For someone, a map is just a visual material in a geography lesson, and an ideal rest is a comfortable hotel, having a pool and a large buffet three times a day. If you do not relate yourself to such people and wish to get a little more from life, then bright discoveries and new impressions await you aboard the SimpleSail yacht - from the Croatian islands and the unique beauty of the Montenegrin coast.

Recreation on a yacht in Montenegro or Croatia for 8-12 tourists at its cost is commensurable with paying 4-6 rooms in the hotel, but the yacht offers much more opportunities. Every day on a rented boat this is a new interesting place and incredible emotions received from yachting on a sailing or motor boat: bathing in the open sea, diving in the depths of the Adriatic Sea untouched by civilization, sea fishing and underwater hunting for true gourmets of sea voyages.

Yacht charter in SimplSail is a great way to enjoy a small adventure surrounded by interesting people, to diversify monotonous everyday life with bright pictures, warm sun and azure waters of the cleanest sea of the Mediterranean basin. It is also important that guests on the yacht should not have special skills. They are instructed and become part of a friendly team.

If someone has a desire to take a master class from the captain, then by the end of the trip you can learn the basics of this delicate art. SimpleSail will train all those wishing to manage the ship in their Sailing School. And after the completion of training, after successfully passing a theoretical and practical exam, you will receive the skipper certificates of the international system IYT.
