Bimini for SCUBA Lovers

For SCUBA lovers, a Bahamas yacht charter wouldn’t be complete without a trip to Bimini. This island has it all, with adventures both on land and in the water. Many island destinations offer activities that teach about the culture and history of the people as well as the plant and animal life – including the native Bimini Boa snake, which is exclusive to the island.  Visit the Fountain of Youth or the Lost City of Atlantis before heading out to the Continental Shelf for the best dive of your life.

Off the western edge of the island of Bimini, you can look into the amazing wildlife channel that is the Gulf Stream.  An underwater cliff begins at 140 feet and drops to depths that are several thousand feet. It is here, in this deep blue water, that an experienced diver might see an extensive assortment of marine life, including marlin, mantas, sea turtles, and dolphins.

 

Where Do You Want To Go?

 

Worldwide Boat offers luxury crewed yacht charters to all of the best charter destinations worldwide. Where do you want to go?

 Somewhere Cold

Alaska: Dazzling blue skies, majestic mountaintops, and stately pine trees are all reflected in the deep blue waters. Wildlife abounds and you’re able to go on whale watching tours, wildlife charters, birding trips, or glacier watching tours, any of which would offer you a memorable experience with many photo opportunities.

Somewhere Hot

Miami and South Florida: Enjoy wild nightclubs with music that spills out into the streets or – even better – onto the beach itself as dancers clad in short shorts and tank tops twirl in the ocean breeze. Go site-seeing to the home of the stars or spend time in Key West.

Somewhere Hotter

Caribbean: Tropical islands. White sandy beaches. Snorkeling and scuba diving to historic shipwrecks and brightly-colored coral reefs.  Bikinis in the sun. Exotic drinks in hand. Enough said.

The 115-foot luxury yacht offers stylish living both indoors and out. The formal dining area seats eight and offers stunning views through large windows and extra light through a skylight.

Yacht Miracle | @WorldwideBoatWhile in Turks and Caicos, enjoy some of the best scuba diving and snorkeling in the entire Bahamas. The area is known for its steep walls and drop-offs, stunning coral reefs, and numerous historic ship wrecks. Marine life, beyond the myriad of colorful fish, extends to include humpback whales, dolphins, spotted eagle and manta rays, and sea turtles. As only eight of the forty islands and cays are inhabited, do not expect to be inundated with commercialism. Instead, expect to find your own island, leave your footprints undisturbed in the sand, and hear only the sounds of the wind in the trees and the waves on the beach.

 

The Pink Sands of Harbour Island

Harbour Island Bahamas Pink Sand | @WorldwideBoat

Harbour Island in the Bahamas offers a worthwhile yacht charter destination, if for nothing else than its sugar-fine pink sandy beaches. Centuries of coral, rocks, and shells have been ground down to tiny pieces – resembling more dust than rock – to form these luxurious beaches that beg to have bare toes sunk in.

But Harbour Island offers more than just sand and water – even though that would be enough on its own. Diving here is sublime. The Current Cut Dive, between rock walls of Eleuthera and Current Island, has a fast current and exciting views. The Island has a notable history, as Eleuthera Adventurers hid here when the Spaniards invaded their island. During Prohibition, rum was made here. Titus Hole, a cave by the bay, was a prison. The prisoners carved the stone Hill Steps as well as the tunnel that leads to the cove. Other activities include fishing, water sports, horseback riding, shopping, more.

Enjoy a yacht charter to Harbour Island. Come for the beach. Stay for it all!

Worldwide Boat is now offering Tahiti yacht charters!

Bora Bora in Tahiti | by @worldwideboat

Worldwide Boat is now offering Tahiti yacht charters!

Tahiti is a magical area in the South Pacific Ocean known predominately for its verdant volcanic mountains that seem to emerge from the center of white sandy beaches which reach out to meet the turquoise blue waters. French Polynesia is made up of five archipelagos, which includes Tahiti, the main island and nickname for the area.

The archipelago known as the Society Islands consists of Raiatea, Taha’a, Bora Bora, and Huahane and is one of the most popular destinations for yacht charters. You’ll enjoy exploring the islands by horseback, bicycle, or 4-wheel drive vehicle. You can swim with the manta rays, go snorkeling, or simply walk along the pristine beaches. The local culture of Tahiti is amazing, and you’ll be able to purchase local artwork and watch a performance by the local village dancers in Taha’a.

The plant and wildlife here is unmatched due to the high mountain peaks, low-lying areas, and even in the lagoons. The fresh fragrance of the flowers can be detected before you even reach land! Come experience the charm of Tahiti by booking a yacht charter with Worldwide Boat!

 


 

A Whale Watching Adventure in Alaska

Whale watching in Alaska by @WorldwideBoat

Whale watching on the Inside Passage of Alaska is some of the best in the world, drawing visitors from across the globe to see the magical scene as humpbacks and orcas play and swim. An Alaska yacht charter is the perfect family vacation, where you’ll cruise through the feeding grounds of the largest concentrations of humpbacks anywhere. As they breach the water, throwing their 40-ton bodies into the air, you’ll be hooked!

 

Another amazing sight to see is when these giant creatures bubblenet feed, which is when a group of whales work together to capture their dinner of herring. One whale will blow bubbles in a circle under the fish, which forms a net that keeps the herring in the center. The other whales simple swim up through the middle of the “net” with their mouths open to enjoy their meal.

 

A yacht charter to Alaska will allow you capture some awesome photographs and learn more about the local wildlife. In addition, you might see bald eagles, puffins, salmon, sea lions, and brown and black bears. It is truly an adventure waiting just for you!
