What is the difference between a sailing yacht and a catamaran?
A monohull sailing yacht generally has a single hull, while
a catamaran has two hulls connected by a central structure.
Catamarans often provide wider deck areas and spacious living
spaces, while monohull sailing yachts offer a traditional
sailing experience.
Can I charter a sailing yacht with a professional skipper?
Yes. Depending on the yacht and charter arrangement, you can
choose a yacht with a professional skipper or a fully crewed
sailing experience. Requirements and arrangements vary
according to the yacht and destination.
Which destinations are best for a sailing holiday?
Popular sailing destinations include the French Riviera,
Corsica, Sardinia, Greece, Croatia, the British Virgin Islands
and the Grenadines. The ideal destination depends on your
preferred season, itinerary and style of holiday.
What is the best season for a sailing yacht charter?
The Mediterranean sailing season generally runs from spring
through autumn, with the busiest summer months in June, July
and August. The Caribbean is particularly popular during
the winter season. The best dates depend on your destination,
preferred conditions and yacht availability.
How much does a luxury sailing yacht charter cost?
Charter prices depend on the yacht model, size, destination,
season, duration and crew arrangements. Additional expenses
may apply depending on the charter contract. Contact Riviera Boat
with your dates and requirements to request a tailored quotation.
Can I charter a catamaran for a family holiday?
Yes. Catamarans are a popular choice for families and groups
because many models offer spacious outdoor areas, comfortable
accommodation and convenient access to the sea. The right
yacht depends on the number of guests and required cabins.
