The Lagoon Escapade Thailand held from November 9th to 10th proved to be another huge success. Lagoon Asia-Pacific feel grateful to the tremendous support of our new dealer in the Kingdom ASIAMARINE who hosted it for the first time and did an amazing job, as well as to the enthusiasm of the ever-growing Lagoon community in Southeast Asia. 

This year, 8 Lagoon catamarans made up of the diverse fleet. Day One was rally day. Departing from Ao Po Grand Marina after breakfast and captain briefings, the happy fleet sailed up to Lawa Noi Island where the rally started. In the afternoon, when all the participants arrived at Koh Naka Noi where they anchored for relaxing, reconnecting and enjoying  BBQ dinner on the beach. 

The second day of fun continued at Koh Naka Noi, where guests enjoyed interactive programs organized by ASIAMARINE, such as treasure hunt, leisure activities on water, and etc. After lunch, the Lagoon Escapade came to an end, the participants bid each other farewell and looked forward to the 2025 edition.

On November 23rd, our dealer in New Zealand 36 Degrees Brokers organized a Lagoon owners rally for a memorable day filled with sailing, camaraderie, and celebration.

The Lagoon fleet set sail to the stunning Kawau Island, with Lidgard House providing a perfect ambience of coziness and relaxation. Guests enjoyed a day packed with thrilling races, beach games, interactive activities, and boatie bingo, all amidst the beautiful setting of the Island.

Although the weather wasnt perfectly sunny, the steady wind made for excellent sailing conditions, and the rain held off, allowing everyone to fully enjoy the day. The atmosphere was filled with laughter, friendship, and shared adventures, making it clear that a fantastic time was had by all.
