TRIPADVISOR VOTES

LONDON IS HOTSPOT

London plays host to multiple events. For instance, the Olympic Games, and the Queen’s Royal Jubilee this year.  These make London is this summer’s hotspot for yachting vacations.  

OLYMPICS YACHT CHARTERS

In preparation for London Olympics yacht charters, the Royal Docks have been gearing up to welcome the influx of yachts and charter guests from all over the world. The Royal Docks are offering a limited number of exclusive superyacht berths to provide a totally unique experience.

WHERE TO DOCK SUPERYACHT?

The facility is perfectly positioned just minutes from Central London, London City airport, and the city’s sporting venues. Onsite concierge service will be available 24/7.

EVENTS RECOMMENDING LONDON

Emma Shaw of TripAdvisor said, 
“The capital has been very much in the spotlight over the past few years, thanks to the royal wedding, Diamond Jubilee, and, of course, the Olympics, and we’re seeing travelers experience London in an increasingly favorable way.”

PRESIDENT OF 1-800 YACHT CHARTERS COMMENTS

Jana Sheeder, President of 1-800 Yacht Charters confirms the high level of customer service charter clients can expect while in London: 
“Our clients will enjoy convenient dockage near the center of London, as well as round-the-clock concierge and security service, a VIP lounge at the marina, and reserved parking.” 
Without question, London is the place to be this summer and will serve as the backdrop for a
once-in-a-lifetime yachting experience.

Most Likely to Bare It All on a Vacation

Posted on by

In March, our Caribbean yacht charter destination specialists shared two popular clothing optional destinations with our readers, along with 2 fabulous yachts to take you there.

Now, the folks at Trip Advisor ask travelers the question, “Are you ready to bare it all?”

In a recent survey, the online travel site asked members if they would bare it all at a nude beach.  The surprising results showed nearly half of the respondents said they are ready to strip, with European members proving to be the most revealing of all.

Jana Sheeder, the President of 1-800 Yacht Charters, is not surprised by the fact Europeans lead the way in clothing-optional vacation inquiries.

“For many years we’ve noticed the majority of inquiries for clothing-optional charters come from Europe, and they have a strong preference for crewed catamaran charters as opposed to motor yacht vacations.  They find the quiet nature of sailing to be relaxing, and the large canvas lounging areas on catamarans are perfect for sun worshippers.“

Here are the results of the Tripadvisor survey:

Would you bare all at a nude beach?

United States

Undecided 19%

Australia
