Explore Yacht Types for Your Luxury Yacht Charter
The first step in booking a luxury yacht charter vacation is determining which type of yacht best suits your group’s needs. The yacht type you choose will influence every aspect of your experience. Review the information below to help identify the yacht types that best match your planned itinerary.
Motor Yacht Charters
Motor yacht charters are ideal for guests who value comfort, speed, and generous living space. With multiple deck levels and fast cruising between ports, motor yachts are well-suited to itineraries with many stops or tight schedules.
Sailing Yacht Charters
Sailing yacht charters suit guests seeking a more traditional, intimate experience at sea. Charters on sailing yachts offer peaceful passages powered mainly by the wind, creating a closer connection to the water and an authentic sense of traditional sailing heritage.
Catamaran Charters
Catamarans are popular for their spacious decks, stable cruising, and easy access to the water. They are an excellent choice for families and groups who prioritise comfort and relaxation while enjoying a full range of on-water activities.
Gulet Charters
Gulet charters appeal to guests seeking both character and comfort. With classic lines and modern amenities, they provide a casual, welcoming setting for exploring coastlines and anchoring in scenic, sheltered bays.
Superyacht Charters
Superyacht charters are designed for travellers who expect the highest levels of luxury and service. Extensive deck space, a large professional crew, and fully personalised itineraries combine to create an exceptional luxury yacht charter experience.
