Join‑In Weekend Cruise — Friendly & Chilled

A relaxed 2‑night join‑in cruise to Phi Phi designed for travellers who enjoy good company, warm sunsets and calm bays — but still appreciate having their own space when they want it. Whether you come solo, as a couple or with a small group, Merdeka makes it easy to meet new friends while keeping your privacy whenever you choose.

The boat has four welcoming social areas that naturally bring people together — and just as easily let you chill on your own:

• The covered aft deck with a dining table and couch seating, perfect for shared meals, sunset chats or quiet morning coffee.

• The covered massage deck above the cabins, a breezy, shaded space ideal for relaxing, reading or gentle conversation.

• The forward open deck, great for sunning, chilling, fishing or simply enjoying the view in peace.

• The upstairs aft roof deck, your go‑to spot for sunbathing, sunset drinks and late‑night quiet time with new friends — comfortably away from the cabins.

This is a weekend where you can be social without pressure, private without isolation, and part of a friendly little community exploring the islands together.

Warm sunsets, calm bays, good food, good people — island life, the gentle way.

Your Weekend Party Itinerary

FRIDAY — Sunset Departure + Island Sleepover

• Kick off your adventure from Chalong Pier in Phuket. We cruise toward a nearby island for your first night — calm water, sunset colours, music, drinks and that magical “we’re really doing this” feeling. Sleep in a quiet bay close to Phuket, either in a cabin or under the stars.

SATURDAY — Phi Phi Adventures + Nightlife Ashore

• Wake up to turquoise water and breakfast on deck before heading to Phi Phi. Spend the day swimming, snorkelling, exploring lagoons and enjoying the scenery.

• As evening arrives, we anchor near Phi Phi Don — giving you the chance to go ashore and sample the nightlife after dinner onboard. Bars, music, dancing, fire shows… Phi Phi knows how to throw a party. Return to the boat whenever you’re ready for sleep (or more snacks).

SUNDAY — Chill Beaches + Slow Cruise Home

• Sunday is your recovery day. We visit quiet beaches and bays for easy swims and relaxed morning vibes. Then we cruise slowly back toward Phuket, arriving in Chalong Bay by late afternoon — perfect timing for flights or onward travel.
