Luxury Yacht Charter Mediterranean

French Riviera

The French Riviera is one of the most popular luxury yachting destinations in the world, and one that is high on the list for any luxury yacht charter in the Mediterranean. The glamour and flurry of high-season events in Cannes and St Tropez are matched by the rich heritage and culture of places such as St Jean Cap Ferrat, the Cap d’Antibes, Eze and the Lerins Islands. Head inland to experience local craftsmen making wine, perfume and artworks in the Var, Grasse and St Paul de Vence.

Monaco

Renting a yacht in Monaco is popular during events such as the Monaco Grand Prix, but the Principality offers season-long activities. Have a flutter at the famous Casino or walk the old, cobbled streets of Le Rocher to the Palace or Oceanographic Museum. Pampering is first-class in Monaco, with a selection of luxury spas and cutting edge treatments on tap, while there are ample choices for haute cuisine in the numerous excellent restaurants.

Italy

Italy offers one of the widest range of choices for your luxury yacht charter in the Mediterranean – from the rugged tranquillity of Alba to the hedonistic hub of Porto Cervo in Sardinia; the quaint fishing ports of Portofino in Liguria and the Amalfi Coast further south to the grand canals and palazzos of Venice on the north-east coast.

Spain

There are a growing number of charter options for yachts visiting Spain, thanks to new marinas opening and more flexible cruising rules. Ibiza is a popular destination for the yachting crowd, whether it is to party the night away or to enjoy some of the more secluded spots that the “White Isle”and has to offer. The neighbouring Balearic Islands of Formentera and Mallorca offer an abundance of water-based activities, as well as interesting trips ashore for those visiting on a Mediterranean yacht charter. Barcelona has a purpose-built superyacht marina that is attracting a growing number of charter yachts as a point of embarkation, with its international travel links and cosmopolitan vibe mixing art, culture, and gastronomy.

Greece

The vast array of islands that can be visited on a luxury yacht charter in Greece means you are spoiled for choice. The islands in the Aegean can roughly be divided into five major groups, including the Ionian Islands, Cyclades, Saronic Gulf  Islands, Sporades, and Dodecanese. From vibrant party towns to ancient historical sites, and wildlife-rich dive sites to luxury spas, Greece has something for all tastes.

Croatia

Croatia is one of the fastest growing yacht charter destinations in Europe. Often included as part of wider Mediterranean yacht charter itineraries incorporating Montenegro and occasionally Venice, it offers a beautiful and unspoiled coastline that is less crowded than the traditional cruising grounds of the West Mediterranean. Walk along white sandy beaches, explore Medieval walled cities or dive into the blue-green waters of a  secluded bay in this warm and friendly part of the Adriatic.

Montenegro

As one of Europe’s youngest countries, Montenegro has already made its mark on the map of the international jet set. A unique combination of outstanding natural beauty and luxury resorts with five-star amenities combine to make Montenegro an increasingly appealing destination for a luxury yacht charter in the Mediterranean. Explore towering fjords, UNESCO World Heritage  Sites and the world’s second largest canyon before relaxing in a luxury spa, indulging in a little high-end retail therapy or dancing the night away in a hip nightclub. It’s no wonder Montenegro is fast becoming a favourite yacht charter destination for those in the know.

Turkey

As a cultural crossroads with cities that trace back their history for millennia, Turkey is a fascinating choice for any luxury yacht charter in the Mediterranean. Beyond its abundance of historical sites and ancient ruins, Turkey offers superb cuisine, a warm and friendly culture, and excellent on-water activities. Why not take a meandering and relaxing tour from the historical Fethiye Bay to fortress town of Bodrum before heading on to the neighbouring Dodecanese Islands of Greece?
