Sailing holidays offer a unique way of exploring a particular part of the world at your own pace, whether you intend to set off on your own, with your partner or in the company of family and friends.

One of the advantages of booking luxury sailing holidays through a specialist provider is the fact that all levels of experience are catered for – so if you've never sailed before, you can still enjoy an unforgettable getaway with a captained or fully-crewed yacht, or perhaps by learning to sail yourself.

The Moorings offers a fantastic range of sailing getaways that allow holidaymakers of all skill levels to explore some of the most interesting corners of the world.

Our innovative fleet and 40 years of experience makes us the perfect firm to book with when it comes to sailing holidays.

All about sailing holidays

Sailing holidays offer a number of advantages over traditional breaks. Perhaps the main selling point is the fact that chartering a vessel provides a unique way of seeing a particular place – many locations are simply stunning when viewed from the sea, but how often do you get to do this on a standard package holiday?

The Moorings provides getaways to some of the most beautiful hotspots in the world, including sailing holiday destinations in the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, the South Pacific, the Indian Ocean and the Far East, so you can imagine the kinds of vistas you'll be faced with when exploring these regions by sea.

You can see and do all manner of things on your sailing holiday – all you have to do is choose the landside activities you most want to take part in at your chosen destination, such as nature-spotting, diving, fishing, historic sightseeing and fine dining.

Of course, there's plenty of scope to engage in unplanned excursions and pursuits. The beauty of a sailing holiday is the fact that you have the freedom to do what you want, when you want!

When it comes to the kinds of vessels you can choose from, you will find that The Moorings has an extensive luxury fleet perfect for any holiday.

Our bareboat and crewed yacht charter options consist of cruising yachts and catamarans of all sizes with accommodation of varying capacity for you and any crew members, while our powerboat offerings include some particularly speedy and fuel-efficient yachts.

All of our yachts are fitted out to the highest standard, with some boasting luxury features such as en-suite bathrooms, large saloons and galleys and full air conditioning.
