Boat Rentals In Bermuda Create A Whole New Market For Vacationers

By Alta Alexander


Visiting Bermuda without experiencing the sea is like a trip to the Grand Canyon and not looking at the scenery. And of course one of the best ways to experience the ocean is on a boat. Boat rentals in Bermuda can transform a holiday into an unforgettable experience. Here are a few great ideas for having an amazing time on a boat.

Many an angler will recall the way the body reacts and the adrenal rush to the thrill of a massive fish on the hook of their fishing tackle. People who only fish occasionally will testify as to how their time fishing the ocean became the top point of their holidays. With some excellent fishing close to shore, sailing times of only 45 minutes are common. From an enormous aquatic population, tuna, wahoo and marlin seem to attract anglers with their mystery and reportedly are the most challenging. Safety is as important as a good catch so the reputation of a charter service is important.

Traditional lovers of sail power may prefer a yachting experience. Possibly a calmer and more sedate method to explore the many islands and inlets. There are 181 islands in the archipelago to be accurate and probably as many rental agencies. Yacht rentals can be arranged over periods from a day to months and craft range from kayaks and dinghies to ocean crossing trimarans, with or without crews.

Customers of larger vessels will be required to prove their sailing and navigational skills as well as attend briefings pertaining to regional weather and potentially hazardous areas. Local captains and crews are available for hire and those with little sailing knowledge should take advantage of this. One great plus of sailing is the ability to moor in a secluded bay somewhere and change the day by doing some diving, fishing or just a good swim. Naturally just stopping for a delicious meal is also an attractive option.

Boating activities do not have to be in or on the sea. A fantastic way of viewing the amazing coastline, hidden bays, dazzling water and prolific reefs is parasailing. Suspended from a customized canopy, sometimes two at a time, and hauled behind a powerful boat at heights of up to six hundred feet. This has to be the ultimate boating flying experience and getting wet is optional. This is well worth reserving in advance as parasail providers are more scarce and tend to get booked up.

Underwater sports such as snorkeling and scuba diving are one of the main draw cards of the island. There is no shortage of shipwrecks and reefs for experienced divers with one of the most famous being South West Breaker. Teeming with marine life, more like an aquarium, divers report of barracudas in such large quantities that they block out the sunlight. Once again safety is paramount.

Lack of experience need not be an obstacle as there are many well run and certified companies offering introductory courses to newcomers. First timers do not have to fear doing all the instruction in a pool either as some companies hold part of their training on safe reef locations such as Sandy Hole.

Water skiing, wake board surfing, canoe trips are just a few more ideas not even discussed, emphasising again the massive variety of activities that boats make possible.
