Skippered Sailing Holidays

A skippered sailing holiday lets you enjoy the privacy and flexibility of your own yacht without needing to manage every manoeuvre. Your skipper handles the sailing and brings valuable local knowledge, while you decide how active—or gloriously inactive—you want each day to be.

Skippers know where to find peaceful lunch stops, sheltered anchorages and atmospheric harbours that are easy to miss from a guidebook. You can get involved at the helm, pick up new skills or leave the sailing entirely to them. It is a reassuring choice for first-time guests, families and groups with mixed experience.

From a relaxed week in Greece to island-hopping in Croatia, Mallorca or the Caribbean, a skipper opens up destinations that may otherwise feel daunting. The result feels personal rather than packaged: your yacht, your companions and a route shaped around the weather and what everyone enjoys most.
