Bareboat Yacht Charter

Skippered Yacht Charter

Sail with a hired captain and/or cook for a relaxed and catered holiday. Whether you have no sailing experience, want a helping hand or just want to take it easy, a skipper will take responsibility at the helm. They will also use their local knowledge to show you all the best sights of the area. Let Sunsail do all the work so that you can do all the relaxing!

Flotilla holidays

Flotillas are the ultimate in social sailing. They’re like a Bareboat Charter, but you cruise with up to 14 other boats full of like minded people, supported by a lead boat with technician, skipper, and hostess. Sailing on a Flotilla is an easy way to enjoy a sailing holiday with the freedom to do as you please, but always knowing there is help at hand should you need it.

With just a little experience you can start out on our level 0 Flotillas and enjoy the security of sailing with a lead crew who are experts in the local area. A Sunsail Flotilla in the Caribbean or Mediterranean offers the perfect balance of independence and support whenever you need it. They’re a great way to discover new destinations, even for more experienced sailors.

Sailing Courses

Sunsail sailing schools are perfect for singles, couples, families and friends of all ages. If you want to do something different, then learning to sail will provide you with a skill that will open your life up to a whole new world. Your free-time will never be the same again. You will be able to fly to anywhere in the world and set sail to discover the world by water.

With courses to suit everyone, you can invite your friends and family to see the world with Sunsail and get them as passionate about sailing as we are. A Caribbean Sailing School program is offered from Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. We have sailing schools in the UK, British Virgin Islands, Thailand and Australia.
