The site indexes roughly 1,200 charter yachts, 60 charter and day-charter destinations, 40 yacht builders, 20 broker and platform reviews, and 100-plus how-to and cost guides as of May 2026. The search above queries the full index. The structured browse paths below are usually the faster way to find what you are looking for. We recommend starting with the vertical and the destination rather than the keyword search if you know either.
Browse by vertical
Three verticals run independently, with different inventories, audiences, and price bands. If you are not sure which one fits the question you are asking, start with the vertical that matches the price band.
Weekly yacht charters, Crewed yachts from 24m to 180m chartering by the week, $50K to $2M per week, mostly Mediterranean summer and Caribbean winter. The browse paths run through 40 destination pages, 30 best-of guides, and 25 cost and how-to guides. Start here if you are planning a 7-day or 14-day crewed-yacht week.
Day charters, Boats from 30 to 80 feet rented by the day with captain and crew, $1,500 to $40,000 per day, available in 30 destinations across the Med, Caribbean, US, and Mexico. The browse paths run through destination pages, operator reviews on aggregator platforms, and cost guides. Start here if you are staying at a hotel or villa in a coastal city and need a boat for a single day.
Yacht brokerage, Yachts for sale from $2M to $300M-plus, new-build and pre-owned, routed through the 20 brokers we rank on the best yacht sales brokers page. Start here if you are evaluating a purchase, not a charter.
Browse by destination
The destination index covers the regions and ports where there is meaningful crewed-yacht or day-charter inventory. Mediterranean charter destinations (Côte d'Azur, Amalfi Coast, Sardinia, Corsica, Croatia, Greece, Turkey, Mallorca, Ibiza) and Caribbean charter destinations (BVI, Bahamas, St Barts, Antigua, the Grenadines, Anguilla, St Lucia) are the deepest. The Maldives, Seychelles, French Polynesia, and Norway round out the long-range destinations.
For day-charter destinations, Mykonos, Ibiza, Saint-Tropez, Cannes, Monaco, Amalfi, Cabo San Lucas, Miami, Nassau, Dubrovnik, and Hvar carry the deepest operator inventory. The full destination index is on the charter pillar and day-charter pillar pages.
Browse by yacht size
The size category is the fastest way to narrow the inventory if the destination is still open.
The 30m-to-40m band runs $50K to $150K per week and is the right band for first-time crewed-charter clients with 8 to 10 guests. The charter yachts 30 to 40m page covers the inventory.
The 40m-to-50m band runs $180K to $280K per week and is the heart of the midsize charter market. The charter yachts 40 to 50m page covers the inventory.
The 50m-to-60m band runs $280K to $550K per week and is the band where the beach club, full toy fleet, and 12-guest accommodation become standard. The charter yachts 50m and up page covers the inventory.
The 60m-plus band runs $500K to $2M-plus per week and is the band for flagship charters. The charter yachts 60m and up page and the charter yachts 80m and up page cover the inventory.
Browse by use case
For multi-generational families, the charter yachts families page covers the platforms with the right deck plans and stabilizer specifications. For couples on a quieter week, the charter yachts couples page covers the smaller-party fits. For groups of 10 to 12, the charter yachts groups page covers the 6-cabin-plus platforms.
For first-time clients, the how to charter a yacht first time guide is the right starting point and the how to choose a charter destination and how to choose charter yacht size guides cover the two decisions that shape the booking.
Search tips
The search above is keyword-based and matches yacht names, builders, destinations, broker names, and topic keywords. The 5 most-searched queries on the site as of May 2026 are "Saint-Tropez charter," "BVI catamaran," "Feadship review," "MYBA contract," and "Burgess vs Edmiston." If the query you are typing matches one of those, the structured browse path is usually the better starting point than the search result.
Queries that do not return useful results are typically misspellings of yacht names, builders we have not yet covered (we publish 200-plus builder profiles as the inventory feeds activate in late 2026), or destinations outside the regions where there is meaningful chartering. If your query returns nothing, the contact page is the right route.
