Tips for preparing for your summer cruise
To help you get ready for your summer getaway, here are some tips to ensure you have the best experience on board one of our Pénichettes:
1. Choose your crew
One of the joys of a boating holiday is sharing it with your loved ones. Whether you want an intimate trip with just two people or a lively adventure with up to twelve, Locaboat’s Pénichettes can accommodate your crew. And don’t forget, your four-legged friend is welcome aboard too, making it a truly inclusive family holiday.
2. Choose the right boat
Locaboat offers a variety of boats to suit every taste. From the charming, vintage-style “Pénichette Classique” to luxurious river yachts, there’s something for everyone. Our top tip? Opt for a boat with a terrace to enjoy aperitifs in the sunshine, enhancing your cruising experience with delightful outdoor moments.
3. Choose the perfect region
With 200 itineraries to choose from, the hardest part of your planning might be deciding where to go! Do you fancy the sun and beaches of the South of France, the gentle warmth and picturesque landscapes of Brittany, or perhaps a river cruise with plenty of opportunities for refreshing swims? Each region offers unique experiences and breathtaking scenery, ensuring a memorable trip wherever you choose to sail.
