Why Charter?
Flexibility and independence are two of the main
reasons for spending your annual leave on a sailing
charter vacation. You choose your destination, and you
decide when you step onto terra firma. You avoid the
crowds when you want to be alone, or join them when
you feel like it. Viewing the landscape from your private
yacht will be your Kodak picture memory for life! You
can set your own pace, choose your desired destination
and take full control of your itinerary and eliminate
queuing at busy airports.
The key word to yacht chartering is FREEDOM. You are
the captain of your decisions. So, you decide when to
sail, when to eat and when to throw anchor at hidden
beaches or exotic ports. But should the notion for ‘living
it up’ take hold of you, you can join the exciting nightlife
in a bustling town or enjoy a meal in a popular haunt.
When hoisting your main sail and turning
the yacht into the wind, you set yourself to sail the
most exquisite coastlines. Glistening sapphire waters
and pristine white beaches will be the order of the
day. Dancing dolphins will be your entertainment hosts.
You can snorkel when you want to cool down or scuba
dive into the deep for a peep at vivid colored marine
life. Enjoy national parks at different destinations.
Rub shoulders with local people and stuff your shopping
bag with souvenir trophies. You will never be the same
once you have experienced a ‘Royalty Yachts’ vacation
and tasted the good life.
The most popular yacht charter destinations include the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, Florida Keys, the Bahamas and the Whitsunday Islands in Australia. Royalty Yachts cover all these and in addition, has access to all the best charter boats in exotic locations such as the South Pacific, the Seychelles and Thailand. Can you feel the freedom?
In one respect chartering is the same as all other vacations.
They both take a certain amount of planning and preparation
to make sure you have the best trip. You also have to
pack your bags for either one. But charter vacation
will be all the better for being customized specifically
for you.
On board a luxury Royalty Yacht, you will find that
there is no better way to experience a taste of freedom,
elegance and style. You will also discover that a crewed
luxury yacht charter may end up costing no more than
an exclusive hotel or cruise ship. However, a fundamental
difference is that you have ultimate privacy, control
and as mentioned before – freedom! Something you’d never
find on a cruise ship or in a hotel.
Your luxury yacht will be the royal domain for you and
your friends, and the crew will attend to all your needs.
You’ll get service that is professional, personalized
and friendly. Your own personal chef onboard will provide
you with the best in cuisine, prepared to your liking,
and you can dine whenever you want without even making
a reservation. Take charge of your vacation and join
the growing numbers who sail in absolute luxury when
and where they choose to.
You will also find another range of fun choices on board
a luxury yacht. The water ‘toys’! Kayaks, windsurfers,
water-skis, jet skis and diving equipment to name a
few. These are often available for your entertainment.
Incredible but true, the larger super yachts may even
accommodate a helicopter pad, submarine bay, a gym or
a cinema. Every charter boat has its own speed boat
(tender) which can take guests water skiing, and take
passengers ashore during the day, to the beach, or at
night to enjoy a meal or other nightlife.

Sailing Destinations of the World:
PACIFIC NORTHWEST
The Pacific Northwest covers some magnificent coastline and forms a perfectly
protected playground for your yacht charter vacation. The sheltered, waterways
offer endless miles of calm, protected cruising, which makes this charter area
great for beginners. Hundreds of inlets and coves offer stunning anchorages
amongst majestic evergreen beauty. The facilities throughout the area are
extensive.
From Vancouver Island to Alaska’s capital Juneau, the coastline ventures
alongside a pristine wilderness of secret coves, glacial valleys, majestic
mountains and sheltered fjords. Abound with phenomenal sea life, birds and
mammals, the Pacific Northwest is extremely popular with outdoor enthusiasts.
Cruising the Pacific Northwest offers boaters the opportunity to leisurely
cruise the protected waters of the Canada’s Inside Passage while enjoying the
spectacular vistas of soaring mountains, miles of wilderness, iceberg summits,
sandy beaches and fishing streams teeming with trout and salmon.
Start in Alaska’s state capital of Juneau. A variety of sightseeing and
shopping adventures are available.
Leave Juneau and steam for Saginaw Channel, located at the top of Admiralty
Island on the eastern shore of the Mansfield Peninsula, which offers excellent
whale watching. Continue around Point Retreat for Funter Bay, located at the
base of Icy Straits on the western side of Mansfield Peninsula. Steam across the
Icy Straits to Chatham Strait to Tenakee Inlet. Just inside the inlet you will
find Tenakee Springs, the town has a delightful coffee shop and gift shop and,
more unusually, a community bathhouse with alternating hours for ladies and
gentlemen.
Leave Tenakee Springs and steam through the Peril Straits for Sitka, a town
rich in Russian history and native culture. Visit the Sitka National Historic
Park for its totem pole collection and exhibits on the Tlingit heritage. Spend
the day near Sitka, where you will find great clamming nearby and possibly
halibut, ling cod or salmon fishing around the entrance of Salisbury Sound.
Leave Sitka and steam through Salisbury Sound, into the Peril Strait and out
into Chatham Strait for Baranof. Well worth a visit are the Baranof Springs,
where you can enjoy a soak in the natural hot pool adjacent to a roaring
waterfall. In the afternoon, leave Baranof and head down Chatham Straits to Red
Bluff. Red Bluff is a spellbinding anchorage with a huge waterfall cascading
nearby.
Leave Red Bluff and enter Frederick Sound for more fabulous whale watching.
Cruise to Tracy Arm Glacier, where you will take an incredible trip through a
granite-walled fjord to observe Sawyer Glacier. You will see eagles, seals and
perhaps even brown bears, mountain goats and moose.
Leave for St. Petersburg, an exceptionally prosperous Norwegian fishing
community rich in Nordic tradition. Cruise from St. Petersburg to La Conte
Glacier. Anchor in a cove slightly north of the entrance and go in to explore
this pristine fjord and retreating glacier by tender.
The peak cruising season for the Pacific Northwest is from June through to
September. The yacht charter shoulder seasons of May and early October are also
well worth considering, as they are less crowded and the weather is usually
still fairly settled.
