No sailing experience is needed
All of our private boat charter sailing holidays are fully crewed with knowledgeable and experienced sailors, so you really don’t need any sailing experience. Guests are welcome to get as involved as they’d like with the sailing of our boats, and you are equally welcome to sit back and enjoy the views. From hoisting the sails, taking the helm, chart reading or even having a go at splicing some rope, there is always something interesting happening at sea if you want to join in.
A world of opportunities
You’ll have the chance to relax as your skipper takes the helm, guiding you through crystal-clear waters to quaint fishing villages, bustling towns and idyllic beaches. A whole world of opportunities awaits, with destinations as enticing as the breathtaking Hebrides, the wilderness of the Arctic Circle and even the azure waters of the British Virgin Islands. So whether you’re looking for pristine white sands, ancient history or mouth-watering meals, we can fine-tune a bespoke private boat charter itinerary to suit your perfect sailing holiday.
From day charters to weekend private charter boat trips or even a weeks adventure; with locations ranging from Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly to Devon to Scotland, France and the Channel Islands, work with us to create a bespoke private charter sailing holiday just for you.
Head over to our Destinations page to see where our boats could take you.
Even if a boat you’re interested in is not listed below, please do double-check; if there is time available in your schedule, all of our fleet will consider a private charter opportunity.
