Cabin and Berth Charter Sailing Holidays Without Your Own Crew

Do you dream of escaping everyday life, feeling the wind in your face, and discovering new horizons – but you don’t have your own crew or any sailing experience? Then a cabin or berth charter might be just the thing for you.

What is a cabin or berth charter?

With this type of charter, you don’t rent the entire boat – instead, you book a single cabin or berth on a sailing yacht. It’s similar to booking a hotel room on the water. You share the boat with other guests who, like you, want to enjoy the maritime lifestyle. A professional skipper is in charge on board and will take you safely from bay to bay.

• No experience needed: You don’t need any sailing skills – the skipper knows the boat and the area.
• Travel solo, experience together: Perfect for solo travellers – a sense of community develops quickly on board.
• Flexible & comfortable: Relax without responsibility – but feel free to lend a hand if you’d like.
• New people & perspectives: Sharing close quarters often leads to real connections – many friendships start at sea.
• Off the beaten path: Discover hidden coves, remote beaches and authentic harbours – far from the crowds of mass tourism.

• Trip style & target group: Check in advance whether it’s a sporty trip, a culinary journey or a family-friendly cruise. That way, the crew will match your expectations.
• Cabin options: Most yachts have double cabins – if you're travelling solo, you may share a cabin (often same-gender).
• Luggage: Bring soft bags instead of hard-shell suitcases – space on board is limited.
• Helping out on board: No experience is required, but helping with the sails, washing up or mooring is often expected.
• Community life: Openness, team spirit, and a little consideration go a long way at sea

A cabin or berth charter is the perfect way to experience life on board – whether you're a beginner or a solo traveller longing for the sea. You don’t need a crew, a license, or sailing experience. Just curiosity, a sense of adventure, and a love for the ocean.
