Yacht charter in Greece
Thousands of islands, one perfect itinerary.
Why Greece
History, light and endless islands
With more than 6,000 islands and islets, Greece is made for yachting. Every day brings a new harbour, a new beach and a new taverna by the sea.
The Cyclades offer iconic whitewashed villages and lively nightlife; the Ionian Islands are greener and calmer; the Saronic Gulf is ideal for shorter charters from Athens.

Greece yacht charter FAQ
Which Greek islands are best for a yacht charter?
For first-timers the Cyclades (Mykonos, Paros, Milos, Santorini) are iconic. For calmer seas and green landscapes choose the Ionian Islands; for a short charter from Athens, the Saronic Gulf.
What is the Meltemi?
The Meltemi is a strong, dry northerly wind that blows in the Aegean mainly in July and August. Experienced captains plan the route around it, and the Ionian Sea is largely unaffected.
Where do Greek yacht charters start?
Most charters start in the Athens area (Piraeus, Lavrio or Alimos), in Mykonos, or in Corfu for the Ionian Islands.
