Destinations

The Sailing Destinations section of the Borrow A Boat Magazine covers every cruising ground we charter into, from the Adriatic and the Cyclades to the Tyrrhenian and the Caribbean. Each destination guide pairs route planning, anchorage notes, and seasonal context with practical advice for skippers and first-time charterers. Whether you are weighing a Croatia charter against a Greek-islands trip, or planning a Caribbean winter, start here. The articles below break down each region by season, harbour, marina, and the kind of sailing you will find on the water.
