Comprising over eight hundred islands and covering an area of
ten thousand square metres, Myeik Archipelago has been closed to
all foreigners for well over fifty years. This area is totally
untouched by modern development with a rich history of maritime
trade.
The modern day Myeik Archipelago is paradise for nature
lovers. Due to the archipelago's virtual isolation, the islands
and surrounding seas are alive with an amazing diversity of
wildlife, flora and fauna. Coral reefs, seagrass beds and
mangroves flourish mainly in the Myeik Archipelago.
Sailing in the archipelago is a truly refreshing
experience. While exploring the primary tropical rain forest
that covers the islands, snorkeling on pristine coral reefs,
relaxing on board, sea kayaking, diving to meet under water
inhabitants or strolling along untouched beaches. the sense of
isolation from the modern world is overpowering.
In this area sailing yacht operation has been permitted
since 1997 and uptil now there are 30 licenced liveaboard
companies, operating tours from October to April.
