When you think of a yacht, visuals of billionaires and celebrities may pop up in your head, but yacht vacations are not just for the rich and famous. Cabo Yacht World offers you the opportunity to escape your routine life and live your dream yacht vacation while still remaining well within your budget.
No yacht charters cost the same and there are numerous factors that determine the cost of your yacht vacation. Before you rule out a yacht vacation because of budgetary constraints, here are some options to consider that can your trip affordable.
Type of charter
If you are on a budget, chances are you won’t be looking splash the cash on a 165-foot luxury yacht. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t more affordable options available. The cost of a yacht is naturally determined by its size and the number of people in your charter party.
Chartering an older and smaller yacht can be an effective cost-saving method as they cost significantly less than newer vessels.
Duration
The longer your yacht vacation lasts, the more it’s likely to cost. Even choosing to stay for 5 days instead of a week can notably lower your costs. Generally, most charters start on the weekend so you can also save costs by chartering a yacht during weekdays when the prices are lower.
Don’t hire a crew
The costs of chartering a yacht can be reduced drastically by not hiring a yacht crew. If you have experience in sailing, you could consider taking charge of the yacht yourself. If you don’t feel confident enough, ask a friend who has sailing experience to tag along and be your yacht captain!
Go in the off-season
Naturally, chartering a yacht can prove to be pretty expensive during peak-season. However, the rate dramatically decreases during off-season and charter companies may even offer special discounts to attract people that time of the year.
If you’re visiting a destination that’s not overly affected by seasonal changes, chartering a yacht vacation during the off-season is a great cost-saving option for you.
There are not many better ways to spend your travel days than by treating yourself to a luxury yacht vacation. Yacht vacations offer a completely different dynamic to other vacation options as you can soak in the beauty of marine life and relax in the company of family and friends.
