An Insider’s Viewpoint

“This is our second charter with Waypoints and we could not be more satisfied. Availability and pricing were clear, communication was prompt, and the staff was knowledgeable and nice. The Vinoy Marina is very convenient to a couple of airports so the crew had no problem coming in from all over the country. We think Waypoints is the best charter company available and already have another trip booked for January in St. Thomas!” Jim K.

“The entire team from the Waypoint dock manager, office staff, and dock hands as well as mechanics went above and beyond to make us have a great experience. Sailing Sereia changed me… it was such an incredible trip . With tears in my eyes, I left the boat and I have been counting the days until I can go back and sail her again. We loved all the crew we came in contact with – thank you again!” Constance M.

“We had a great experience with Waypoints Florida Yacht Charters! We spent four days in Florida on Leap of Faith and had a great time. It was our first sailing adventure. We explored Tampa Bay, Anna Maria, Egmont, Bradenton and Palma Sola. It was a great escape! “ Mark L.

What people are saying

“Canvas Yacht Charters and Doug are a pleasure to work with. Doug’s follow-up skills are remarkable and attention to detail are bar none. I very rarely leave reviews, but I can, without a doubt, recommend Canvas and Doug to everyone I know. Thanks again D!”

“We recently celebrated our 25th anniversary with three other couples, our dearest friends, on a week-long sailing charter. The trip was arranged by Doug Tibbs at Canvas Yacht Charters, and his assistance was invaluable every step of the way. He listened to our dreams for the trip, the things we were really hoping for and things we wanted to avoid, non-negotiates and crazy ideas, and he filtered them all to present us with several charter options, any one of which would have been wonderful, but we ended up on Ghost. Doug’s attention didn’t stop with the booking. He made sure we were kept aware of various important deadlines, including changes related to covid, connected us with the crew and conveyed to them all our preferences, and was available throughout to answer our big and small questions. This was truly the trip of a lifetime for every one of us onboard—the boat, the crew, the sailing, the food, the adventure. So many thanks to Doug for his care to make it everything we dreamed it could be—and we are already hoping to plan a repeat trip for next year!”

“It’s not often that I end up leaving a review for a service I didn’t end up booking, but the super customer service I received from Heather at Starrluxe definitely merits noting. From the first step in the process, she was helpful, professional, and extremely accommodating despite a difficult itinerary and an expedited time frame. She provided excellent options and went out of her way to address our every requirement. I deeply regret that our travel plans changed and we weren’t able to finalize our charter, but I greatly look forward to working with Starrluxe again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Enjoyed working with Doug. He was attentive to our needs/desires. Got us a great boat with a great crew. He even got us a price reduction. I will look forward to working with him again.”

“Doug and his team helped us book a trip in two days for the following week. Great communications and expectation setting, which helped make the trip successful. We will recommend them to family and friends for their trips. -Cheers, John”

How much does it cost to charter a yacht?

There are many things to consider and first time charterers can be left confused, that's why we've created a comprehensive guide to yacht charter prices (with a checklist).

The good news: It’s easy to grasp the basics of yacht charter pricing. And with one of our experts in your corner, we can help you more accurately estimate the cost of your next once-in-a-lifetime vacation.

The cost of a yacht charter is dependent on a number of factors, including the type of yacht, the charter destination, local taxes, and the base cost. (If the yacht has a celebrity owner, well that too, can add to the cost.)

Therefore, yacht charters have a wide range of base prices. That’s why charters can cost from $10,000 per week on smaller sailing yachts and catamarans, up to $150,000+ per week on the most luxurious motor superyachts.

What else can you expect to pay? This overview – a part of our planning resource, the Charter Advice Guide – offers an in-depth look at charter yacht costs.

Yacht Charter Price Structure: “All-Inclusive” vs “Plus Expenses”

In the world of yachting, two types of crewed yacht charters are available to you – “All-Inclusive” and “Plus Expenses” charter experiences. What do these terms mean exactly? Here’s a quick look:

• All-Inclusive Yacht Charters – Some charters (mainly catamaran and monohull charters in the Virgin Islands) offer all-inclusive rates. That means rates are based on the number of guests, and they include all food and drink, water sports, and fuel costs. Dockage and taxes, though, are usually charged separately.
• Plus Expenses Charters – Rates for larger motor yachts do not include running expenses, which must be paid separately. For these luxury charters, the base price is for the yacht only. Additional expenses, i.e. food, bar, fuel, dockage, port taxes, and other expenses, are charged separately. Most frequently, the running expenses are paid by an Advance Provisioning Allowance, or APA, which is typically 35% of the base price; this is an amount that’s paid prior to the charter.

Our chart below offers a quick overview of what’s included in both of these types of charters.

Average Yacht Charter Cost: Base Prices

What can you expect to pay for a catamaran, a sailing vessel, or motored yacht? Here’s a quick overview of the average cost to rent a yacht (not including extra expenses) for the most common types available:

Factors that Affect Yacht Charter Prices

Since charter yachts are privately owned, prices are set by the owner. This can explain, in part, the wide range of differences in price between boats of similar lengths. Yet, several other factors can significantly impact price, including:

• The Yacht – The year the boat was built, the builder, previous owners, and the boat’s selection of water toys can also increase the cost of a yacht. Boats can also develop a reputation, i.e. the largest or most luxurious, or having a famous builder or previous owner. Reputation can also affect pricing.
• Season – Prices typically increase in the high season – i.e. high summer in the Mediterranean or winter in the Caribbean – and decrease in low seasons.
• Destination – Your charter destination also plays a role in charter cost. For example, prices increase in areas without large charter fleets (i.e. the Galapagos), whereas Bahamas yacht charters,   BVI charters , or Mediterranean yacht charter are priced more competitively.

Additional Costs Considerations on Yacht Charter

In addition to the cost associated with running the yacht and provisioning, there are a number of other costs that must be considered. These are the most significant:

Advanced Provisioning Allowance

The APA on Plus Expenses charters equals roughly 35% of the yacht’s base price. This is a fee that’s collected prior to charter, and it’s similar to an expense account the captain can access during the charter. At the end of the charter, you will receive a detailed accounting of your APA account, plus any unused APA funds in cash.

In the case of overages, you may be required to replenish the APA account during the charter. This can be done with cash, although many choose to set up accounts with their charter brokers , which can be accessed if requested by the captain.

Taxes and Value Added Tax (VAT)

Most boats – whether all-inclusive or Plus Expenses – will not include local taxes or a Value Added Tax into their charter rate. The charterer will be responsible for paying those taxes. Taxes range significantly by destination; here’s a look at some of yachting’s most popular destinations:

• The Bahamas – Tax: 4% plus 10% VAT
• BVI – Tax: between $6 and $16 per person per day, depending on the flag of the boat
• Croatia – VAT: 13%
• Florida – Tax: 6% for Broward County, 7% for Miami-Dade County
• France – VAT: 20%, however, 10% can be applied when an itinerary includes International Waters
• Greece – VAT: 12%
• Italy – VAT: 22%, however 6.6% (over 24m) and 8.8% (under 24m) can be applied when an itinerary includes International Waters
• Montenegro – NO VAT
• New England – NO TAX
• Spain – VAT: 21%
• Turkey – NO VAT

Charterers can purchase cancellation and curtailment insurance – which is similar to traveler’s insurance. This insurance can help cover costs if a charterer must cancel or shorten the charter. Charter brokers can help you weigh insurance options, and often offer several different options.

Crew Gratuity

While crew gratuity is certainly not mandatory, it is recommended, particularly if you were truly impressed with your charter experience. In general, crew gratuity is roughly 15-20% of the base charter rate, which is handed to the captain at the conclusion of your charter.

Delivery Fees

While these fees do not apply on most charters, you may be asked to pay delivery costs if you are not chartering in the yacht’s normal cruising ground. In most cases, you will only be required to cover the fuel for the trip.

Additional Charter Cost FAQs

What are standard private charter yacht prices?

There are a number of factors that affect charter yacht pricing. However, on average, a week-long private yacht charter costs anywhere from $10,000 on luxurious sailing yachts and catamarans, and up to $150,000 for superyachts.

What affects charter yacht prices?

There are several things that influence how much your yacht charter will cost. The type of vessel, charter destination, length of trip, base cost, time of year, and local taxes all make a difference.

How much does it cost for a crewed vessel?

Charter yacht prices do increase when hiring a crew along with the boat. At Worldwide Boat, we offer two types of crewed charter experiences: all-inclusive and plus expenses. An all-inclusive charter yacht includes accommodation for all guests, food and drink, water sport activities, and fuel costs – dockage fees and taxes are charged separately. A plus expenses experience accounts for just the yacht’s base price. Things like food, drinks, fuel, dockages, taxes, and other expenses are charged separately and are usually estimated to be about 35% of the base price.

What’s included in all-inclusive boat charters?

At Worldwide Boat, your all-inclusive charter experience includes a diligent and friendly crew, water toys, food, drinks, fuel, water and electric services, and occasionally diving experiences.

What are some additional charter boat costs to consider?

After finding a base price you’re comfortable with and evaluating your package, you’ll also want to consider delivery fees, crew gratuity, insurance fees, taxes, and Advanced Provisioning Allowance rates. If you are responsible for these fees, your crew will handle the necessary transactions on your behalf.

What does it cost to rent a 100- foot yacht charter?

This depends on what type of vessel you’re looking at and how long you’ll need it for. The average weekly cost of a 100-foot sailing yacht is between $50,000-100,000. A weekly 80-foot catamaran charter runs around $40,000-100,000, and a week-long 100-foot motor yacht rental is anywhere between $50,000-80,000.

Does the price to rent a yacht change depending on what type of boat it is?

Yes. Worldwide Boat offers sailing yachts, catamarans, and motor yachts. All of these vessels have different capabilities, but there are other factors that determine the price beyond what type of boat you choose. The year the boat was built, owner, availability of water toys, onboard amenities, and the ship’s reputation can all change how much the ship is priced at.

When is the high season for yacht charters?

The price of a yacht fluctuates depending on the season. A Mediterranean yacht charter cost rises in the summer and drops in the winter, whereas Caribbean boat charter prices are high during the winter and lower in the summer months.

How does my destination affect charter yacht cost?

The more remote an area is, the more expensive it will be to charter a yacht there. That’s because prices go up in areas that have fewer boats. If you were to travel somewhere like the Galapagos, which isn’t a typical yacht destination, you’d pay more than you would if you were traveling to the Caribbean.

How much do I tip the crew when reviewing my yacht charter expenses?

It’s not required that you tip your crew, but it is recommended and appreciated. If you had an enjoyable experience it’s considered polite to tip your crew anywhere from 15-20% at the end of your charter.

USVI Sailing Itineraries

US Virgin Islands 7-DAY Itinerary

Sailing around the beautiful US Virgin Islands could not be easier!

Fly into STT – Cyril E King International Airport in St Thomas and then a short taxi ride to your chosen yacht which can be fully provisioned for your arrival, if you wish.  We offer bareboat (no captain provided where you and your crew have the skills to sail yourself), captain only/chef only or fully luxury crewed yacht charters .  Give us a call today at +1 877 494 8787 or +1 284 494 8787 or click here for more information.

Here is a sample itinerary so you can start dreaming about your US Virgin Islands sailing charter.  Why wait, contact us and let us help you plan your USVI yacht charter

Welcome aboard! Boarding times vary on the charter company. When you are ready to depart, you can enjoy a lovely sail over to Caneel Bay on St John, which is a perfect stop for an overnight for your first evening on board. This is a beautiful bay to enjoy an evening walk along the beach and enjoy some sundowners on the deck before dinner!

Wake up at your leisure and enjoy your coffee on the bow, take in the beautiful morning vistas. If you are feeling energetic, enjoy a quiet paddleboard along the shallow shores and experience the tranquillity of the Caribbean morning.  After breakfast, set sail and head to the famous Trunk Bay to explore the underwater world before lunch. Then off to Francis Bay or a little further east to Waterlemon Cay, Leinster Bay, St John, for the night. There are some great trails onshore to stretch out your sea legs, particularly the trail up to the Annaberg Plantation, which is in great condition and takes you back to the days of milling sugar cane to make rum.

In the morning, there is plenty of time for a lovely snorkel before you head off to Coral Harbor, located on the South-Eastern side of St John. Here, there is a fun, floating taco bar serving amazing tacos, you can dine in one of their large floating tables, pick up and dine on board or they will deliver to your yacht. If you head ashore to walk around, you will find the Calabash Market, in Johnson Bay where there are some souvenir shops, pottery shops and some clothing stores to browse around.  Lots of fun and good restaurants for dinner options too or have a short afternoon sail around to Hansen Bay for your overnight.

After breakfast, a nice short sail around the south point of St John to the turtle viewing hotspot – Lameshur Bay National Park. There is a great walking trail/hike called the Yawzi Point Trail for you to enjoy and stretch your legs. If the weather is good, you can head to a bay around the corner called Genti Bay and explore some more sugar mill ruins. If not, then a taxi can be arranged if you would like to see this historical site.   Head to Great Cruz Bay for your overnight anchorage.

Today would be a great day to take in some of the beautiful sites of St John – either taxi over or sail around to Cruz Bay which is the heart of St John.  Normally hustling and bustling with cruise ship activity, it is so quiet without the ships in port at the moment, a perfect time to go ashore! We can arrange an island tour for you to enjoy some of the beautiful National Parks sites that St John has to offer. This would be a great time to get some shopping in, and sample some of the local VI cultures and have a lovely lunch or dinner ashore or have a gentle afternoon sail across to overnight at Christmas Cove on Great Saint James Island, which homes the famous and award-winning floating restaurant Pizza Pi that serves amazing homemade Italian pizzas! Something different to see, for sure.

Sail to Water Island, which gets its name from being one of the few places in the Caribbean with freshwater ponds where sailing vessels of old could replenish their freshwater casks. You can get a ferry ashore to Crown Bay Marina if you would like to explore historical Frenchtown and Charlotte Amalie – also renowned for fabulous shopping and restaurants.  Or spend the day exploring by dinghy (but watch out for traffic in this busy area), getting yourself ready to think about packing up the boat to head back to the Marina.

Sail back to base to complete your charter, have your debrief and hand over the yacht, getting ready to head back to the Cyril E King Airport for the flight home (no further PCR tests are required for entry back to the US from the USVI).

This itinerary can be extended a few days to allow time to sail and explore Hans Lollik Island and Little Hans Lollik on the North of St Thomas; the beautiful Magen’s Bay, St Thomas and for the more adventurous sail west to the beautiful Spanish Virgin Islands of Culebra (where you will clear Customs), Culebrita, and Vieques.  Or sail South to the beautiful island of St Croix – or do both!

The Ionian Sea is dotted with idyllic secluded islands and charming cosmopolitan destinations, providing the perfect setting for a yacht charter holiday. This 7 Day Ionian Sea yacht charter is the perfect way to discover some of the region’s most beautiful anchorages while soaring across azure waters. In this itinerary, you will see the norther part of the Ionian, including the island of Corfu and the coastal towns of Parga and Sivota. Under the seasoned and professional guidance of your skipper, you will explore charming ports and some of the finest blue seas in the world for swimming and snorkelling such as Alonaki, Vrika and Voutoumi.

Yacht Charter Day 0 – Arrival in Corfu

The island of Corfu will be the start of your Ionian Sea charter adventure. Known for its rich history, spectacular azure windows, and old-charm romance, stepping foot on Corfu is like being transported into another world. The island retains the influence of its Venetian past , and in addition to its impressive 217km coastline, has a ton to offer in terms of its cultural landmarks and cuisine . If you arrive early, you will have the opportunity to wander the streets before joining us onboard for check-in.

Yacht Charter Day 1 – Corfu to Sivota

Sivota is a coastal village on the mainland of Greece, only a half an hour’s drive from the port of Igoumenitsa . Despite it being a mainland destination, Sivota has a unique island feel to it . The coastline of Epirus is also known as the Epirus Riviera and remains one of the best-kept secrets for tranquil holidays in the northwestern part of Greece. Countless caves, stunning beaches, and small islets surround the small village. Among them, you will find the unspoiled beaches of Bella Vraka and Alonaki.

Yacht Charter Day 2 – Sivota to Parga

On Day 2, we leave Sivota behind for the picturesque bay of Parga . The town is built high on a verdant hill overlooking the nearby islands of Paxos and Antipaxos. In the center of the bay, we find the small islet of Panagia, a charming white church dedicated to the Holy Mary. The spot around the islet is great for snorkeling or diving. While much less known to international visitors, Parga boasts a luxurious holiday destination that rivals that of famous islands in the Cyclades like Mykonos and Santorini . Fantastic beaches with soft stretches of ivory sand can be found all around.

Yacht Charter Day 3 – Parga to Antipaxos

The next day we set sail for the small islet of Antipaxos , arguably one of the best places for swimming, diving, and snorkeling in all of the Ionian. The warm, shallow waters are perfect for the whole family to enjoy, and arriving by yacht charter has the added benefit of allowing us to beat the crowds. Set amongst the olive groves, we will find the beaches of Vrika and Voutoumi that will undoubtedly make it on your list of best beaches in the world.

Yacht Charter Day 4 & 5 – Antipaxos to Paxos

Some places are worth staying in for a bit longer. This is the case with Paxos , voted by Conde Nast Traveller as one of the best Greek islands to visit in 2022 for “seclusion and sophistication” . With less than 2000 inhabitants, but more than 200,000 visitors during the summer, Paxos is a dreamy spot where your Greek holiday wishes can come true. The small town of Gaios is a great place to explore when and if you feel like stepping away from the water. Visitors that are tempted to leave the yacht, will find a friendly and welcoming island with cozy restaurants and cafes and quaint shops for Greek souvenirs.

Yacht Charter Day 6 – Corfu and nearby bays

Cruising back towards the island of Corfu , there is still plenty to see and explore around its shores. With a spot on the list of the top 10 largest islands in Greece , Corfu offers stunning bays and coves that we will explore from the comfort of our yacht. Compared to the Aegean, the Ionian Sea provides calm and balmy winds that will allow us to cruise undisturbed towards all the well-known and hidden spots. This is the perfect opportunity to enjoy snorkeling, swimming, and scuba diving, but there is always the option of lounging on the deck. You can look forward to exploring the quaint fishing village of Petriti , the vibrant harbor of Mandraki , and countless coves and secluded bays.

Yacht Charter Day 7 – Return to Corfu

On our final day, we will make our way back to Corfu for disembarkation. We highly recommend adding a few more days to your itinerary to explore the towns and villages of Corfu and get a taste of the local culture, food, and ways of life. The Ionian islands have so much to offer, so if you wish to extend your charter trip, we recommend checking our other Ionian Sea itineraries that include the islands of Lefkada , Kefalonia , Zakynthos , and Ithaka .

7 Day Charter Itinerary in the U.S. Virgin Islands

You know you want it...

Mocka Jumbies and Rum...

Like hand-in-glove, yacht charters from the U.S. Virgin Islands traditionally include stops in the British Virgin Islands . The BVI’s closed borders due to the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted charter companies and crews to come up with USVI-only charter itineraries. Even after the beautiful BVI re-opens, USVI-only itineraries are perfect for U.S. residents that don’t have a passport and thus can’t travel to the BVI or for those who’d like to experience a few off-the-beaten-track anchorages.

“The USVI’s may be overlooked for their neighbor, the BVIs, but you’ll find that familiar Caribbean welcome and impressive beaches in the USVIs too,” says Dan Lockyer, vice president of global tourism for Annapolis, MD-based Dream Yacht Charter , which opened its USVI base at St. Thomas’ Compass Point Marina in June 2020. “St. John is renowned for its beautiful coastline and fine snorkeling among coral reefs, vibrant colored fish, turtles and rays. There are some fun dining options too that cater specifically to charter boats. It’s an ideal destination for any sailor.”

Sailing with Charlie with The Itinerary

In addition to exceptional snorkeling, fishing, sailing, world-class beaches, and laid-back beach bars and restaurants, the USVIs feature easy access not found in nearly any other Caribbean island, adds Ian Pedersen, senior marketing manager for the Clearwater, FL-headquartered The Moorings and Sunsail , which opened a base at IGY’s Yacht Haven Grande Marina on St. Thomas in March. “Featuring non-stop flights from multiple major East Coast hubs, St. Thomas is just a quick (and relatively inexpensive) flight away, and being a U.S. territory, no passport is required for U.S. citizens. Aside from Puerto Rico, no Caribbean destination is as convenient a getaway as the USVI.”

A typical 7-day itinerary for the USVIs features charter stops in St. Thomas, St. John and the territory’s surrounding rocks and cays. St. Croix, located 40 miles to the south, could be a bit ambitious to reach given the distance, but there are ways to include the nicknamed ‘Twin City’ island’ into an itinerary (see Sidebar) .

Day 1: Christmas Cove & Red Hook, St. Thomas.

Cast off en route to St. Thomas’s east end. “Visit Christmas Cove on Great St. James, then try the floating pizza restaurant Pizza Pi – delivery and pick up options available. Before picking up dinner, snorkel the bay and get close to the variety of marine life,” suggests Dream Yacht’s Lockyer. Or, in the evening, dinghy around to Red Hook. There are several restaurants and bars here, as well as clothing, jewelry and watersports shops.

Day 2: Magens Bay, St. Thomas.

Sail around the northeast coast of St. Thomas to the Atlantic Ocean and then west to Magens Bay. “Magens Bay is one of the most popular beaches in the USVI and was voted one of the top 10 most beautiful beaches in the world by National Geographic,” says The Moorings and Sunsail’s Pedersen.  

Day 3: Cruz Bay, St. John.

Head east, across Pillsbury Sound, to St. John. Pick up a mooring off Honeymoon Beach, then dinghy into Cruz Bay. “Discover the Virgin Islands National Park, which has its Visitor’s Center in Cruz Bay. There are many bars, restaurants and shops in Cruz Bay,” says Lockyer.

Day 4: North Shore Beaches, St. John.

Spend the day exploring St. John’s north shore beaches. “The crown jewel of the Virgin Islands National Park, Trunk Bay, is an unbelievably photogenic paradise. Featuring 650 feet of underwater trails, this is the perfect place to snorkel,” recommends Pedersen. Then, go to Francis Bay to overnight. “Maho Bay Beach is a great place to spot turtles and rays in the seagrass and shallow waters. If you want to try the local atmosphere, get lunch at Maho Crossroads – a pop-up village with food and bar,” adds Lockyer.

Day 5: Waterlemon Cay & Leinster Bay, St. John.

Located east of Maho Bay, this small uninhabited cay and surrounding bay feature plenty of healthy coral. Look out too for starfish, conch and turtles. “If you are in the mood to explore, walk to the Annaberg Plantation sugar mill ruins. For lunch, head over to Hansen Bay to taste the tacos from the floating restaurant Lime Out. You can dine sitting at their seats and tables in the water,” suggests Lockyer.

Day 6: Coral Bay, St. John.

It’s just a short sail away from Leinster Bay to this easternmost settlement on the island. There are several bars and restaurants here, many of which offer live music on the weekends, as well as a mail service, grocery store and souvenir shops. Historical sites include the Emmaus Moravian Church and ruins of the 18th-century Danish fort, Fortsberg. To explore further, sail southwest to Salt Pond Bay for a quiet overnight.

The Ugly Aspects of the Seemingly Perfect Paradise

Day 7: Water Island.

Prepare for a half-day passage to Water Island and Honeymoon Beach, located just off St. Thomas Charlotte Amalie harbor. “Listen to live music and dine at Heidi’s Honeymoon Grill or Dinghy’s Beach Bar & Grill. Or you can overnight in Lindberg Bay and dine at beachfront Emerald Bay Resort,” says Lockyer. St. Thomas’ Cyril E King Airport is across the street from this resort. Or the Moorings base is a 30-minute motor sail away and Dream Yacht’s Compass Point base is a 1-to-2-hour sail east. These 7 days of itinerary suggestions make the perfect way to see the USVI by sea.

St. Croix should be part of Every Charter Itinerary

See below if you are curious about what you might expect from your yacht charter vacation. Remember that each itinerary is purely indicative and can be customized according to your requests!

Hatch a 7-day Charter Itinerary in a Superyacht along the Bahamian Islands

Are you longing for the ultimate luxury yacht charter experience amidst the enchanting beauty of the Bahamas?

The Bahamas, an archipelago of 700 islands and coral cays, boasts striking coral reefs and a fascinating maritime heritage. 

Nassau’s harbor is a bustling hub of international activity, where merchants engage in trade, shoppers hunt for bargains, and the occasional celebrity blends in with the vibrant hustle and bustle. Many 5-star marinas are just a short tender ride away from the airport, extending an invitation to linger and explore the surrounding area. With casinos, bars, and gourmet restaurants, your evenings are packed with entertainment, while your days can be filled with adventure or visits to the local museums.

Our recommended 7 days yachting itineraries from Nassau: 

Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas, is a popular starting point for yachting adventures in the beautiful waters of the Bahamas. There are several fantastic yachting itineraries you can consider, depending on your preferences, the duration of your trip, and the stops you’d like to make. Here are a few possible yachting itineraries starting from Nassau:

• From Nassau to Eleuthera
• From Nassau to the Exumas 

1) Week Yacht Charter Itinerary from Nassau to Eleuthera, Harbor and Paradise Islands

Day One – Nassau

You will begin your sailing itinerary from Nassau, Bahamas’ capital, which with nearby Paradise Island, offers 5-star beaches, casinos, boutiques, and luxury resorts.

Here there are plenty of ways to spend your time, whether you just want to relax or you want to discover all that this beautiful location has to offer:

Bay Street is the main street in the city. It is the shopping center, and here you can find the boutiques of the most expensive jewelers, souvenir shops, duty-free liquor, and much more. On the sides of the road, you can see the typical buildings that reflect the style of the ancient British colony.

Fort Fincastle is one of the main places to visit in Nassau. It was built in 1793 using limestone in a strategic position on the top of Bennet hill to protect the historic center of the city and its port. From here, you can enjoy a fantastic view of Paradise Island. You must walk through the famous Queen’s Staircase to reach the fort. It was built together with Fort Fincastle for defensive purposes and has 65 steps. The name was given in memory of Queen Victoria.

Finally, if you want to spend a few hours on the beach, the closest to the center is Junkanoo Beach, also called Western Esplanade. This area connects the two shores of Arawak Cay and Long Wharf. They are the most relative to downtown Nassau and are a few minutes walk from the cruise ship dock. The sand is white and beautiful. However, this country can offer a much better beach and sea.

Day Two – St George’s Cay

You’ll be at St George’s Caye by the second day of your yacht charter itinerary from Nassau. Famous for its lobster, this island is just to the north of Eleuthera. You can explore the Spanish Wells and sample some of the finest cuisines the Bahamas has to offer.

St George’s Cay is just a few hours by boat from New Providence island.

Famous for its lobster, this island is located just north of Eleuthera and is mainly known for the Spanish Wells resort. The isolation, silence, and serenity breathed in these places attract visitors, who also find turquoise waters accompanied by the sound of the light Atlantic surf.

The Spanish Wells is a magical place. Whether you are looking for a relaxing beach or adrenaline-pumping activities, Spanish Wells Bahamas has something for everyone.

Its beaches are beautiful and empty. White and dusty sand, shallow turquoise waters. A safe place for the whole family, perfect to let your loved ones, especially the little ones, have fun in absolute tranquility. Exactly what you want for your beach vacation.

Fishing is also excellent in this area thanks to the great diversity of species that populate the sea. You will have the opportunity to practice different styles, including deep sea fishing, reef fishing, bone fishing, spearfishing, and other variations that suit all your preferences.

Day Three and Four – Eleuthera

At the halfway point of your navigation, your journey comes alive. A short distance from St George’s Cay is Eleuthera and Harbor Island, considered by many to be one of the liveliest and most chic parts of the whole country.

Small Harbor Island is a real gem and a must for tourists and celebrities who choose this area. It is a picturesque island characterized by historic New England-style architecture. Still, it is best known for its beautiful Pink Sand Beach, located along the eastern side of the Atlantic Ocean. The beach stretches for about three miles and is 50 to 100 feet wide. Considered one of the best beaches in the Bahamas, it has been included in The Travel Channel’s Best Beaches in the World segment.

The almost indescribable pale pink color of the sand comes from microscopic coral animals with a bright pink shells. These animals live on the underside of coral reefs, on the seabed, under rocks, and in caves. After the death of the insect, the action of the waves mixes the shell with sand and coral pieces, creating this particular effect. Unlike other parts of the world, the sand here is always fresh so that you can walk freely in bare feet!

Eleuthera is instead a vast expanse of wild beauty. It is the largest island in the area, extending from north to south for kilometers. The Glass Window Bridge will leave you breathless among the many natural wonders it offers its visitors. It is one of the few places in the world where you can compare the rich dark blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean on one side of the road and the tranquil turquoise Eleuthera Bay on the other, separated only by a strip of rock. about 30 feet wide.

The Queen’s Baths (or hot tubs) are located south of the Glass-Window Bridge, on the Atlantic side of the island, and are fabulous natural pools carved by centuries of waves beating on the rock. The best time to visit them is during the low or medium tide.

Day Five – Harbor Island

This day is dedicated to diving. It would be a waste to visit the Bahamas without seeing the wonders that its seabed offers.

Eleuthera and Harbor Island waters count more wrecks than any other island in the Bahamas. What’s more, coral reefs and dive sites are affordable for everyone.

With visibility up to 60 meters deep and waters with the perfect temperature for most of the year, they hardly compare to an ideal diving destination!

Day Six – Surfer’s Beach

Governor’s Harbor is a charming town on Eleuthera and is also home to Surfer’s Beach, one of the best surfing areas worldwide.

If surfing the waves is your thing (even if you’re a novice), put on your gear and head to Surfer’s Beach, where southwestern winds blow from the Atlantic. It is the second-largest beach in the world for surfing, and many experts compare surfing here with the Hawaiian Islands.

Even if you’re less sporty and just want to watch, the two-mile stretch of beach has some of the best sugary white sands in the Bahamas!

Day Seven – Back to Paradise Islands

End your week aboard your charter yacht by returning to Nassau. More precisely, head to Paradise Island, and before disembarking, enjoy the white sand and the blue sea for the last time. You can alternatively take the opportunity to visit one of the most exclusive and iconic resorts in the world: the Atlantis Bahamas Resort .

Note: itinerary days or week/s can be adjusted and amended per individual guest choice .

As night descends, let the rhythm of the evening carry you to Kermit’s Hilltop Restaurant and Tavern, a venue offering unrivaled vistas, live musical melodies, and the chance to dance the night away. For a dash of adventure, visit the Staniel Cay Yacht Club, where you can rent a golf cart and embark on explorations that unveil the island’s hidden gems.

To ensure a friendly interaction, remember to utilize a stick when offering them grapes or bite-sized fruits, safeguarding your hand from any unexpected nips.

Wander the island’s enchanting landscapes, embracing the opportunity to bask in the sun’s embrace upon the pristine beach. After a day of exploration, return to the welcoming embrace of your yacht, where an evening of relaxation and serenity awaits.

Day five - Exuma Park

Your next destination beckons, leading you to the renowned Exuma National Park, celebrated for its unparalleled natural splendor and the crystal-clear embrace of its pristine waters. Noteworthy for its commitment to conservation, this locale offers an ideal canvas for exploration and adventure, with an array of water toys at your disposal. Immerse yourself in the awe-inspiring world of marine life, or opt for a leisurely kayak excursion through the glistening waters, ensuring an afternoon brimming with enjoyment.

As the sun gently descends, find solace on the deck of your yacht, where you have the freedom to curate a laid-back evening that caters to your desires and preferences.

Day six - Highbourne Cay

Upon your arrival at Highbourne Cay, savor the simple joys that this idyllic haven has to offer. Take a leisurely stroll along the powdery white sand beaches, immerse yourself in a captivating book, take a refreshing dip in the crystalline waters, or simply relish the tranquility of doing nothing at all. For those inclined toward more active pursuits, the opportunities are boundless, including the delights of diving and snorkeling, among others.

Indulge in a delightful dining experience at the waterfront restaurant, perched elegantly overlooking the marina beach. Here, you can savor the freshest seafood and fish dishes, a true embodiment of the island’s culinary essence. As the evening unfurls under a canopy of clear skies, consider engaging in a bit of stargazing, from the intimate privacy of your yacht, marking a magical conclusion to a fulfilling day.

Disembark in Nassau

As your journey nears its conclusion, return to Nassau on your final day. Here, bid a fond farewell to your devoted Captain and the dedicated crew who have made this adventure truly memorable.

The British Virgin Islands (or BVI) are a collection of islands in the Caribbean, just East of Puerto Rico. They have been dubbed the “playground for the rich and famous” and are undoubtedly the perfect setting for relaxing and luxurious yacht charter holidays.

This privately owned and uninhabited island is said to have inspired Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island . It is a heaven for snorkeling enthusiasts, with options whether you are a beginner or not.

Day 3 – spanish town to mountain point.

From Spanish Town, we make our way north to Mountain Point , between Saddle and Long Bay.

A perfect spot for recreational diving and educational activities for children and adults.

Types of Charter Yachts

We recommend either chartering a   catamaran   or a motor yacht f or your crewed yacht charter vacation in the British Virgin Islands. Why? The water in the BVI is very shallow, which greatly limits accessibility for deep-drafted yachts.

“We have seen a growing demand for luxury motor yachts among high-end charter guests.”

Day 5 – North Sound to Anegada

From North Sound, it’s time to head even further north. Anegada is the third largest barrier reef in the world and host to the famous BVI full moon parties .

The name Anegada was given by the Spanish and translates to “Downed Land” for its flat terrain.

The highest point is only 28 feet above sea level. Its dreamy, powdery beaches go on for miles, while the coral landscape makes this a perfect spot for underwater explorations.

The island is known for its fresh seafood, especially lobster , which you’ll find on offer on every menu.

> Sailing Anegada – important information: 

• It is best to book restaurants ahead, especially for lobster! 

> Sailing Anegada – don’t miss:

• Try the Cow Wreck Beach Bar take on the famous Painkiller
• Snorkeling around Horseshoe Reef

Day 6 – Anegada to Jost Van Dyke

A beautiful day of sailing is ahead of you on Day 6 as you make your way south towards Jost Van Dyke . The island is famous for the Soggy Dollar , a laid-back beach bar that you will have to swim to reach, hence the name.

Its specially blended dark rum, pineapple, orange juice, and cream of coconut cocktail has become synonymous with Caribbean holidays since its creation in the 1970s.

> Sailing Jost Van Dyke – important information: 

• White Bay can be a crowded spot. 

> Sailing Jost Van Dyke  – don’t miss:

• Swimming at Sandy Spit and Diamond Cay.  
• Grabbing the signature Painkiller at Soggy Dollar 

We recommend these 10 BVI catamaran charters for 2024/2025:

Our senior charter broker, Yanna Pristas, has selected these 10 catamarans as a proposition of the first choice when choosing a crewed catamaran for a crewed catamaran charter in the BVI. Note that many of these are booked way ahead; inquiring early is essential.

Terms and Conditions

Important Information

Cruise Ship Passengers:

If your cruise ship itinerary or departure times change within the cancellation policy of your vessel, we will do our best to assist you in finding other alternatives. However, in most cases we will not be able to issue any kind of refund. It is for this reason, that we strongly recommend you have travel insurance, as cruise ship schedules are known to change frequently.

Your Responsibilities:

Please advise us before booking if any passengers are under 18 years old to ensure this is the appropriate trip. 

You must reconfirm all booked tours prior to travel as specified on your voucher. If applicable, notes such as dietary requirements, pick-up locations and additional fees should also be confirmed at this time. Reconfirmations cannot be actioned through Sailing Whitsundays/Mr Travel, and must be done so directly through the Service Operator as specified on each ticket.

It is your responsibility to notify us of ticket discrepancies. Please read through the details on your voucher thoroughly to ensure all details such as passenger names, ages and dates of travel on vouchers are correct.

It is the responsibility of all passengers travelling to advise both your travel agent at the time of booking and the vessel check-in agent before boarding of any medical conditions including food allergies you may suffer from.

You need to allow adequate time to check-in prior to the specified departure time. 

Prices/Extra Costs:

All prices are stated in Australian dollars and include GST. Surcharges over peak holiday seasons may apply. 

The Service Operator reserves the right to alter prices and extra costs. Extra costs may include EMC fees, Stingersuit/Wetsuit Hire, Luggage Storage, Insurance, Linen Hire, National Park Fees, Fuel Levies, Dietary Fees, etc. Bonds may also apply.

We will also endeavour to communicate these extra costs with you at the time of booking, and on your ticket. However, it is your responsibility to confirm which (if any) additional costs apply with each Service Operator upon reconfirming your trip.

Travel Risk/Insurance:

It should be noted that adventure travel involves risk. Whilst we make every effort to safeguard clients, we cannot be responsible for personal injury or loss due to the actions of our clients which are beyond our control. We highly recommend that all clients have travel insurance covering illness, injury, loss or damage to personal belongings and not being able to travel on the confirmed date of departure. You should also ensure your travel insurance will cover special circumstances including weather events preventing guests from travelling to their tour departure destination and cancelled flights due to unforeseen circumstances. 

Merchant Fees:

Please be aware operators pass on credit card merchant fees so there is a non-refundable 1% surcharge for VISA and MASTERCARD card purchases.

Other: 

Terms and Conditions (including the Cancellation Policy) are subject to change. The most recent versions can be found online on the relevant product pages. 

All ticket/voucher reissues attract a $20 administration fee.

Open Date Vouchers / Gift Certificate:

Shipping Costs are in addition to the ticket price and will be added at check-out. Shipping costs are non-refundable and do not makeup part of the ticket value. 

E-Vouchers incur no shipping fees. You have 5 years to use the value of the voucher. Seasonal Price Rises will apply if travelling out the current seasons pricing. Vouchers can be exchanged for free up to the full value of the voucher excluding credit card fees and charges.

Cancellations

Client Cancellations:

All cancellations forfeit the non-refundable deposit. All balance payments are due 2 months prior to departure. Failure to pay the remaining balance before this scheduled date will result in termination of the charter and forfeit of the non-refundable deposit. Once the balance payment has been made, no shows and client cancellations made within 30 days of departure forfeit 100% of the full ticket price.

It is compulsory that all cancellation requests are in writing and sent via email to [email protected]. Cancellations attempted via online chat or phone will not be actioned.

Supplier Cancellations:

The Service Operator reserves the right to alter prices, alter itineraries, apply a fuel surcharge, cancel departures, arrange alternative transport and vary itineraries and services if necessary.

All departures and itineraries are subject to weather. Tours may be changed or cancelled for any reason at the discretion of the Service Operator. If the Service Operator has to cancel the trip or activity (prior to departure) and we cannot offer a suitable alternative, then a refund will be given minus a 20% administration fee and any associated card fees. We strongly recommend that you have travel insurance, especially during the wet season.

In the unlikely event of your trip being cancelled or stood down, all guest communication is required to go through our Online Store via telephone or email. While there is a Sailing Whitsundays retail outlet located Airlie Beach, please be aware that they operate as a separate entity and are unable to access reservations made by the Mr Travel online department.

All refunds are in Australian Dollars and must be made to the card of payment. Sailing Whitsundays/Mr Travel is not liable for exchange rate fluctuations or fees, or any other merchant/bank fees associated with domestic and/or international transactions.

Where a full refund is applicable, there is the option to transfer the whole cost of the tour to another tour or “Credit” to avoid the administration fee. A transfer fee of $20 will apply.

You will be emailed confirmation once the refund has been processed. Once the refund has been processed, it may still take time for the banks to clear the amount. Please allow 7-10 business days for the funds to clear into Australian accounts and up to 21 business days for international accounts.

Accountability/Misconduct:

All Service Operators have the right to provide client feedback and to cancel bookings based on feedback from other Service Operators. 

Please enjoy your travel experience in a kind and responsible manner.

Sailing Whitsundays/Mr Travel will treat this as any normal client cancellation and therefore the cancellation fees stated in the Client Cancellation Policy will apply.

Thank you for booking with our East-Coast travel experts here at Mr Travel/Sailing Whitsundays.  If you would like any further advice, assistance in arranging accommodation, transfers or additional tours please get in touch.
