Your Next Sailing Holiday: When it's Time for Something Different
If you've travelled the Mediterranean and are looking for somewhere different to sail in Europe, there are plenty of possibilities to the north.
Western and Northern France beckon, less crowded on the water and potentially more invigorating for the sailing enthusiast.
