4. Itinerary tailored according to your interest

This is the best part of the yachting holiday. You literally stop wherever you like and see the places that interest you.

Before you start your vacation you set the itinerary according to your preferences, the captain confirms it and after, just go with the flow. You prefer one bay from another, raise the anchor, and sail away. You want to stay in one spot longer, no problem. Each day you discuss the next day itinerary with your captain and just follow the inspiration.
