Most people get here having already scrolled through a few hundred yachts, with no real way to tell which ones are any good.
That’s our job. Tell us your dates, who’s coming, and what you want the week to feel like. We’ll come back with a short list that actually fits, and we can tell you what each boat is like on board, because we’ve been on it. We’re independent, so we’re not pushing any one fleet.
One thing worth sorting before you look at yachts at all: where in Greece you’re going. The Ionian is green, sheltered and easy with kids. The Cyclades are more dramatic and more weather dependent, so flexibility is key. The Saronic is an hour from Athens and ideal if you are looking to charter a catamaran. We’ll help you work that out first.
Why charter with us?
- An independent brokerage — we work for you, not the fleets, with access to every yacht on the market.
- Brokers who know the Greek Islands first hand.
- 5.0 / 5 from 484 reviews — a track record you can check.
- Members of IYBA, CYBA, and ECPY, the industry’s leading brokerage associations.
- A team made up of sailors, ex-yacht crew, captains, and water sports enthusiasts.
- We step onboard the yachts we recommend at annual yachts shows like MEDYS, MYBA and EMMYS.

This is What a Yacht Charter in Greece Looks Like
CYCLADES
Iconic Greece, dramatic scenery, and big-name islands like Mykonos, Santorini, and Milos. Longer open-water legs and the summer Meltemi matter more here.
Explore
SARONIC GULF
Easy island-hopping from Athens, with classic stops like Hydra, Spetses, Poros, and Aegina. Shorter distances make this a strong relaxed one-week route.
Explore
IONIAN ISLANDS
Greener scenery, calmer conditions, and islands like Corfu, Paxos, Kefalonia, and Zakynthos. One of the best-value Greece charter regions.
Explore
DODECANESE
More history, a more local feel, and islands like Rhodes, Symi, and Kos. Distances can be longer here, so routing matters more.
Explore
SPORADES ISLANDS
Quiet bays, clear water, and a nature-led charter around Skiathos, Skopelos, and Alonissos. A strong choice for a slower pace and fewer crowds.

This is What a Greek Yacht Charter is All About
Wake up to a new beachfront every day
There is no better way to explore the Greek Islands than with a private yacht. It’s the comfort of a floating luxury villa, except your “waterfront” changes daily. One morning, you’re anchored off a turquoise cove with no one else around. The next, you’re pulling into Mykonos and sipping wine on the lively waterfront.
And it’s all designed around you. Before you arrive, we lock in your preferences, wake-up time, coffee strength, food, pace, and must-dos, so everything onboard revolves around you. Breakfast is ready when you are, the swim stop is timed perfectly, the toys come out the moment you feel adventurous, and sunset drinks appear exactly where you want to be. You say go, and we go.
Enjoy 5-star dining 100% tailored to your taste
On a yacht in Greece, the food is one of the highlights. Before you arrive, you’ll complete a preference sheet: what you love, what you don’t, meat preferences, favorite cuisines, any allergies or dietary requirements, and the chef plans the week around it, down to the smallest detail.
The level is serious. Yacht chefs are often trained in top restaurants (Michelin backgrounds aren’t unusual), so you’re getting proper, restaurant-standard cooking, privately, on your schedule. Expect beautiful Greek and Mediterranean dishes when you want them. Expect fresh-caught seafood, grilled octopus, crisp village salads, mezze spreads, charcoal-grilled lamb and souvlaki, silky taramasalata, and the freedom to switch to international favorites anytime, from sushi to American steak night.
Feel the thrill with your private beach club full of water toys
As soon as the anchor is down, the swim platform turns into a full beach club setup. The crew drops the ladders, launches the toys, and rolls out floating platforms that extend your “deck” onto the water — sun loungers, sea mats, and shaded spots to lounge right at sea level. You can step straight off the back of the yacht and into glass-clear water in seconds.
From there it becomes a playground for everyone. Paddleboards and snorkel gear for easy exploring, Seabobs and jet skis when you want speed, and on larger yachts the serious fun: inflatable slides, climbing walls, and towables that keep kids (and adults) busy for hours. Want it calmer? Float with a drink in a ring, stretch out on the sea platform, and let the bay do the rest — your private beach club, with every toy ready on cue.
Explore ancient temples, Greek villages, and islands you can only reach by yacht
One day it’s iconic Greece — the next it’s a hidden harbor you’d never find alone. Dock near a classic whitewashed town for an afternoon wander through narrow lanes, little boutiques, and a waterfront dinner, then wake up somewhere quieter that feels untouched.
And when you want culture, Greece delivers: ancient ruins, hilltop monasteries, and temples that still carry the stories of the gods. The difference is you’re not doing it on a rushed bus timetable — you arrive on your schedule, and you leave when you’re ready.

A Greek Odyssey
I have chartered a few times and mostly from one of the big brokerage companies that advertise very heavily in Boat International. John Boullin gave me the impression that he genuinely cared, which is unusual in this industry. [...] I would also like to recommend M/Y Akasti, which was the San Lorenzo that we chartered in Greece. The boat, the crew and the food were exceptional.

We had an absolutely incredible charter aboard Whitecaps. The catamaran was beautiful and impeccably maintained. The crew was fantastic and made our 9-day charter truly unforgettable. A special thank you to Marcelle Hailwax at DMA Yachting. She was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. [...] We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

This was our first time chartering, so we were nervous about what to expect, but Leo at DMA made the experience very smooth and seamless. [...] Leo also met us at the yacht on the first day to ensure everything was OK, and he checked in multiple times during the trip as well. [...] I would definitely do another charter, and wouldn't hesitate to call Leo again to arrange it!
