THE KING AND THE QUEEN OF THAILAND ABOARD AN IGUANA

In April, a sailing event took place in Thailand, the 36th Edition of the Phuket King’s Cup Regatta. One of Asia’s most prestigious yacht racing events traces its origins to a heartfelt tribute. In 1986, members of Thailand’s yachting community envisioned a special celebration for His Majesty the King’s 60th birthday, observed on December 5, 1987. Their discussions led to the creation of a Royal Regatta, hosted in the stunning Andaman Sea waters off Phuket.

Over the years, the event has grown significantly. Now a key feature of the Asian Yachting Circuit, it attracts over 90 boats and 2,000 sailors annually. Today, the Phuket King’s Cup Regatta stands as a symbol of excellence, tradition, and the enduring allure of sailing in the Andaman Sea.
