Yacht Charter Greece
Why Yacht Charter in Greece?
When planning a Greece yacht charter, you are met with countless options across one of the world’s most diverse island regions. With more than 6,000 islands and islets, Greece offers every style of yacht holiday, from the turquoise waters of the Aegean to the emerald coves of the Ionian. At Blue More Yachting, we work with you to select the most suitable option among sailing yachts, Motor Yachts, or gulets, tailored to your group size and preferences.
Departing from Athens-based marinas such as Alimos Marina, Marina Zea, and Flisvos Marina, you can easily reach the Saronic Islands. For Cycladic islands like Mykonos and Santorini, we plan routes starting from the islands’ own marinas. At every marina, we provide professional support and secure berthing facilities.
Greece’s unique advantage lies in its island diversity. From the vibrant, cosmopolitan atmosphere of Mykonos to the serene calm of the car-free island Hydra, from the dramatic volcanic caldera of Santorini to the expansive beaches of Naxos, every character is represented. We design either active or tranquil routes according to your group’s expectations.
On the Cyclades route, you can explore the sacred island of Delos; in the Saronic, the stone streets of Hydra; and in the Dodecanese, the monasteries of Patmos. Ancient Greek mythology and history accompany you at every stop. Watching the sunset at the Temple of Poseidon in Sounion will be one of the most unforgettable moments of your yacht holiday.
Based on your family or group size, cruising preferences, and the islands you wish to see, we prepare a fully bespoke route and yacht recommendation. With our 5 years of experience in Greece, let’s plan every detail together—from Aegean winds to the Meltemi season.
