If you’re looking to take a break from your hectic daily routines with your family, a yacht is a surprisingly affordable and fun way to travel.
From surfing on the beach to island hopping and scuba diving with underwater creatures, a vacation on a yacht offers so many wonderful opportunities. From my experiences, here are the top 5 reasons to consider a family vacation on a yacht!
1. Freedom
If you rent a yacht for your next vacation, you are the ship’s owner and sole decision maker. You can sail literally wherever you want and whenever you want! Also, as you sail in the ocean you have the highest degree of privacy and peace.
2. Cost Effective for Groups
Yacht charters are comparatively less expensive and cost effective if you are traveling in a group – like a large family trip. This is contrary to popular belief that yacht charters are expensive and only for the rich. Yachts are available in a wide variety of options to select from with many reasonable models available. The yachts themselves are different lengths and their services can be tailored as per your requirements and budget. High end luxurious yachts are also available but they are for the people who wish to spend lavishly.
3. The Perfect Vacation
Think of vacationing on a yacht as sailing in a beautiful floating villa. In your floating villa you can travel anywhere and discover many new and exciting places. You can also adjust your island hopping to meet your interests and defined level of luxury and comfort. From suba diving to swimming and beaches, you can have it all!
The best part is that you are traveling with your loved ones and will have significant time together.
4. Wildlife
Don’t forget to bring a camera along with you on your family yacht adventure! Depending on your location, you can see rare species of birds, flora, and fauna and really see the ocean and its natural habitat.
5. Simplicity – you have a staff!
Most yacht rental companies will provide a staff on board for the duration of your trip. They do everything from providing refreshments, soft drinks, fresh towels and fishing equipments to assisting in whatever you need. They fulfill all the safety norms and have the insurance in case of any miss-happening.
