Destinations for Chartering
Destinations-
Mediterranean- France, Greece, Turkey, Croatia, Corsica, Sardinia
The waters of the Mediterranean have to be seen to be believed. The most beautiful transparent blue green color you have ever seen, along with the amazing history of ancient civilization everywhere you look, the Greek Islands, Turkey and Croatia offers beautiful scenery and charming island towns. Aboard your yacht you can traverse the islands a day or two at a time exploring each waterfront village, shops and restaurants and ancient ruins. Best time to go is late April to mid June when the flowers are in bloom. Orthodox Easter week is a particularly exciting time to be in Greece, but rates are higher and it gets crowded. Best time to avoid huge crowds is before June. The Cote d’Azur is sophisticated and completely decadent- Canne, Nice, Monte Carlo, and Antibes. The playground of the rich and famous! From the Casinos in Monte Carlo, to it’s ancient villages to sophisticated nightclubs- it is “a must” in your lifetime to see! The flower markets in Nice are memorable too. The International Film Festival in Canne and Monaco Formula 1 Grand Pri are certainly exciting events to be a part of, but you must book very early. But the best time for the South of France is August when the weather is usually perfect. But it does get crowded! Italy Amalfi Coast and Capri is a favorite charter destination- beautiful beaches, steep cliffs, ancient villages, chic shops, and of course amazing food and wine. Fresh Seafood, Italian Pastas, and pizzas! What more could you ask for? How about the most magical coastline and wonderful people you’ll ever want to meet. Barcelona, Mallorca, Rome, Malaga, Puerto Banus. Such a hard decision! Where does one begin? Season begins mid April through June and October is also lovely.

More than 700 island beginning 55 miles off the Florida coast. Nassau is the hub of the action with wonderful dining, markets, nightlife, casinos, architecture and galleries to explore.
