How can I reduce seasickness on a yacht?

Answer

Seasickness can be influenced by the yacht, sea conditions, itinerary and individual sensitivity. Choosing a yacht with appropriate stabilisation, planning routes that spend more time in sheltered waters and avoiding unnecessary long passages can all help.

Guests who know they are prone to motion sickness should discuss this with their healthcare professional before travelling and consider appropriate preventative measures.

Analysis

There is no single solution that works for everyone. Yacht selection can make a significant practical difference, particularly when combined with an itinerary suited to the group’s comfort requirements.
