While we’re not a travel agency, we’re more than happy to assist with key elements that support your sailing holiday. Our expertise lies in organizing every aspect of your yacht charter, including transfers between the charter base and your arrival point or accommodation, as well as offering advice on provisioning your boat either remotely or upon arrival.

We also draw on extensive firsthand knowledge of the sailing destinations we serve. Many of our team have sailed these waters themselves, so we’re well-placed to offer guidance on local travel logistics, shopping, dining, and must-see experiences.

If you have general questions about getting to and from your charter base, or want advice on how to make the most of your time before or after your sail, just ask—we’re always glad to help. However we cannot help with booking travel, accommodation or other services unrelated to the charter itself.
