As you head off on that long-awaited (and often much-needed) holiday, you’re probably dreaming of the unstructured hours, when you can fully and truly RELAX. Likewise, you may be imagining serene tropical settings, beautiful weather, and some peace and quiet. At Queensland Yacht Charters, we believe this is what holidays should be made of. Unfortunately, there are times when unforeseen troubles or poor planning can lead to a holiday which proves to be the very opposite of relaxing. A stressful, frustrating, and chaotic holiday is no fun for anyone. Yet, nearly all of this can be prevented. With proper holiday planning, an incomparable destination, and the following tips, you can have the relaxing holiday you deserve.

Make arrangements before you leave.

Well before setting off on your holiday, make sure you’ve made all necessary arrangements. Perhaps your mail will need to be picked up by a neighbour. Maybe you require a house sitter to care for your beloved pets. Whatever your specific needs are, having these arrangements sorted and set well in advance of your departure date can help make the trip go more smoothly, and leave you worry-free.

Come prepared to be flexible and spontaneous.

No matter how much preparation you put into your holiday, oftentimes things do not go as planned. Instead of fussing over minor setbacks or changes, be flexible and go with the flow. Sometimes, holiday mistakes or issues can turn into some of the best memories, or at the very least, you’ve got an amazing story to tell. On your Whitsunday yacht charter, you just might find that spontaneous attitude will help you to discover the very best spots in the islands.

Consider an inclusive or packaged holiday.

Sometimes, it’s best to leave the planning to the professionals. Many families and couples prefer all-inclusive holidays. Instead of the typical resort trip, however, a yacht charter can provide all the amenities of a packaged holiday, while giving you the freedom to take charge of your own adventure. With comfortable, well-appointed accommodations and 74 gorgeous islands at your beckon call, a Whitsunday yacht charter is the perfect option for a straightforward, luxurious holiday. And, to make things even easier for you, Queensland Yacht Charters offers provisions packages, so you can have healthy, delicious food delivered right to your vessel throughout your holiday.

Leave your work at home or onshore.

In this day and age of constant connectivity, you may be tempted to bring along your mobile phone, laptop, and more. One of the best and simplest ways to maximise your holiday relaxation is to leave those gadgets onshore. If you bring work or distractions on the yacht with you, you’re bound to feel torn and compelled to complete some tasks. Eliminate this option by leaving all your assignments, electronics, and worries on dry land. Don’t worry, they’ll be there when you get back.

Allow plenty of time for doing absolutely nothing.

The beauty of a Whitsunday yacht charter is that you have all the time in the world for exploring the islands at your own leisurely pace. Surrounded by natural beauty and a myriad of fun activities, you’ll want to spend time swimming, snorkeling, fishing, bushwalking, sunbathing, and more. But don’t forget to allow yourself plenty of unscheduled time to simply do nothing. Complete relaxation is within your grasp when you sit back, take it all in, and just…be. A yacht charter just may be the ideal holiday for you and your family this year.
