Motor yachts and sailboats are two parallel universes and the impressions of a holiday on them are radically different.
Let’s immediately outline the main terms and formats. Yacht tourism is a type of recreation when a tourist leaves his permanent place of residence for a trip, during which his main means of transportation and stay (overnight) is a small vessel (sailing or motor yacht).

In this article, we will discuss the trip on a sailing yacht, which is considered the most popular format of yacht tourism.

Perhaps the most difficult task when planning a trip on a sailing yacht will be to decide on the route and time of your trip. The beauty of yacht tourism is that you can enjoy it all year round and almost anywhere in the world! From April to October, the countries of the Mediterranean (Greece, Croatia, Spain, Italy, Turkey) or Northern Europe (Great Britain, France, Germany, Holland, Scandinavian or Baltic countries) are popular, in winter – the islands of the Caribbean, the Indian Ocean (Seychelles, Maldives, Mauritius ), the Canary Islands or the countries of Southeast Asia (Thailand, Malaysia), as well as a host of other exotic destinations.

After you have decided on the direction and dates of the trip, you should decide whether you want to travel only with your family or a large group.

The tour organizer will select a yacht or catamaran (a vessel consisting of two parallel hulls connected by a common deck) that is ideal for a group of any size. In fact, a yacht or a catamaran is a large apartment with a kitchen, separate bathrooms, a spacious living room – a wardroom. Depending on the number of travelers, the yacht will be small – for 2 double cabins (rooms) – or for 5-6 cabins. Accordingly, you can invite another 10-12 people on your trip, which, by the way, will significantly reduce the cost of renting a vessel and general expenses.

In addition to choosing a yacht, AURAMAR  provides the services of a professional and charismatic skipper (captain), who becomes your Odyssey for the entire trip, and also takes responsibility for the technical, logistical and legal support of the tour. The standard duration of a yacht cruise is 7-10 days. The program (route) is initially offered by a travel company and takes into account the wishes of the tourist. As a rule, during this time you will be able to visit 4-5 locations with attractions. Some of them are only accessible from the water, and standard excursions are not sold there. For example, in Greece there are a huge number of uninhabited islands located outside the routes of regular scheduled ferries. You can visit these places only on a yacht, that is, you will have the opportunity to get experiences that are not available to other tourists. You can steer the yacht exactly where you want and drop anchor at a time and place that suits you. If you want – explore all the islands on the route, no – spend a trip on the island you like the most.

And this is also the uniqueness of yachting: the route can be drawn up in advance or changed along the way, which means that even in the same water area, each trip will be different!
