Here are the top misconceptions or concerns Dream Yacht hears often when travelers consider booking sailing charters:
Myth: Sailing is difficult and for experienced sailors only.
This is a common misconception but is far from being accurate. If you can get on board a boat, you can go sailing. Sea-based vacations are for everyone, no experience is necessary when you book a skippered charter, which allows travelers to enjoy the quality time together and not have to worry about sailing skills.
Those traveling with experienced sailors in their group can take advantage of Dream Yacht’s bareboat options. Or, if a whole yacht is more than you need, there’s also the possibility to join a cabin charter in a single or double cabin, with other like-minded travelers and a skipper and private chef on board.
Myth: Tight quarters.
Camping enthusiasts and outdoor explorers are often used to limited space, but families are typically nevertheless relieved to know that Dream Yacht Worldwide offers spacious catamarans that fit up to 12 people comfortably. Many catamarans have cabins that have their own private bathrooms as well.
Myth: It is all about the sea.
The sea is the medium, you can actually visit many places and discover areas on land that you cannot access without travel by water. Chartering a boat is an excellent way to discover lesser known areas. Dream Yacht operates in 40 destinations worldwide, with a fleet of more than 800 monohulls and catamarans. There is something for every type of traveler in destinations across the globe.
Myth: Charter vacations are boring.
Charter trips can be as exciting and as full of adventure as travelers prefer. It is a unique experience and it requires a certain adventurer mindset. There are many water sports activities that guests can participate in, plus plenty of opportunities to relax and unwind on board, and hiking and cultural experiences to be enjoyed on shore. Chartering allows travelers to see the world from a different perspective.
