Luxury Yacht Charter Singapore
Yacht Charter in Singapore
The Asia-Pacific region encompasses some of the most sensational sailing grounds in the world. The region is characterized by small collections of tropical islands dotted in the emerald blue waters off mainland Asia, their beaches white and deserted, and their coves and caves just waiting to be explored. Singapore, which this year hosted its first yacht show in a brand new luxury marina in the centre of the city, is very much the hub of what is being dubbed the ‘third destination’ in sailing terms and great lengths are being taken to ensure the facilities here are first class.
