Yacht Charter Greece

Yacht charters in Greece start from approximately €3,000 per day for a 40 ft motor yacht and can exceed €40,000 per day for a superyacht. Weekly charters range from €15,000 to €300,000+ depending on vessel, season, and itinerary. The Cyclades and Saronic Gulf are the most popular regions. Bluebnc Yachting arranges Greek island charters with transparent, all-inclusive pricing.

The Cyclades (Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, Naxos, Milos) offer iconic white-washed villages and vibrant nightlife. The Saronic Gulf (Hydra, Spetses, Poros) is ideal for shorter charters from Athens. The Ionian Islands (Corfu, Kefalonia, Zakynthos) feature lush green landscapes and calm waters. The Dodecanese (Rhodes, Kos, Symi) combine ancient history with Turkish-influenced architecture.

The Greek charter season runs from May to October. June and September offer the best balance of warm weather (27–32 °C), calm seas, and fewer crowds. July and August bring the Meltemi winds in the Aegean, which can be strong in the Cyclades but create excellent sailing conditions. May and October are quieter with lower rates and pleasant temperatures.

Yes, but the distance (approximately 130 nautical miles) means this is best suited to a 7–10 day itinerary with island-hopping stops along the way. A typical route from Athens visits Kea, Kythnos, Serifos, Sifnos, Milos, Folegandros, and Santorini. Bluebnc Yachting can design bespoke Cyclades itineraries that balance sailing time with exploration.

The Meltemi is a strong northerly wind that blows across the Aegean Sea from June to September, peaking in July and August. It can reach Force 6–7 in the Cyclades, creating challenging conditions for smaller vessels. Experienced captains plan routes to use the Meltemi advantageously. The Ionian Sea and Saronic Gulf are sheltered alternatives during strong Meltemi periods.
