United Kingdom Yacht Charters
refresh the yachter with an incredible number of yacht chartering options. The main charter areas are in southern England and the western coast of Scotland. A very strong emphasis on corporate and team-building activity charters is found in this region, as well as many historic charter tours. On the southern coast of England, the most popular yacht charter area is in Solent and the Isle of Wight. The Solent region is lined with ports at Southampton, Gosport, and Portsmouth. Chartering from Southampton can be for a day, weekend, or week and can include racing charters for the Isle of Wight. Cowes, on the Isle of Wight, is the birthplace of the America’s Cup race. On the western edge of the Isle of Wight, yachts can view the colored sands, the Needles (three 100-feet tall chalk rock formations) and a lighthouse. In East Sussex, try a different charter for wine tasting, clay shooting, or perhaps a murder mystery. There are several hotels and restaurants that can be reached solely by boat on the western coast of Scotland. A yacht excursion from Oban may result in sightings of dolphins, porpoises, whales, and puffins. Ardnamurchan’s wildlife charters have whale and shark watching. Many yacht clubs and ports are in Northern Ireland, but few charters exist. Visit the gardens of Wales with a luxury yacht charter, and charter the Great Orme Heritage Coast , ranging from sandy beaches to cliffs. Some year-round yacht charters are found, but April-October is the main season.
