The Best Time to Go for Winter Sun

Wild, varied and unbeatable value, chartering a yacht in November gets you the best of all worlds. It's the ideal time for winter sun – any later and there's an Armada of boats heading for the Caribbean. We recommend setting a course for Asia. Malaysia, Mauritius and Thailand are all fabulous in November. Alternatively, seek out Costa Rica – it's shoulder season, which means fewer boats and better anchorages.

Monsoon season is over, making Langkawi, the Jewel of Kedah (to give it its full title) ripe for a visit. The 99 tropical islands that make up this Malaysian archipelago are like their own country. Charter a yacht in November to explore countless silver-sand beaches (visit Pantai Cenang for fun, Pantai Kok for quiet), an abundance of waterfalls (hike to Telaga Tujuh) and enjoy endless wildlife spotting (hello long-tailed macaques).

Beat the Tourists to the Coast in Thailand

Thailand has an embarrassment of riches along its coastline. Some 1,500 tropical islands. Rays, sharks, reef fish and seahorses. Warm, teal seas. Karst climbing at Krabi. Incredible diving at Koh Lanta. Soft coral reefs to snorkel on the Similan Islands. Charter a yacht in November as the dry season begins to beat the crowds. If you're in luck, even Ko Phi Phi – where they filmed The Beach – might be empty.

Charter a yacht to Santa Rosa National Park to tame the country's best barrels at Witches Rock.

Watch the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix from your Yacht

If there is a more exclusive way to watch the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix – other than being an F1 driver – we're yet to find it.

As well as the roar of the engines, this VIP marina has numerous classy restaurants and a number of bars, putting it in pole position for November.
