Where to go for a 6-day yacht charter

Charter grounds whose season suits these dates. Ordered by how well the window fits, not by how many yachts we hold there.

Why these charter grounds suit the dates

Croatia

Expect glassy mornings and a reliable afternoon maestral – ideal rhythm for island-hopping the Dalmatian coast between Split and Dubrovnik.

Greece

The Ionian offers calm, sheltered waters ideal for families, while the Cyclades reward experienced crews when the meltemi blows in high summer.

Italy

June and September are the connoisseur's months on the Amalfi Coast and in Sardinia – warm seas, open berths and the coast at its most relaxed.

Spain

The Balearics run on gentle thermal breezes – Mallorca and Menorca for coves and calm, Ibiza and Formentera for the season's social calendar.

Turkey

The Turquoise Coast enjoys one of the Mediterranean's longest seasons, with sheltered gulfs around Göcek and Bodrum that stay calm even in high summer.

Ecuador

The Galápagos cruise year-round; the warm season's calm seas bring the gentlest crossings between Darwin's islands.
