Tourists Behaving Badly? | Casting Off Ep 029
Do sailing YouTubers need to think twice before filming the remote and secluded locations they visit and alerting the rest of the world to their existence? Is it ruining travel for the rest of us?
And what about local communities? Is it right to put a spotlight on undeveloped places around the world? Will it bring “the wrong kind of tourism”? Is it better to keep these places secret?
Why do influencers turn their backs on sunsets?
“I think it’s called influencer tourism. It’s happening all over the world where people are going to certain places just to be able to get that “cool” picture for their Instagram or show a video of how they got there.” – homelesspics
We answer these questions and look further into the wonderful world of influencers who lie about what they find travelling and turn their backs on sunsets…
With heartfelt thanks to our supporters, followers and subscribers for their contributions, many of which chimed with our own experiences.
What do you want us to waffle on about next? 😀🤔

We've been blogging, vlogging and podcasting about living on our boat since 2005. If you love travel, sailing, fishing, diving and photography this might be the channel for you... Each week we post a 15-20 minute snapshot of what we did. It might cover anything from sailing, travelling, meeting people, fishing, cooking, shopping in exotic markets or hanging out on a tropical beach, to boat maintenance (there's a lot of that when you live on a boat) and tackling challenges or bureaucratic conundrums. There's also a fair bit of photography and diving. Even though the world continues to throw spanners at us, we love being perpetual travellers. And we've never regretted making the big leap into this alternative lifestyle for even a nanosecond. If we make you laugh or inspire you, then these videos haven't been a total waste of time. Pop round to the pub and share a drink with us... https://followtheboat.com/pub/ Jamie and Liz xx
