Counting Down: Our Top Five Exciting Sailing Destinations Destinations
Introducing Seamaster's definitive list of the top five destinations in the Mediterranean for exciting sailing! Starting at number five, we count them down...

Balearic Islands,
Spain
- Nightlife
- Luxury yachts
- Exciting winds
With stunning golden sandy beaches, lovely crystal clear waters, lively nightlife and fantastic Spanish cuisine, these islands have been popular with land-based travellers for many years. A yacht charter in the Balearics allows sailors to dip in and out of bays and harbours at their leisure, not just seeing more of one island, but providing the opportunity to visit multiple islands on one holiday. Even on a one week holiday you could visit Majorca, Menorca and Cabrera comfortably. Alternatively, take it easy and meander from bay to bay, anchoring off one of the many golden beaches by day and at night mooring in a quiet village or lively hotspot
