Written by GJW Direct | 04-May-2023 12:22:05

If you're planning a yacht trip, you'll want to make the most of your time on the water. There are plenty of great options to choose from - whether you're traveling with family, friends, or business associates. 

We have a few ideas here - from family fun to the more luxurious - to ensure your trip is one to remember.

Board Games and Other Activities

When it comes to yacht entertainment, board games are a classic choice that never goes out of fashion. Monopoly, Scrabble, Buckaroo - they can be fun for all ages. 

Watersports, such as kayaking, paddle boarding, and snorkeling, are great options for those who want to get active and explore the surrounding waters. 

Alternatively, why not bring your fishing gear? You might be able to catch your own dinner.

Cinema Equipment for Movie Nights

Watching a movie on a yacht can be an unforgettable experience, especially with the right equipment. Whether you want to watch the latest blockbuster or a classic film, having a cinema setup on board can make your trip even more enjoyable.

Regarding cinema equipment, there are a few things to consider:

  • First, you'll need a good-quality projector. Look for a model that is compact and easy to set up, with a high resolution and brightness level. 
  • You'll also need a screen or a blank wall to project the movie onto. A white sheet can work in a pinch if you don't have a dedicated screen.
  • A good set of speakers can make all the difference in creating an immersive movie experience. Look for waterproof speakers designed for outdoor use, as they will be exposed to the elements on the yacht.
  • Finally, remember the snacks. Set up a popcorn machine or bring some movie theater-style snacks to get into the spirit of things. 

Setting up a cinema on your yacht can be a great way to relax and unwind after a day of sailing. With the right equipment and some planning, you can create a movie experience that rivals even the best cinemas on land - minus the queues for the popcorn.

Bringing a Chef On-Board

Bringing a chef on board is an excellent idea if you really want to push the boat out (sorry, we couldn't resist...)

With a professional chef, you can enjoy gourmet meals without leaving the comfort of your yacht. Having a chef on board also means you can customise your dinners to your preferences. Whether you have dietary restrictions or want to indulge in your favorite dishes, a chef can create a menu tailored to your tastes.

When hiring a chef, remember to communicate your expectations and preferences in advance. This ensures the chef is prepared to meet your needs and can create a menu that exceeds your expectations. 

Bringing a chef on board takes your yacht trip to the next level of luxury and relaxation. With delicious meals prepared just for you, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your time on the water.

The key to a successful yacht trip is to plan ahead and ensure you have all the necessary equipment and entertainment options. By doing so, you can relax and enjoy your time on board, safe in the knowledge that everyone is entertained and happy.
