Yacht Charter Cyprus
Yacht charter Cyprus takes you to the eastern Mediterranean’s most mythic island – the legendary birthplace of Aphrodite, where the chalk sea stacks of Petra tou Romiou rise from turquoise shallows on the south-western coast and the scent of wild thyme drifts down from the Troodos Mountains to meet the salt air. The island offers two distinct cruising coasts: the south, anchored by the vibrant marina towns of Limassol and Paphos, delivers cosmopolitan waterfront dining, ancient Kourion amphitheatre ruins, and access to some of the Mediterranean’s warmest swimming waters well into November; the quieter north presents the Gothic spires of Kyrenia’s harbour and the painted churches of the Karpas Peninsula. The charter fleet serving Cyprus numbers over 20 yachts: luxury catamarans from 55 ft, modern motor yachts in the 68–98 ft range with spacious sun decks and al-fresco dining, and superyachts above 100 ft for guests seeking the finest onboard experience. Peak season runs from late June through September; April–May and October–November offer warm seas, uncrowded anchorages, and an exceptionally long shoulder season.
Charter rates start from €4,800 per day on a catamaran, from €5,900 per day on a motor yacht, from €9,900 per day on the latest 88–99 ft models, and from €12,900 per day on superyachts, plus 19% Cypriot VAT and APA. Cyprus rewards the charter guest with warmth – in its waters, its hospitality, and its light – long after the rest of the Med has cooled.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book a Cyprus charter?
For peak-season departures between July and September, we recommend booking four to eight months ahead to secure the best yachts – the resident fleet is compact and the most popular vessels are allocated early. Cyprus’s exceptionally long shoulder season means that April–May and October–November voyages can often be confirmed with two to three months’ notice.
Can I combine Cyprus with a neighbouring region?
Yes. From Cyprus’s southern coast you can cruise west toward the Greek Dodecanese – Rhodes lies roughly 220 nautical miles away, a comfortable overnight passage on a motor yacht – or south-east toward the coast of Israel and Lebanon. Multi-country itineraries typically require ten to fourteen days, and our team can advise on routing, customs formalities, and any additional permits.
What is the difference between high season and low season pricing?
High season in Cyprus runs from July through September, when demand and daily rates are at their peak. Shoulder-season charters in April–May or October–November can reduce the base rate by 15–25%, and sea temperatures remain warm enough for swimming well into November – a significant advantage over most other Mediterranean destinations.
What is included in the charter price?
The base charter rate covers the yacht, professional crew, insurance, and standard onboard equipment including water toys. Fuel, provisioning, berthing fees at Limassol Marina and Paphos, and any special requests are covered by the Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA), typically 25–35% of the charter fee. Cypriot VAT at 19% applies to all locally contracted charters.
