Yacht Charter Greece
Yacht charter Greece places you at the heart of the Mediterranean’s most storied cruising ground – a constellation of over 6,000 islands scattered across the Aegean and Ionian seas, where whitewashed villages tumble down volcanic cliffs and pine-clad headlands shelter bays of impossibly clear water. From the cosmopolitan buzz of Mykonos and the caldera drama of Santorini to the lush anchorages of Corfu and the crusader fortresses of Rhodes, Greece offers a depth of itinerary that few charter destinations can rival. The fleet here is one of the Mediterranean’s most diverse: luxury catamarans from 55 ft for relaxed island-hopping, modern motor yachts in the 68–98 ft range for groups seeking pace and comfort, and superyachts above 100 ft for the ultimate Aegean experience with full crew and chef onboard. Peak season runs from late June through August, when harbour-side tables across Hydra and Paros hum late into the evening; the shoulder months of May, early June, and September–October deliver quieter anchorages, softer golden light and sea temperatures that remain warm.
Charter rates start from €3,900 per day on a luxury catamaran, from €4,900 per day on motor yachts 68–78 ft, from €8,900 per day on the latest models in the 88–99 ft range, and from €11,900 per day on superyachts above 100 ft, plus 6.5% to 12% VAT and APA. No other charter destination weaves ancient mythology, world-class cuisine, and turquoise water into a single voyage quite like Greece.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book a yacht charter in Greece?
For peak-season charters between July and August, we recommend booking at least six to nine months ahead – the most sought-after yachts in the Cyclades and Saronic Gulf are often reserved by early spring. Shoulder-season charters in May, June, or September offer greater availability and can typically be confirmed three to four months in advance. Christmas and New Year voyages should also be secured early.
What is included in the charter price?
The base charter rate covers the yacht, professional crew, insurance, and standard onboard equipment including water toys such as paddleboards, snorkelling gear, and inflatables. Provisioning, fuel, berthing fees, and any additional requests are covered by the Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA), typically 25–35% of the charter fee. Greek VAT at 6.5%–12% applies to all charters departing from or cruising within Greek waters.
Can I combine Greece with a neighbouring region?
Absolutely. Greece’s position in the eastern Mediterranean makes it straightforward to extend a charter into Turkey’s Turquoise Coast – Bodrum and G’ocek are popular crossover points – or across the Adriatic to Montenegro and Croatia. Multi-country itineraries typically require two weeks and may involve additional cruising permits, which our team can arrange on your behalf.
What is the APA for a Greece charter?
The Advance Provisioning Allowance is typically set at 25–35% of the base charter fee and covers fuel, food, beverages, berthing fees, and any additional expenses incurred during the voyage. Your captain manages the APA fund throughout the charter and provides a full accounting at the end; any unused balance is refunded to you in full.
