Island Cruising

Since 1993, Rising Tide has cruised the fabled islands of the Indian Ocean, Phuket and Langkawi, the Mergui Archipelago in Burma and remote Andaman Islands. Her log has included the Indonesian islands east of Borneo - Sulawesi, Bali and Lombok - and beyond to Nusa Tengara (Makassar and Komodo). She is also at home in the Tioman island group of peninsular Malaysia. She has covered the Java Sea, the Sunda Straits, and the Riau Archipelago. All these sails were completed as private holidays as well as charters for individuals, groups and institutions.
You are in a region born from the sea, in the centre of the legendary trade winds that shaped the history of mankind. The same winds are still blowing here, making for a year-round sailing season to explore nearby Malaysian and Indonesian islands. (Click Charts for suggested cruising itineraries)
