Why choose a boating holiday

What if we took a vacation on board this summer? Who is unfamiliar with navigation might take that as a provocation because sailing on crystal clear waters to discover different places every day may seem an experience reserved for a privileged few.

5 excellent reasons to spend your holidays on a boat

Nothing so far from reality, compared to the classic beach holidays, when you stay with your family in a hotel of medium-high level.

In this case, to the cost of the hotel we will have to add that of the inevitable movements and the eventual beach resort besides, of course, the costs for the food, for the evening amusement and for the various recreational and sporting activities for children and adults. Not to mention the desire to visit new places, renting a vehicle to reach other locations or just a beach not too crowded. Provided, of course, that this is accessible by land.

If you have a boat available, however, everything changes. Relying on charter, this type of vacation is possible for more people than you think. This holiday is possible for who do not own a boat, both for those but also for those who can not ride a boat and must rely on the skills of a skipper..

Desire for freedom

Among the first, excellent reasons to choose this type of holiday we find the freedom. Both to choose our itinerary and our stops, both to live the holiday hours in complete autonomy, certain of being surrounded only by friendly people and the blue sea. No dress code, no limits on lunch and dinner, relaxation and activities. Without mandatory hours, except those agreed with those who sail with us, we can freely decide when and how to eat, without wasting time on preparations and travel, but only organizing ourselves in the division of tasks.

Deserted beaches

Freedom of movement involves the conquest of otherwise inaccessible places. We are not only talking about beaches reachable by sea, but also about solitary coves where only the most athletic tourists can arrive, because they are connected by difficult paths or because they are far from the busy streets. EIf enjoying the sunset and the starry sky in absolute silence is a real gift, diving into the crystal clear sea of a deserted bay is a pleasure like no other.

The boat deck all to itself

Exploring the coast with postcard beaches we can alternate the safety and tranquility of the bridge. Without sand that sticks to the skin just sprinkled with sunscreen and no pebbles that annoy us, the boat is a happy oasis for those who aspire to a few hours of sweet doing nothing. Alternating the reading of a beautiful book, the contemplation of the horizon, chatting with family and friends or, simply, savoring the scent of the sea and listening to the sound of the wind.

A dip where the water is bluer

The coolest alternative to sunbathing is obviously a dip in the sea. From the boat we can enjoy beautiful dives in deep and transparent waters. Here we can find fascinating creatures and enchanting depths that diving enthusiasts can reach with the appropriate equipment. But even those who swim on the surface can admire this spectacle, becoming one with a surprising and constantly changing nature.

Vision change

The boat holiday also allows us to experience a different way of relating to others, nature and ourselves. Whether you choose to live it as a couple, as a family or with friends, it will still be an enlightening experience, which will lead us to see our loved ones in a new perspective, dealing with different needs than daily ones. Patience, attention, practical spirit and adaptation will make us discover our ability to provide for the needs of the here and now. Detaching from those thoughts that seemed to us priority on the ground and that now, with times and needs dictated by nature, finally appear much smaller.
