10 sailing destinations to add to your bucket list
When we’re sat at our desks or bent over computers, it’s a daydream that many of us encounter throughout our work weeks….
A long stretch of sandy beach, a boat calmly swaying in the breeze, a gorgeous landscape, a peaceful serenity, and the sounds of only the waves and the perhaps the pop of a cap being pulled off a bottle of beer…
Well, here we are, about to add 10 real life places to add to your bucket list, (and if anyone is lucky enough to visit them all, let us know!)
1. Madagascar
A tropical paradise, located on the island of Nosy Bé, nicknamed “Fragrant Island”! Known for its beautiful reefs, turtles, whale sharks, barracuda, gorgonian fans, crocodile fish, octopus, leopard sharks, dragon fish and manta rays, Madagascar is your perfect place for a private charter.
2. Langkawi , Malaysia
To charter your yacht or boat in Langkawi, our base is situated on the largest of the 99 islands that make up Langkawi archipelago. The area is known for its stunning coastline around Malaysia. An up-and-coming tourist zone, so get there quick!
This port is a perfect starting point for sailors who wish to rent a boat around southern Thailand and Malaysia, and also a popular destination for ferries departing to the nearby islands of Krabi and Koh Phi Phi!
4. Villefranche-Sur-Mer, France
Our most popular destination, a sea-side town located right on the French Riviera, offering splendid views, warm weather, and lucky for us, it is also the home of our office! Villefranche-sur-mer is our unspoilt treasure, with colourful buildings, narrow cobbled backstreets, and old bricked alleys. Renting a boat at Villefranche-sur-mer is made even easier by its close proximity to Nice, Monaco, St Tropez, Eze-Sur-Mer, and many other destinations along the Cote d’Azur.
5. Seychelles
Here in the Seychelles we have both sailing yachts and catamarans available for bareboat charter. Choose from the two major islands in the Seychelles Mahé or Praslin to depart on your perfect sailing holiday.
6. Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands
A picturesque setting, unrivalled. An absolutely gorgeous area for you to rent your boat, and the perfect place to relax and enjoy the serenity of the sea.
7. Maldives
Boat rentals are available in either Malé or Manadhoo, two beautiful ports, leading out to scuba diving, snorkeling, and many other adventures in the Indian Ocean
A boat rental in the principality of Monaco is a truly luxurious way to spend your days. Known as the capital of luxury, prestige, and elegance, this sea-front region is a must-see for boat lovers.
9. Waitui Marina, Fiji
Fiji, the land of paradise. This port is hidden between the islands of Savusavu and Nawi. The sparkling, clear waters are a calm, quiet place to rent a boat, before stopping off at the golden, sandy beaches.
10. Dubai, U.A.E
Dubai Marina, only built in 2003, is the largest harbor in the world. With all the facilities you could dream for, this is a great place to charter a yacht and explore all the areas of the Persian Gulf.

New Boats in Villefranche-sur-mer!
Summer’s rolling in, the sun is shining, and we at Easy Boat Booking have become the proud new parents (or is it owners?) of three fantastic new boats. Leaflets and web pages can only say so much, so we thought we’d give you the run down here on our blog…
First up, we have the Zar 57 Welldeck.
This is a new model of ZAR, giving you a touch of comfort and space for up to 12 passengers. With a length of 5.77 meters and a width of 2.54 meters, there is plenty of room for everyone to sit back, relax, and enjoy the sea. While this boat will be based in Villefranche-Sur-Mer, we’d also be happy to depart from Beaulieu-Sur-Mer, Cap d'ail, Eze sur mer, Monaco, Nice, or Saint jean cap ferrat. With a low price of €399 per day, this is the boat that can give you luxury, fun, and an all-round-brilliant-day, on a lower budget. We all know that when we’re on holiday, we try to pack as many activities as possible into each day. So if you don’t want to take up one whole day on the sea, take advantage of our special offer on this motorboat rental for €250 for 4 hours. If you fancy something a little more on the wild side, this semi-rigid boat rental is also perfect for water sports.
Next up – The Ranieri Voyager 21S.
Our brand-new, 2013 Ranieri is our new stylish cruiser. The interior is comfortable, sleek, and luxurious; the size is spacious enough for 7 guests; and my personal favorite part of the boat: the spacious sunbathing area at the front. Skimming the waters a-top this baby is not only relaxing but a peaceful, enjoyable way to spend a day in the sun. This rental boat is available not only from Villefranche-Sur-Mer, but also Beaulieu-Sur-Mer, Cap d'ail, Eze-Sur-Mer, Monaco, Nice, and Saint jean cap ferrat. Why not rent the Ranieri motorboat from Nice Port and sail to St Jean Cap Ferrat for your first dip in the Mediterranean sea? This boat rents for €550 per day, or if you fancy a half day; €350.
And finally, we have the Joker boat Mainstream 800.
Here we have the most exciting new boat of the season! This rental boat seems to be the perfect boat for cruising the French Riviera and having and explore around the Mediterranean water with your friends or family. With enough room for 14 friends and family, no one will get left at home, and it’s the ideal activity for a fun group gathering. Not only is there room for two lucky people to chill out and catch the sun at the back of the boat, there’s also an area for one other person to sunbathe at the front. As this rental semi-rigid boat is equipped with a kitchen, never worry about anyone going hungry. You can rent the Mainstream 800 not only from Villefranche-Sur-Mer, but Beaulieu-Sur-Mer, Cap d'ail, Eze-Sur-Mer, Monaco, Nice, and Saint jean cap ferrat as well. Watersports are a must on this rental boat, what’s your choice? Wakeboard? Rubber rings? Take your pick… This boat rents for €750 per day, or €450 per half day.
