Get Away From It All On A Sailing Vacation
By Mac Herrison
Sailing vacations are terrific getaways for both the novice and the experienced sailor. Think about all the open water in the world, and you'll realize how many places there are to sail. One beautiful and popular destination, is the Pacific Ocean off the coasts of Washington state and British Columbia. You can learn to sail among the breathtaking San Juan and Gulf Islands. From May to October you can learn in these waters for about $950. A certified instructor will teach you the fine points of sailing.
The San Juan and Gulf Islands are truly magnificent and offer you many sheltered coves where you can anchor for the night. By the way, this area is called the Pacific Northwest banana belt, as the climate is mild and the scenery makes you think of the tropics.
During your instructional period you will have a number of activities to vary your routine. There are small villages dotting the shores. Stop by a local inn for a beer, check out some really remote islands, or even enjoy a massage at an island spa. You may also luck out and see Orca whales frolicking in your vicinity. These beautiful creatures call this area home. Be on the lookout too for otters, bald eagles, seals and porpoises, and the many species of sea birds.
A vacation in Washington and British Columbia will give you many pleasures, including excellent accommodations. Your ship will sleep four people in two double cabins. Your onboard chef will prepare
scrumptious meals, or you can go ashore and dine in one of the area's many fine restaurants. One of these vacation packages is just right for the novice sailor who will later be able to sail in far away ports of call with wilder waters.
For a vacation in more foreign waters a great location is the British Virgin Islands. This area is a great vacation for newly weds and for couples who want a romantic, yet adventurous trip, to make lasting memories. The weather of the British Virgin Islands is warm and sunny, and the clear Caribbean waters will soothe your skin as you take a swim off the side of your vessel. Have lunch on board the ship before napping in the sun off the side deck. You’ll have the vacation of a life-time when you board one of the many boats that can be found in the British Virgin Islands.
