Yacht Charter Holidays in the Mediterranean

At Sea Freedom meets Elegance, and every Horizon is yours

A yacht charter holiday is one of the most exclusive and liberating ways to experience Italy, Greece, or other Mediterranean gems. Whether you’re island-hopping in the Cyclades, exploring the Amalfi Coast, or anchoring in secret coves in Sardinia, a private yacht gives you the rare luxury of combining total privacy with ever-changing scenery.

What to Expect on a Yacht Charter Holiday

 Your Private Yacht, a floating Villa

  • Choose from sailing yachts, catamarans, motor yachts, or luxury gulets (traditional wooden yachts with modern comforts).
  • Options range from bareboat charters (you sail it yourself, if licensed), skippered charters (a captain takes the helm), or fully crewed yachts with chef, hostess, and crew — perfect for relaxed luxury.

A New View Every Day

  • Wake up in a quiet bay, swim before breakfast, and sail to a lively island for lunch.
  • Drop anchor wherever the mood takes you — remote beaches, vibrant ports, charming harbors.
  • Sunset cocktails on deck, stargazing at sea, and dinner under the moonlight.
