parts. Our Bonded Warehouse also provides services for repairs, with a team of experienced yacht repair technicians, to carry out work on your boat.

Today, Phuket Boat Lagoon has branded itself as ‘Phuket’s Most Lively Marina’ and to live up to the tagline, regular activities and events are organised for the residents, guests and visitors. “I’m proud to be associated with a group that has a wonderful vision and places great importance on its prime role in promoting the marine industry in Thailand. The owners are truly ‘people-orientated’ and the team at Phuket Boat Lagoon is well experienced and a pleasure to work with”, says Executive Director, Wicky Sundram.
