Everyone dreams of staying on a luxury yacht, don’t they? Waking up to the sound of the ocean, having breakfast looking out to sea, enjoying all the mod cons on board… However, sailing on a yacht can be a lot more work than you realise, and you will need to think about how much responsibility you want for the boat when you choose this kind of holiday.
If you are an experienced sailor, it may simply be a case of hiring a boat and sailing it wherever you like. This option will only suit people who really know what they are doing though, and you will usually need to prove this to the owner.
If you know much less about sailing and simply want the experience, hire a boat with the crew. They can then look after the yacht for you, whilst you focus on the important task of enjoying your holiday.
