SAILING AND<br />
CHARTER HOLIDAYS<br />
By Jonathan Beach<br />
Having been employed on many fl otilla<br />
holidays I think it is worth discussing the<br />
balmy hot summer evenings where you<br />
can relax and indulge in local cuisines and<br />
beverages.<br />
The personnel from the holiday company<br />
that you booked with will make sure that<br />
you’re well catered <strong>for</strong> come the evenings.<br />
Whether you are sailing in Spain, Greece,<br />
Italy, France or Turkey it is <strong>for</strong> certain that<br />
122<br />
you will be able to enjoy fantastic food and<br />
beautiful wines at the many suggested local<br />
restaurants.<br />
I say suggested, as it is well worth asking<br />
the holiday company on their<br />
recommendations, they are there <strong>for</strong> the<br />
whole season and would have done the<br />
groundwork <strong>for</strong> you.<br />
The atmosphere can be fantastic, you’ve had<br />
an awesome days sailing and met lovely like<br />
minded people whilst enjoying the weather that<br />
you only dream of at home and now you get to<br />
eat and drink.<br />
Local taverns and tapas bars in Greece and<br />
Spain are fi rm favourites with me and I always<br />
look <strong>for</strong>ward to the social aspect of a chartered<br />
fl otilla holiday abroad sometimes as much as the<br />
sailing. For those that are <strong>for</strong>tunate to holiday<br />
further afi eld in the Caribbean the same can be<br />
expected and quite often to a higher level.
