We specialize in crafting exceptional yachting vacations in Greece, providing access to quality yachts, professional crews, and personalized service. Backed by 12 years of experience in yacht ownership and operation, we ensure a seamless experience at no extra cost to our clients. Our firsthand knowledge of yachts, crews, and destinations allows us to provide informed recommendations. Recently, we attended the charter yacht show in Poros, Greece, where we explored a variety of vessels, from classic sailing yachts to sleek power yachts. We also explored the Cyclades, the most popular island group including Mykonos and Santorini, renowned for their whitewashed villages, stunning beaches, and vibrant nightlife. Other sought-after island groups include the Ionian, the Argo-Saronic, and the Dodecanese.
The Argo-Saronic Islands, close to Athens, boast a rich history. The picturesque harbors and cobbled streets of Aegina, Poros, and car-free Hydra are lined with neoclassical mansions reminiscent of a bygone era. The Ionian Islands, off the west coast of mainland Greece, are the greenest and less crowded than the Cyclades, making them a favorite among yacht crews. Corfu and Ithaca offer crystal-clear waters, beautiful beaches, and inviting towns. The Dodecanese Islands, situated in the easternmost part of Greece along the Turkish coast, showcase a captivating blend of architectural styles with Eastern and Western influences. Explore traditional villages, pristine waters, beautiful beaches, historical sites, and exciting nightlife.
In addition to diverse destinations, Greece offers a variety of yacht types, including monohulls, motor sailers, and power yachts. Monohulls provide a classic sailing experience for traditionalists, offering the thrill of sailing and the charm of traditional features. Motor sailers, a traditional Greek yacht style, combine engine power with sail propulsion, ideal for those seeking luxurious island exploration with the character of a sailing yacht. Power yachts offer greater mobility, a popular choice in Greece due to the longer distances between islands compared to the Caribbean. This category includes mega yachts exceeding 100 feet, catering to discerning clients seeking world-class amenities, cuisine, and service while cruising the Greek islands on a private, luxury yacht.
