Sailing Destinations
Itineraries, harbour guides, top sights and charter options for the world's best sailing grounds.
Antigua & the Leewards
Antigua English Harbour is the heartbeat of Caribbean sailing — home of the famous Sailing Week, one of the world's oldest yacht races. The Leeward Islands stretch from Antigua north through Nevis, St Kitts, and St Barts.
Balearic Islands, Spain
Mallorca, Ibiza, Menorca, and Formentera form the Mediterranean's most popular sailing grounds outside Greece. Light summer thermals, crystal-clear water, and a coast ranging from party marinas in Ibiza to the wild northern shores of Menorca.
British Virgin Islands
The BVI is the bareboat capital of the Caribbean — consistent trade winds, calm seas between islands, and the famous Baths at Virgin Gorda. The Sir Francis Drake Channel is one of the most beautiful sailing routes in the world.
Croatia
Over a thousand islands between Split and Dubrovnik make Croatia one of Europe's finest sailing destinations. The Kornati archipelago is a national park; the Dalmatian coast has some of the most atmospheric harbour towns in the Mediterranean.
East Anglia
The Norfolk Broads and Suffolk rivers — ideal for leisurely motorboat hire.
Ionian Islands, Greece
Corfu, Lefkada, Kefalonia, Ithaca, Zakynthos — the Ionian Sea is the classic first-time Mediterranean charter. Predictable summer meltemi from the north, clear turquoise water, and tavernas within walking distance of every anchorage.
Martinique & St Lucia
The French Antilles offer a different Caribbean — dramatic volcanic peaks, French culture, rum distilleries, and passage sailing between islands with proper Atlantic swell. Base yourself in Le Marin or Rodney Bay and work north through the Windward Islands.
Midlands
England's inland canal network — perfect for narrowboat holidays.
Solent
The UK's most popular sailing waters, sheltered between the mainland and the Isle of Wight.
South East
Kent and Sussex marinas with easy cross-Channel access.
South West
Cornwall, Devon and Dorset — dramatic coastlines and some of England's best cruising.
Turkey — Aegean & Turquoise Coast
The Turkish coastline from Bodrum to Göcek stretches for hundreds of miles of protected bays, ancient ruins, and some of the most affordable gulet and bareboat charter in the Mediterranean.
West Scotland
The Scottish sea lochs and islands offer world-class cruising in dramatic, remote scenery.
