Malaysia yacht charter reviews, companies, pictures, and sailing vacation information

Rainforests, hidden lakes, and ancient temples in jungles, white sandy beaches, and crystal clear turquoise waters – all of this awaits if you choose a chartering holiday in Malaysiam good for sailboats and power yachts! Sailing conditions in Malaysia are distinguished into two separate seasons: the dry season (northeast monsoon season) and the wet season (southwest monsoon season). The dry season lasts approximately from November to April, and is known for calm winds at 3 to 6 knots that come from the northeast. This is the ideal season for sailing or yacht chartering as waters are calm and the weather is consistently dry and sunny. The wet season has strong gusts of wind, occasional heavy rain showers, and rough seas in which the wind speed can reach 50 knots. These conditions can make for exhilarating sailing, and many still choose to set out during the southwest monsoon season – just be prepared for some truly exciting, on your toes sailing!
