Hello everyone! I would like to hear advice from experienced travelers. I am planning my first holiday in Seychelles and I am thinking of chartering a yacht to explore the islands on my own. I have never done this before, so I am not at all sure how to choose the right boat, what to consider when booking and which islands are definitely worth visiting. Are there any pitfalls that I should be aware of? I want to get maximum pleasure and comfort, but without unnecessary headaches. Maybe someone has recently used yacht charter services in Seychelles and can share their experience?
I heard that renting a yacht with a crew is convenient for beginners, and a bareboat charter is suitable for those who can manage a boat on their own. It is also important to consider the season - at different times of the year, water and wind can vary greatly, which affects the impressions of sailing. I think it will be useful to study several platforms and reviews to make the best choice.
