When you say sailing, most people think of summer sun, azure seas, tanned crews in striped T-shirts and cocktails on deck. And I admit, it sounds really good. But what if I let you in on a little secret? That the best sailing season may not be summer, but spring?

Yes, you heard right! Because spring has a lot of major advantages for sailing enthusiasts and believe me - once you've tasted the magic of spring sailing, you'll be thinking: "Why the hell didn't I start sooner?!"

Let's face it - a classic seaside holiday is great, but after a few days it often gets boring. You're sitting on the same beach, the same drink with an umbrella and the same people around you. Just a bit of a cookie-cutter holiday. How about trying something this year that will definitely turn your view of travel on its head? Yes, I'm talking about a yacht holiday.

Are you tired of circling around the same Croatian islands and ports over and over again? Sure, Kornati is fine, but what if next time you want to indulge in something a little more exotic without having to fly halfway around the world? I have a brilliant tip for you: sailing in Sardinia! Whether you prefer a catamaran or a classic yacht, Sardinia is such a Mediterranean paradise that you can't go wrong.

Holidays by the sea - sun, sand, waves. And then... ouch! Suddenly you find you've stepped on something sharp, pain searing through your foot and you're trying to find someone to help you. Yes, a marine animal injury is something you don't usually think about until it's too late. A sea urchin, a jellyfish or even a toadfish - these little (and sometimes quite inconspicuous) buggers can make your holiday a real pain. But what should you do if you "encounter" them closer than you'd like?

Imagine the feeling - standing at the helm, the sea wind ruffling your hair and the endless blue distance stretching out before you. Sound like a dream? With a C skipper's license, it can be your reality! And don't worry, it's not as complicated as it might seem. Let's talk about what's in store for you on your way to this "freedom card".

Imagine standing on the deck of a yacht, the wind ruffling your hair and the endless blue sea all around you. Golden beaches, picturesque harbours and dramatic cliffs loom on the horizon. The Balearics. The very word sounds like a promise of adventure, tranquillity and summer bliss. Sailing the Balearics? It's every sailor's Spanish dream - the perfect mix of history, nature and fantastic sailing conditions. So where do we go first? Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza or Formentera?
