Octopus Yacht Charter

About Octopus

A luxury yacht charter experience on Octopus combines true expedition capability with the comfort and polish expected at the top end of the market. At 414 ft (126.2 m) and built by Lurssen, she is designed for long-range cruising and accommodates up to 12 guests in a spacious cabin layout. Interiors by Jonathan Quinn Barnett feel refined yet relaxed, with a residential tone that suits extended time onboard and keeps the atmosphere easy rather than overly formal.

Octopus is an expedition yacht designed for remote cruising without sacrificing the lifestyle elements charter guests expect, including a helipad, elevator access between decks, and a full wellness focus. Key social areas flow easily from indoor lounges to open deck spaces, while features like the beach club and underwater lights help the yacht feel equally suited to daytime watersports and evenings at anchor.

Guest Accommodation

Octopus accommodation is arranged for up to 12 guests in 13 suites, including a full-beam master suite and 12 double cabins. This layout works well for adult groups and multi-couple charters, while also giving flexibility for varied cabin preferences depending on your party – a useful consideration when comparing sizes of yachts and cabin configurations.

Octopus’s master suite stands out for its scale and privacy, with a sitting area, twin bathroom setup, and floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the surroundings into the room. The private master deck area adds an elevated circular hot tub and whirlpool within teak surrounds, plus a bar and banquette seating, and a separate dining space sized for six guests.

Onboard Amenities

Onboard amenities on Octopus are geared toward both entertainment and recovery, which is a practical advantage on expedition-style itineraries. Guests can rotate between the spa and sauna, the gym and Hammam facilities, and social zones, including a dance floor, cinema, and multiple lounge environments, underscoring why she sits in the upper tier of yachts for charter.

Octopus also includes standout “experience” spaces that elevate time onboard between activities, including a dedicated music studio on the bridge deck with instruments available for guest use. A sports bar supports relaxed evening gatherings, while quieter options include a library-style lounge and an underwater observation lounge, where the view becomes part of the onboard routine.

Performance & Range

Octopus performance is built around a full-displacement platform with a steel hull and steel superstructure, prioritizing stability and volume over speed. She cruises at about 12 knots and can reach up to 19 knots, with a reported range of up to 12,500 nautical miles at cruising speed, enabling longer passages and more remote routing options for a charter destination that sits well beyond typical cruising circuits.

Octopus is also fitted with an advanced stabilization setup designed to reduce roll both at anchor and underway. For charter planning, that translates into a more comfortable onboard rhythm, especially on multi-day legs or when conditions are less settled.

Toys & Water Equipment

Octopus water toys are a major part of her expedition profile, designed to keep guests active across a wide range of conditions and locations. The headline capabilities include Triton 3300 submarines for underwater exploration, supported by a broad mix of towable and board sports equipment for higher-energy days.

Typical watersports options onboard Octopus include:

• Submarines (Triton 3300)
• Jet skis and multiple Yamaha WaveRunners
• Towables, waterskis, and windsurfing gear
• Kayaks and kite-surf style equipment
• A tender fleet of five tenders, including a 59 ft (18.1 m) Delta Powerboats tender
