7 Night Cruise sailing from Singapore roundtrip aboard Sea Dream II.

Let's face it! Some vacations at sea can be boring. But a holiday with SeaDream Yacht Club is something new. Unstructured! Unexpected! A casual, free-form holiday with plenty of room for personal choice.

We are not a cruise line. Quite simply, yachting is different from cruising. Yachting has an open casual ambience. Cruising does not. Yachting provides guests the ability to fulfill their dreams at their own pace without having to stick to a rigid fixed schedule. With yachting it's no clocks, no crowds, no lines, no stress.

Our twin mega yachts, SeaDream I and SeaDream II offer seven-day Caribbean and Mediterranean sailings. The elegant twins call at smaller yacht ports. There's lots of water sports activity. "Water Toys" including wave runners, kayaks, snorkel gear, Sunfish and Zodiacs for water skiing. If you feel lazy you can snooze on deck in private Balinese sun beds---designed for two. Fun under the sun or indoors. And dining with SeaDream is superb whether you are in our main Dining Salon or up on deck in our Topside Restaurant. In short, the SeaDream twins offer guests the ultimate in the elegant, but, oh so casual yachting lifestyle. An intimate, friendly, comfortable, romantic yachting experience where you can always expect the unexpected.

Highlights of this cruise:

Singapore
Lee Kuan Yew, first and longest reigning Prime Minister of Singapore, stepped down in 1990. Known as 'father of Singapore,' Mr. Lee's guidance unquestionably created an economic marvel and model safe society out of a chaotic post-war, post-colonial state. The rules are tough, but clear. Jaywalkers are fined on the spot. Drop litter - and you pay (smokers beware!). Explore the city-state's impressive modernity and tradition in its architecture. I.M. Pei's striking Gateway and Moshe Safdie's Marin Bay Sands point the way to the future, but don't miss the handsome Old Parliament House.

Pangkor Island
Pulau Pangkor, just off the central Malaysian coast was probably first settled when refugees fled in the path of powerful armies that swept along the peninsula. Later, with expanding European spice trade, pirates discovered hidden Pangkor coves, but modern 'settlers' gather to enjoy sun and sand at places like Pantai Puteri Dewi, Teluk Belanga, and Pasir Bogak. There are also quiet coves at Tortoise Bay, Teluk Nipah and Teluk Chempedak. The main island town is known as Pangkor Village, but beaches and plush resorts are the main attractions.

Tarutao Island (Ko Tarutao)
Ko Tarutao is a relatively large island of 150 square kilometers, and aside from the concrete road the terrain is rugged and mountainous with several peaks stretching more than 500 meters high; it's no wonder the TV show Survivor Thailand was filmed here. The Malay word "tarutao" means old, mysterious and primitive, and today Ko Tarutao retains these qualities even though it's been bisected by a long path of blazing white concrete. Perhaps more than anywhere in Thailand, Ko Tarutao is a haven for wildlife. Sea turtles, whales, monitor lizards, crab-eating macaques, mouse deer, and countless species of birds all call the island and its surrounding waters home. It's not the optimal place for snorkelling since the water is murky compared to other Andaman islands, but for most, the clean and expansive whitesand beaches, diverse wildlife, waterfalls, caves, hiking and views more than compensate.

Phuket
Roughly the size of Singapore, Phuket is widely known for its fine resorts, but it also showcases traditional Thai culture and a spectacular natural interior. Sheer limestone crags thrust from scenic Phang Nga Bay off the island's northern tip, creating a peaceful refuge from 'it all.' For another kind of Thai serenity, visit South Phuket's Wat Chalong. Its Grand Pagoda, one of the island's most revered sites, preserves a fragment of Lord Buddha's bone. After touring, curl up on a quiet section of Ao Patong (Patong Beach), on the southwestern shore.

A Dang Island (Taratao NP)
Tarutao National Park in Thailand's southern Satun Province is as close to the essence of paradise as it gets. If you are looking for a spectacular coral reef and a private stretch of sugary white sand, you have come to the right place. Other than the color of the sea, which defies description, nothing further needs to be said about Ko A Dang, second largest island in the archipelago.

Pinang Island (Pulau Pinang)
One of 13 Malaysian states, Penang Island is just 110 sq mi/285 sq km in size. Once dominion of the Sultan of Kedah, it was always more or less an independent place until the British Raj arrived. In 1786, Captain Francis Light acquired Penang from the Sultan on behalf of the British East India Company. Georgetown is a pleasant place of colonial architecture and atmosphere. Fort Cornwallis' weathered walls are just about the center of town, and the fort - Captain Light's landing site - is one of Penang's oldest English structures.
