Sports Breaks > Sailing and Boating

Take to the waters on a sailing or boating holiday. Experience the ultimate in relaxation as you sail peacefully downstream or choose the ‘hands on’ approach and get some speed up!

 

We can help qualified sailors charter the ideal boat for their needs, be it a small yacht or a beautiful barge. You then have the freedom of the seas – go where you want at a pace that suits you. If you don’t wish to sail the boat yourself, we can arrange a captain to take care of the voyage while you sit back and relax. If you are feeling particularly flash, you can hire a whole crew!

 

A sailing holiday is the perfect chance for a little bonding with family or friends. Kids will love learning to sail, and we can provide expert tuition for any level of learner. If boats seem a little cumbersome, why not try windsurfing? Another activity that really appeals to young people, windsurfing puts you at one with the elements unlike almost any other activity.

• Learn to sail and windsurf in Menorca with an experienced instructor in the warm and shallow waters of the Mediterranean
• Relax on the river and enjoy the scenery of the French countryside as you sail into the sun in a self-drive Penichette
• Take an Ionian Flotilla sailing holiday around the Greek islands and explore the beautiful islands, beaches and coves along the way
• Cruise around the Venice Lagoon on a romantic getaway and enjoy some of Europe’s finest monuments and landscapes, alongside spectacular views of the horizon
• Charter your own private yacht and sail round the Whitsunday islands in Australia to enjoy fantastic snorkelling in the turquoise waters of the Great Barrier Reef

When arranging a boating holiday, bear in mind the number of people you wish to share the experience with. An appropriate yacht can be hired for any number of people, even Giorgio Armani’s super-stylish Mariú can be hired for the right price (over £200,000 for a week, if you’re interested).

 

When booking a sailing holiday, be sure to make it at an appropriate level for you. Remember, you can always hire someone to do the sailing for you while you sit back and relax.
