Do Spring Break 2013 in Style on a Luxury Yacht Charter in Cancun, Mexico!

Spring Break is one of the most popular holidays of the year, often providing families with their first break of the year since Christmas. Whether you live in Europe or North America, you will have more than likely experienced miserable, damp and snowy weather up until now. Spring Break provides a priceless opportunity to get some sunshine and feel rejuvenated for the next few months. Cancún and the Mayan Riviera are one of the most popular destinations for Spring Break, due to the fact that visitors are guaranteed sunshine, white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters. An even better way to spend your vacation and avoid all the other tourists who head to Mexico is to have your own private luxury yacht charter.

Cancún is an up and coming yachting destination, due to the wide variety of aquatic activities available in the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, which stretches for over 1000km towards Guatemala. This is the largest coral reef in the Western Hemisphere and the second longest barrier reef in the world. The shallow coral reefs and crystal clear waters make it one of the best locations for snorkeling and scuba diving in the world.

Divers and Snorkelers have the chance to see more than 500 different types of fish, as well as the opportunity to visit the Cancún Underwater Museum. This is a series of more than 400 sculptures by British artist Jason de Caires Taylor, which have been placed underwater in the Cancún National Marine Park at depths from 9-20 feet. If you don’t feel like diving or snorkeling, however, you could always relax on one of the many fantastic beaches such as Playa Caracol or Playa Langosta.

Cancún is also one of the most popular sportfishing destinations in the world. Depending on the season that you visit, you may have the opportunity to catch kingfish, barracuda, blue marlin, sailfish, tuna and mahi-mahi. On top of fishing, whale watching, snorkeling and scuba diving, tourists can go swimming with dolphins, take guided jungle tours or visit one of the many historical sites such as the Mayan Ruins. In the evening, Cancún is well known for its parties and nightlife. Whether you like hip-hop or heavy rock, live reggae music, salsa dancing, or simply relaxing a sophisticated bar, the city offers it all.

There is no better yacht to charter in the whole of the Mayan Riviera than the luxurious Sunseeker Predator 73 motor yacht, AGUILA. Accommodating up to 10 guests in 5 cabins,

AGUILA is perfect for both friends and families who want to explore this beautiful coastline in style. She features an extensive range of water toys, including tenders, wave runners and kayaks, which should keep the whole family entertained for hours. We cannot recommend this yacht highly enough and we ensure you that she would make for an unforgettable charter experience.

Chartering in St Vincent and the Grenadines!

Even just the name of this glorious chain of islands evokes powerful visions of white sandy beaches, clear blue waters and an idyllic island life – and nor does this fall short in reality.

They stretch south from Saint Vincent Island to Grenada and provide a magnificent archipelago to explore in your luxury yacht!

Why not choose to charter WHISPER, a 116 Holland Jachtbouw built in 2003 and the distinguished winner of the 2004

ShowBoats Award for Best Sailing Yacht Under 40 Meters. She oozes class and elegance and she even carries scuba gear for four on board and a skipper with master scuba certification for that unforgettable diving experience.

St. Vincent has some of the best diving in the Caribbean, with over 30 official diving sites and the stunning Tobago Cays National Marine Park also located along this island chain, guests could not want for more. The Tobago Cays National Marine Park consists of 5.7 km²of lagoon and roughly 4km of stunning reef.

Head to Monaco, One of the Most Luxurious Destinations on the French Riviera for Your Charter Vacation!

Monte Carlo and Monaco are, quite rightly so, mainly famous for the hairpin bends of the Grand Prix and the glamour and stylish architecture of the Casino. Nestled into the hillside near the Italian border, this tiny principality is an ideal place to spend a day or two when exploring the delights of the Riviera.

Sitting at the top of the hill and overlooking the port, the Palais Princier, the luxurious home of the Grimaldi family, is a stunning example of 18th century and Renaissance work. Surrounded by narrow alleyways and cobbled streets, this hilltop monument is a perfect place to while away an afternoon before returning back down the path to one of the many superb bars and restaurants scattered around Monaco for the evening.
For those of you that fancy a flutter, the Casino provides ample tables and games to indulge. The strict dress code is in keeping with the opulent glamour of the gaming rooms, which feature stunning stained glass windows, paintings and sculptures, an experience in itself. Surrounding the Place du Casino you can find many places to indulge and spend your well-won prizes, with a range of top jewellers, couturiers and fine antique dealers all plying their trade within walking distance.

The charm of this picturesque state means that, during the summer months, Monaco can get busy and crowded however CARTE BLANCHE III, a Princess 72, is the ideal retreat. Accommodating 8 guests across 4 cabins (or 12 cruising) from 33,000 € per week, she is a joy to charter, with large panoramic windows allowing
an influx of natural light. Recently built in 2012 with a modern interior, she has a sliding sunroof on the flybridge, making her a perfect choice for those who want to experience the delights of dining under the stars in good company.
