If you’re craving adventure, freedom, and a break from the ordinary, then a UK Bareboat Charter could be your perfect UK staycation.
Swap traffic jams and crowded beaches for peaceful anchorages, salt air, and the open sea. A UK sailing holiday offers a unique way to explore the beauty of Britain — from the water.
No flights, no fuss — just freedom
With no need to fly abroad, you can skip the airport queues and keep your carbon footprint low, all while enjoying that all-important escape. Fairview Sailing’s base in Port Hamble Marina gives you direct access to some of the UK’s most iconic cruising grounds — starting right in the heart of the Solent.
Explore the south coast’s hidden gems
From historic ports to idyllic bays, the south coast of England offers something for every sailor. Head to Cowes on the Isle of Wight for world-class sailing heritage, boutique shops, and lively pubs. Anchor off Osborne Bay for a swim with a royal backdrop, or head to Yarmouth for a classic harbour town feel with great fish and chips.

Back on the mainland, explore Lymington’s Georgian charm, Beaulieu River’s tranquil beauty, or the bustling marina scene in Portsmouth. Further east, you can visit Chichester Harbour, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty perfect for nature lovers.
More time to spare? Sail west for even more adventure
If you’ve got more time, a longer UK sailing holiday opens up even more stunning coastlines. Sail west past the Jurassic Coast to reach Dartmouth, Salcombe, or Fowey — charming harbour towns nestled into Devon and Cornwall’s wild coastline. For the truly adventurous, head towards Falmouth, Penzance, or even Lundy Island, where wildlife and remoteness meet like nowhere else.
Total control, total relaxation
With a UK Bareboat Charter, you’re in control of your adventure. Fancy a quiet bay and a beach barbecue? Or a night in a buzzing harbour with live music and good food? It’s your call. Plus, sailing is a surprisingly social way to travel — and there’s nothing quite like watching the sunset from your deck with good company and a cold drink in hand.
