Frequently Asked Questions

The best time for a yacht charter in Greece is between May and October. During this period, the weather is warm, and the seas are generally calm. July and August are the peak months, with hot temperatures and vibrant nightlife in the coastal towns, but they also attract larger crowds and higher prices. For a more relaxed experience with pleasant weather, consider sailing in May, June, September, or October. These months offer a good balance of favorable weather and fewer tourists, making your sailing experience more enjoyable.

Greece offers several excellent starting points for your yacht charter, depending on the regions you want to explore. Athens is a popular choice, especially for those looking to explore the Saronic Gulf and the Cyclades. Lavrion, located near Athens, is another convenient starting point, particularly if you plan to sail the Cyclades. Corfu is ideal if you’re interested in the Ionian Islands, known for their lush landscapes and calmer waters. Rhodes serves as a gateway to the Dodecanese Islands, offering a mix of history and stunning beaches. Mykonos and Santorini are also popular for those focusing on the Cyclades, though they can be more crowded during peak season.

Yes, it is permitted to sail from Greece to neighboring countries with a chartered yacht, but you must adhere to certain regulations. Before leaving Greece, you must clear customs and immigration at an official exit port. Upon entering a neighboring country, such as Turkey or Albania, you’ll need to check in with their customs and immigration authorities. Make sure all necessary documents are in order, including passports, yacht registration, and crew lists. Additionally, be aware of visa requirements and maritime regulations for both Greece and the country you are entering.

If you need to cancel or reschedule your booking, the options will depend on the specific terms provided by the charter company. Leading firms typically offer the following:

  1. Cancellation Policy: Refunds are usually based on how far in advance the cancellation is made. For example, if you cancel several months before the departure date, you may be eligible for a partial or full refund. Closer to the departure date, refunds may be reduced or not available at all.
  2. Rescheduling Options: Most companies allow you to change your booking dates or location, often with an additional fee depending on availability. Some offer free rescheduling if done within a certain period before departure, while others may charge administrative fees.
  3. Cancellation Insurance: It is recommended to purchase cancellation insurance, which can cover you in case of unexpected events. Many companies offer this option during the booking process, reducing financial risk.

Before booking a yacht in Greece, consider the following factors:

- Timing: Choose the best time of year based on weather, crowd levels, and your personal preferences.

- Starting Point: Select a starting location that aligns with the regions you want to explore.

- Bareboat or Crewed Charter: Decide if you’ll need a skipper or if you have the necessary qualifications for a bareboat charter. Greek authorities typically require a recognized boating license for bareboat charters.

- Inclusions: Check what’s included in the charter package, such as fuel, linens, and end-of-charter cleaning, as these can vary between companies.

- Cancellation Policy: Review the cancellation policy to understand your options if your plans change.

To secure a yacht in Greece, you typically need to pay a deposit, usually around 30-50% of the total charter cost, to confirm your booking. For a bareboat charter, ensure you have a valid boating license recognized by Greek authorities, such as an ICC (International Certificate of Competence) or an equivalent, and possibly a VHF radio license if you plan to operate the yacht’s radio. For crewed charters, no personal license is necessary, as the crew will manage all sailing and navigation. To finalize your booking, make sure to settle the remaining balance a few weeks before your departure, ensuring that all arrangements are in place for your trip.
