Asia’s Favourite Boat Show

PIMEX, now in its seventh year, is South East Asia’s premier annual boating and lifestyle show and a leader in the growth of Thailand’s marine tourism, on-water leisure and island lifestyle. It is Thailand’s home-grown waterfront show featuring boats, marine equipment, property, yachting holidays, luxury vehicles – in fact everything to do with island lifestyle and the on-water leisure activities that are so much a part of that lifestyle.

PIMEX is the perfect opportunity for any business connected with island lifestyle to put its products and services in front of the maximum number of people in a perfect environment.

Waterfront Show

Based in a spectacular award winning operational marina, PIMEX takes place waterside in a 'working' marine environment.

More Boats in the Water

With more brokers than any other boating destination in the region, PIMEX puts boats in the water - the main attraction of any boat show.

Serious Buyers

4,000 visitors come to PIMEX each year, including almost 3,000 qualified trade visitors. Most visitors are either in the marine business, are boat owners (personal and corporate) or are considering buying a boat. PIMEX attracts only a small number of uninterested 'sightseers'.

• Thai national leisure boat owners (a new market, but starting to become significant)
