Charter · Greece
Charter a luxury superyacht in Greece and island-hop across the Aegean's most iconic destinations. From sunset cocktails above Santorini's caldera to hidden coves in the Ionian's emerald bays, Greece delivers one of the most varied and rewarding cruising experiences on earth.
Greek charter routes can be tailored to every pace: cultural explorers trace the ancient ports of Delos, Patmos and Rhodes; gastronomes work their way through island tavernas only accessible by boat; sunseeker families spend days between the Cyclades' pristine beaches. With 300 days of sunshine a year and Meltemi winds for cooling relief, Greece is the Mediterranean's most consistent cruising ground.
Quick Facts
FAQ
What is the best route for a yacht charter in Greece?
The Cyclades circuit (Mykonos → Paros → Naxos → Santorini → Folegandros) is the most iconic Greek route. The Ionian (Corfu → Lefkada → Kefalonia → Ithaka) offers calmer waters and lush green scenery. The Dodecanese (Rhodes → Symi → Patmos) suits cultural explorers.
When does the Meltemi blow in Greece?
The Meltemi (northerly wind) blows most strongly July–August in the Cyclades, reaching Force 5–7. It provides natural air conditioning but can limit tender excursions. June and September offer lighter conditions with full warmth. The Ionian is sheltered from the Meltemi entirely.
Is Greek VAT charged on yacht charters?
Greece charges 12% VAT on charter contracts for charters starting in Greek waters. Charters beginning outside Greek waters are exempt, though itineraries must spend the majority of time outside Greece. We advise on structuring itineraries to minimise VAT legally.
