Bareboat yacht charters for complete freedom
Bareboat yacht charters are designed for skilled sailors looking to navigate without a skipper or crew. You’ll captain the yacht yourself, giving you the freedom to plan your route, set your own schedule, and immerse yourself in the adventure.
Available for groups of up to 12 people, these charters offer access to a fleet of modern yachts and catamarans from top shipyards like Beneteau, Lagoon, Bavaria, and Jeanneau. Whether you’re exploring the Cyclades in Greece or the Dalmatian coast in Croatia, bareboat charters provide the ultimate sailing experience.
Why choose a bareboat charter?
Bareboat charters offer unmatched freedom to explore iconic destinations and hidden gems at your own pace. In Greece, sail through historic islands like Corfu or the Sporades, while Croatia offers pristine waters and charming towns along the Adriatic coast.
Our fleet includes brand-new yachts equipped with advanced navigation systems and safety features. With charter bases conveniently located across both countries, embarking on your dream sailing holiday has never been easier.
