Top 5 Yacht Charters For 2021

While hotel pools and beaches might be a nice way to spend your vacation and relax, if you truly want to experience the beauty and the magic of the sea, you should definitely consider chartering a yacht.

Not only will you gain access to some of the more secluded and picturesque beaches, but you’ll also get to enjoy more intimacy and luxury while on vacation.

The only remaining question is where you should go first, so here are some of the most incredible yacht charters for this year.

1. The Galapagos Islands

Those who love the fresh sea air and want to indulge in the intoxicating smells and the intense blue of the water but also expect something extra from their trip should sail around and to the Galapagos Islands.

Located in the Republic of Ecuador, these islands are bursting with greenery and are home to some of the most impressive creatures you’ll ever get to see. The colours of the island range from the turquoise of the sea and the golden of the sun to the white of the sand and the pink of flamingos.

In addition, these islands have a rich culture and history, meaning that you’ll have plenty to do once you decide to dock and browse your surroundings. The giant tortoise or the land iguana you can see there are merely some of the animals that inspired Darwin’s theory of evolution, so let it inspire you as well.

2. The British Virgin Islands

Some might say that this breathtaking archipelago was created solely for the purpose of yacht charter vacations, and with a good reason. Located in the Caribbean, BVI consists of four main islands and over 50 smaller islands and cays.

With merely 16 islands inhabited and most of the inhabitants situated on Tortola Island, nature remains more preserved in the rest of the island chain. The temperatures are tropical, meaning that it’s even possible to go sailing in winter and still catch plenty of sunshine.

Stunning beaches and crystal-clear waters combined with various bars and restaurants where you can taste some of the local cuisines and perhaps meet some new people will certainly enhance the entire experience.

3. Croatian Coast

Croatia is definitely an easy choice for a yacht charter vacation, as it has so much to offer in every aspect of tourism. The only problem is picking which part to visit first. There are over 700 islands in this amazing country, any one of which worth visiting and exploring.

The islands of Hvar, Brač and Ugljan are just some of the examples, as they boast various tourist attractions along with their magnificent beaches and clean sea. It would also be a shame not to sail around the Kornati National Park or the medieval city of Dubrovnik.

The decadence you can experience by finding yachts for charter in Croatia will be unforgettable, as you can choose from premium yachts in different sizes. You can opt for the ones which fit your needs and the number of people you’re planning to spend your vacation with so that you can revel in the astonishing beauty of the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea.

4. Seychelles

With its 115 islands in the Indian Ocean, Seychelles is a picturesque, out-of-this-world archipelago, and there’s no better way to immerse yourself in its magic and manage to see all of the islands than on a yacht off its coast.

The plant and animal species you can see there will enchant you, especially if you go snorkelling. If the sea-related activities don’t excite you enough, you can always go rock climbing, horseback riding, or even birdwatching on Bird Island.

Whether you’re a fan of coral reefs or jungles, sailing to Seychelles can be the best decision you make in 2021.

5. Greek Islands

It’s one thing reading about old Greek deities, but actually visiting the country where all of the marvellous stories were created is a completely different thing. There are thousands of islands in Greece, and seeing at least some of them will light up your imagination and make you see what those stories were really about.

The seas are dazzling in their beauty, and so are the islands, while the Greeks are famous for their hospitality and mouthwatering dishes. While on the sea, you can go diving and admiring the underwater life, but that’s just the beginning of what this country is about.

Sandy beaches, olive groves, hidden bays and those beautiful white and blue houses will leave you lacking words to describe how it all looks.

Plus, if you’re a fan of ABBA or Meryl Streep, you can actually visit the lovely town of Skopelos, where they filmed “Mamma Mia”.

What do you think about taking a yacht trip?

If you’re contemplating chartering a yacht, don’t wait too long. There are too many places simply luring you to visit for you to waste your time. So, choose a place to start and remember 2021 as the year you pampered yourself with a journey of a lifetime, or at least one of them.
