You don’t need a yacht to join Phuket’s monthly Grow Boating Evening, though you may leave wanting one. The Royal Phuket Marina meet-up keeps things casual, bringing together newcomers, island regulars, boat people and the generally curious for an easy networking session by the water. This month’s edition comes with a buffet from Bluu Asian Kitchen & Bar, drinks from Blue Paradise and Aqua Thrill, and enough harbour-side chatter to carry you well into the weekend. Think less hard sell, more sunset catch-up with a nautical edge.
July 3. Free. Grow Boating Phuket Evening, Bluu Asian Kitchen & Bar, Royal Phuket Marina. 5pm-8pm
