Asia has long been seen as an emerging superyacht destination, but is it finally becoming a serious alternative to the Mediterranean and the Caribbean?
In this video, David Seal explores some of the region’s most compelling cruising grounds, from Thailand and Indonesia to Japan, the Maldives and beyond. Using data from the @Superyacht Times Asia Pacific Report 2026, he looks at the growth in superyacht activity across the region and explains why more owners and charterers are beginning to discover what Asia has to offer.
Rather than focusing on regulations and infrastructure, this first part concentrates on the destinations themselves. From the dramatic limestone islands of Thailand and the extraordinary marine biodiversity of Raja Ampat to Japan’s unique cruising grounds and the growing appeal of the Maldives, David explains why these destinations deserve far more attention from the global yachting community.
The video also considers the practical realities of cruising in Asia, including climate, distances between destinations and the importance of local knowledge, before looking ahead to the second part of the series, which will examine the investment, infrastructure and government initiatives shaping the future of superyachting across the region.
If you’ve ever wondered whether Asia could become the next great superyacht cruising destination, this is the perfect place to start.
