A Protaras yacht charter is a sea day on a yacht along the east coast of Cyprus, with swim stops in the bays. Find more trip ideas on Greece Tours. Below we compare the slide yachts, the private charters, the sunset sails and the fishing trip, then the boats, harbours, guest limits, sea conditions and booking terms.
What is a Protaras yacht charter?
A Protaras yacht charter is a sea trip on a yacht from the Protaras coast of Cyprus. This page sorts 12 GetYourGuide gigs for that coast. They run from a shared yacht with a slide to a private yacht with a captain.
Wikipedia defines yacht chartering as renting a sailboat or motor yacht and travelling to coastal or island destinations. It names three kinds of charter: bareboat, skippered and crewed. Four private gigs below name a captain in the title or the summary, so they are skippered charters.
Protaras is a resort town in Famagusta District, and Wikipedia puts it under the Municipality of Paralimni. Wikipedia also places Cape Greco between the towns of Ayia Napa and Protaras. The 12 gig titles reflect that shared coast: seven name Protaras, seven name Ayia Napa and two name both.
GetYourGuide files the slide yacht under Ayia Napa and the Turtle Bay yacht tour under Protaras. It files the Blue Lagoon VIP cruise under Larnaca and the VIP sunset cruise under Limassol. Search a Protaras yacht charter by gig name, not only by town.
Trips across the whole island are listed on the Cyprus tours page. Shared cruises sit on our Protaras boat trip page. This page follows only the yachts, from the boat to the departure.
Which Protaras yacht charter options can you book?
GetYourGuide lists a Protaras yacht charter in five formats. They are slide yachts, a semi-private tour, private charters, sunset yachts, and a day cruise or fishing trip. Viator adds four more yachts and catamarans in the cards further down.
- Slide yachts: Protaras: Turtle Dream Lux-Yacht Big Slide & Optional BBQ (3.5 to 5 hours); Protaras: Luxury Sunset Yacht Trip with Slide, BBQ & 1 Drink (3.5 to 5 hours).
- Semi-private yacht tour: Ayia Napa/Protaras: Yacht Tour to Turtle Bay and Blue Lagoon (4 to 5 hours).
- Private charters: Protaras Riviera: Private Yacht Charter with Captain 7 Hours; Protaras Riviera: Private Yacht Charter with Captain 4 Hours; Ayia Napa/Protaras: Private Yacht with Unlimited Drinks (2 to 6 hours); Ayia Napa: Private Yacht Charter with Captain & Drinks (3 to 8 hours); Ayia Napa: Luxury Private Cruises with Catamaran (4 to 7 hours).
- Sunset yachts: Ayia Napa: Private Sunset Tour on an Azimut 62 Luxury Yacht (4 hours); Sunset VIP Cruise from Ayia Napa (4 hours).
- Day cruise and fishing: Protaras: Private Boat Tour with Fishing (2 to 4 hours); Blue Lagoon Vip Cruise from Ayia Napa (6 hours).
The group tag decides who sails with you on a Protaras yacht charter. GetYourGuide tags seven of the 12 as private group. They are the five private charters, the Azimut 62 sunset and the fishing trip. It tags the Turtle Bay yacht tour as small group.
The other four show no group tag. They are the two slide yachts and the two VIP cruises from Ayia Napa.
Review counts rank each Protaras yacht charter format too. The slide yachts lead, and the Turtle Bay tour follows. The private charters carry fewer reviews, and three of them show the New activity label.
Which boats does a Protaras yacht charter use?
A Protaras yacht charter uses motor yachts, catamarans and sailing yachts. The gigs name an Azimut 62, a Sea Ray SLX 400 and a private catamaran. Two gigs add a slide to a luxury yacht.
Wikipedia says a yacht is a sail- or motor-propelled boat made for pleasure, cruising or racing. It adds that no standard definition exists. So the word yacht alone does not tell you the size. Check the model name and the guest limit before any Protaras yacht charter.
Wikipedia says crewed charters take place on motor yachts more than on any other type. The fleet of Luxury Time Charters has eight motor cruisers. It lists the Ferretti 592 and the Princess 61 first. The Azimut 46, the Azimut 42 and four Sea Ray models follow.
The Cornelia has two 260 HP Volvo engines, says its website. It also has two double sunbeds, one at the front and one at the back. The Viator card for the luxury yacht cruiser in Protaras sits below.
A catamaran has two parallel hulls of equal size. Wikipedia says the wide gap between the hulls adds stability by resisting rolling and overturning. BednBlue calls catamarans the choice for comfort because of their space. The Ayia Napa catamaran gig offers a day or a sunset sail.
Click&Boat lists three boat types for Protaras: motorboat, motor yacht and sail yacht. BednBlue calls sailing boats the economical type, because they carry a large number of passengers on low fuel costs. One Click&Boat host reviewed a guest who sailed a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey around Protaras.
GetMyBoat adds RIBs, center consoles, glass-bottom boats and traditional wooden boats to its Protaras list. A yacht is one type among the others, so match the boat to your group.
Where does a Protaras yacht charter depart?
A Protaras yacht charter departs from Protaras Pier, Protaras Marina or Ayia Napa Marina, depending on the gig. Five of the 12 gigs show the Pickup available label, and the seven private gigs show none.
The slide yacht sets sail from Protaras Pier at 10:00am, says its GetYourGuide summary. The two Protaras Riviera charters leave from Protaras Marina. The private Sea Ray charter starts at Ayia Napa Marina. Pick the departure that sits closest to your hotel.
Click&Boat lists a private Protaras charter that starts and ends at Paralimni Marina. GetMyBoat names two common departure points. They are Protaras Pier by the main resort strip and Golden Coast Harbour. GetMyBoat also calls that harbour Paralimni Marina and puts it beside the St Nicholas chapel in Pernera.
GetMyBoat adds that hotel jetties serve as extra departure points in season. A Protaras yacht charter from a hotel jetty skips the walk to the pier.
The Pickup available label shows on five gigs. They are the slide yacht, the sunset slide yacht and the Turtle Bay yacht tour. The two VIP cruises from Ayia Napa carry it too. The seven private gigs carry no pickup label. Read the meeting point on each booking page before you pay.
What does the Lux-Yacht Protaras yacht charter with a big slide include?
The Lux-Yacht Protaras yacht charter is a family cruise of 3.5 to 5 hours. It brings a large slide, swimming stops, a chance to spot turtles and an optional BBQ lunch. GetYourGuide shows a 10:00 start and a 4.7 rating from 1,763 reviews.
This sailing is a group cruise, and GetYourGuide sells it per person. The Viator listing shows two departures. The first leaves at 10:00, with the latest boarding at 09:45. The second leaves at 14:00, with the latest boarding at 13:45.
The route of this Protaras yacht charter is a coastal sail with two swim stops. Viator lists the Blue Lagoon for 30 minutes and Green Bay Beach for 40 minutes. The yacht passes Fig Tree Bay Beach, Konnos Bay, the Agioi Anargyroi chapel and Cape Greco National Forest Park. GetYourGuide adds a sail past Varosha, the abandoned ghost town.
The big slide runs at one swim stop only. One review sums up the trip as two swimming points, one with a slide. Another review says the slide is open at one stop. GetYourGuide words the turtles as a chance to spot them, not a promise.
The Viator listing names the facilities on board. These are a restroom, WiFi and life jackets as flotation aids. Steps lead from the pier to the boat and down to the washroom. The listing marks the boat as not wheelchair accessible but stroller accessible.
Two items sit outside the ticket. Snorkelling equipment is not included, and gratuities and tips are not included. The live guide speaks Greek, English and Arabic.
What does a private Protaras yacht charter with a captain include?
A private Protaras yacht charter with a captain gives one group the whole yacht, a skipper and a planned route. GetYourGuide lists captained charters from Protaras Marina and Ayia Napa Marina. Each one is marked as a private group.
The two Protaras Marina charters head for Cape Greco with a captain on board. Guests swim in the Blue Lagoon, then explore sea caves and sheltered bays around Konnos and Ayia Napa. Both listings say small group only, so the yacht stays with your own party.
The Ayia Napa charter uses a Sea Ray SLX 400. Guests board at Ayia Napa Marina and cruise the east coast of Cyprus with a captain and a hostess. The listing adds swims in turquoise bays, snorkelling and time to relax on deck. It is a new activity with no reviews yet.
Charter sites list what a Protaras yacht charter with a captain covers. Rent Yachts in Cyprus lists a professional captain and crew plus fuel for the planned route. It also lists soft drinks, water and snorkelling equipment. It adds that each package depends on the yacht.
A Click&Boat charter from Protaras lists fuel, WiFi, a sound system, a restroom, a swim stop and the crew. The skipper speaks English and Greek.
Luxury Time Charters lists extras on top of the hire. They cover food and drinks, water toys, decor, fireworks, live music, and photos and videos. Ask for extras when you book a private Protaras yacht charter.
How do the 4-hour and 7-hour Protaras yacht charter options differ?
The 7-hour Protaras yacht charter runs 3 hours longer than the 4-hour charter, and the listing text stays the same. Both give a captain, a private group and the Cape Greco route from Protaras Marina.
Both listings carry the same rules. Each is marked small group only and private group. Each asks for 10 hours of notice before the start. Each carries one review so far.
Other operators on this coast give a benchmark for the clock. A Click&Boat charter runs 3 hours 30 minutes on a similar route. Cornelia Luxury Yacht Cruiser rents its Cranchi Endurance 39 for a three-hour guided trip. So the 4-hour charter adds 30 to 60 minutes, and the 7-hour charter doubles the 3.5-hour trip.
A fixed length is the other difference. The 4-hour and 7-hour listings show one length each. The private yacht with unlimited drinks shows 2 to 6 hours. The Ayia Napa Sea Ray charter shows 3 to 8 hours.
Charter sites price by the hour. Rent Yachts in Cyprus states no minimum or maximum. The Cornelia page offers private hire hourly or daily, so a Protaras yacht charter fits the day you plan.
Can a Protaras yacht charter include fishing?
Yes. GetYourGuide lists a private boat tour from Protaras with fishing in its title. It also lists a separate Gold Coast fishing tour of at least 4 hours. Both are private group trips.
The private boat tour runs 2 to 4 hours from Protaras to Famagusta and the Blue Lagoon. Guests swim for half an hour in the clear water of the lagoon and see the Famagusta ghost town. The summary names the swim and the view, so ask the operator which fishing gear the booking covers.
The Gold Coast fishing tour is built around the gear. The listing says the trip lasts at least 4 hours and can be extended. Guests learn to use the fishing gear with the captain and the crew, then swim with turtles. Pickup is available, and the boat is wheelchair accessible.
A deep-sea fishing trip sold by TUI shows the fish calendar. Tuna run from the start of June to mid-August, and mackerel run from mid-August to the end of October. The trip lasts 4 to 8 hours in the morning, and the fishermen teach trolling and hook-and-line angling. TUI says catches are not guaranteed.
Gear is a question for the owner. A Click&Boat day charter from Paralimni Marina says fishing equipment can be provided by the owner. Luxury Time Charters lists fishing beside its sunset, wedding and half-day cruises at Ayia Napa Harbour and Golden Coast Harbour. Ask about rods, bait and the fishing stop before you book a Protaras yacht charter for fishing.
Which Protaras yacht charter sails to Blue Lagoon and Turtle Bay?
The semi-private yacht tour from Protaras is the Protaras yacht charter for Turtle Bay and the Blue Lagoon. It also passes the sea caves and lasts 4 to 5 hours. A second route, the 6-hour VIP cruise from Ayia Napa Marina, stops at the Blue Lagoon too.
GetYourGuide rates this Protaras yacht charter 4.7 out of 5 from 123 reviews. It runs as a small group, with pickup and free cancellation on the listing. The booking cut-off is 10 hours before the start. The tour admits adults only, and the page bars ages 17 and younger.
easyJet Experiences sells a semi-private cruise that names the same three stops. Its route runs from Green Bay to Turtle Bay, the sea caves and the Blue Lagoon. It lasts the same 4 to 5 hours. Each yacht holds 8 to 10 guests. One booking runs as a single yacht or as two or three yachts sailing together.
Turtle Bay carries a second name on charter listings. A private boat trip on Click&Boat titles one stop Cavo Maris Bay / Turtle Bay. That trip swims at the Blue Lagoon by Cape Greco first and at this bay last.
The VIP cruise leaves Ayia Napa Marina on a high-speed luxury yacht. It passes the Pirate Caves, the Love Bridge and Cape Greco. It then stops to swim and snorkel in the Blue Lagoon. GetYourGuide flags the trip as one that can sell out.
Tickets split by age: adults from 13, children from 4 to 12, and infants aged 3 and younger. The listing offers pickup and free cancellation. Booking closes 7 hours before departure.
Can you book a Protaras yacht charter at sunset?
Yes. GetYourGuide lists three sunset yachts: a slide yacht from Protaras Pier, a VIP cruise and a private Azimut 62. A sunset Protaras yacht charter lasts 3.5 to 5 hours on the slide yacht and 4 hours on the others.
The slide yacht holds a 4.7 rating from 267 reviews. It offers pickup and free cancellation. GetYourGuide shows the VIP cruise with 5 stars from 6 reviews. Its cut-off is 10 hours before the start. Both list a child band of 4 to 12 and an infant band that ends at 3.
The Azimut 62 is a private yacht, so only your own group boards. The tour lasts 4 hours. The booking form lists participants of age 99 and younger, so it sets no lower age limit.
A smaller-group option comes from easyJet Experiences. Its semi-private sunset cruise sails from Green Bay and lasts 4 to 5 hours. The limit is 8 to 10 guests on each yacht. Guests swim as the sun goes down. The cruise is adults only. A guest who cancels 24 hours ahead gets a full refund.
A private sunset Protaras yacht charter on Click&Boat confirms the departure time closer to the date. The operator waits to learn the sunset time. The skipper visits Fig Tree Bay, Konnos Bay, the Love Bridge and the Blue Lagoon first. The yacht then turns back as the sun starts to set. Guests watch it on the way to Paralimni Marina.
Our Ayia Napa sunset cruise page lists the sunset time for each month. Match the month to the yacht before you book.
How do food, drinks and BBQ work on a Protaras yacht charter?
Food and drinks depend on the listing. The semi-private yacht tour serves an open bar and fruit platters. The VIP cruise serves a Cypriot buffet. The sunset slide yacht lists a traditional meal with BBQ and one drink.
The 6-hour Ayia Napa yacht cruise serves lunch on board, says easyJet Experiences. The menu varies, with drinks to suit each guest. GetYourGuide calls the meal on that route a Cypriot buffet.
The sunset slide yacht puts the BBQ and one drink in its title. The title counts both as part of the trip, so a Protaras yacht charter on this boat includes a meal.
Private boats bring their own extras. The Click&Boat private yacht from Ayia Napa and Protaras includes drinks, beers and fresh seasonal fruit. The Cornelia yacht from Protaras serves two champagnes, snacks, soft drinks and a fruit platter. Coffee, herbal tea and water come too.
Musement sells a private Protaras yacht charter from Protaras Harbour. It serves fruit with cheese, a glass of white wine and soft drinks.
The private sunset charter from Protaras lists a fully stocked bar. The YachtOn sunset trip from Ayia Napa serves locally branded drinks from an open bar. Ask the owner about a BBQ when you plan a Protaras yacht charter for a group.
What can you do on board a Protaras yacht charter?
Guests swim, snorkel, slide, sunbathe and listen to music. The sunset slide yacht has a huge slide. The private Click&Boat yacht carries snorkelling gear and a paddle board. The YachtOn sunset trip adds a live DJ at anchor.
Swim stops shape the day. The private sunset charter lists long swim stops at the Blue Lagoon and Cavo Maris Bay. The 6-hour yacht cruise from Ayia Napa lists swim and snorkel stops at the Blue Lagoon and Konnos Bay.
On the sunset Protaras yacht charter from Protaras Pier, guests use a huge slide. The listing adds snorkelling stops along the coast.
A private Protaras yacht charter on Click&Boat lists snorkelling equipment and a paddle board. The listing also lets guests play their own music and relax in the sun.
Musement sells the YachtOn trip as an adults-only sunset sail with 8 to 10 guests. Two or three yachts anchor together at the Blue Lagoon for a floating mini festival with a live DJ set.
The Musement private charter from Protaras Harbour sets a half-hour swim stop at Cape Greco. Guests swim, snorkel or relax on deck.
The private sunset charter adds sightseeing. It cruises into the caves under the cliffs of Cape Greco. It also passes the Agioi Anargyroi chapel on the cliff top.
Which Protaras yacht charter suits a couple, a family or a party?
A couple suits a small motor yacht. A family suits a private yacht with its own route and swim stops. A party suits an event yacht with room for a crowd, on a Protaras yacht charter.
A couple’s Protaras yacht charter starts small. Luxury Time Charters, an east-coast yacht company, lists a romantic trip for two among its cruises. Its menu also names proposals. The operator of the Cornelia names a couples’ getaway, a honeymoon present and a wedding photo shoot as fits.
A family wants room and its own pace. Rent Yachts in Cyprus says a private yacht gives a group its own route and schedule. The group also picks its own music and swim stops. A public tour follows one fixed plan.
Cornelia also lists family charters among its services. A family that prefers a shared boat books a seat on a slide yacht instead.
A party’s Protaras yacht charter needs space. Luxury Time Charters adds hen and bachelor parties, birthdays, weddings and corporate events to its menu. The Cornelia operator names bachelorette parties, hen’s parties and small birthday parties for its Cranchi.
Large parties need an event deck. The Protaras page of Rent Yachts in Cyprus shows an event yacht sold for weddings, parties and corporate events. It also shows a sailing catamaran sold for celebrations and special occasions. A third boat, Anamnisis, is described as an event yacht designed for large groups.
What group size can a Protaras yacht charter carry?
A private Protaras yacht charter on GetYourGuide carries 6 to 16 guests. One private boat trip takes up to 50. Event yachts from other companies take up to 25, 35 and 150 guests.
Each private listing on GetYourGuide states a group cap and counts one whole group, not one seat. The caps for a Protaras yacht charter run as follows:
- The licence-free self-drive boat takes up to 6 guests.
- The 4-hour and 7-hour captain charters take up to 10 guests.
- The private yacht with unlimited drinks takes up to 11 guests.
- The private fishing boat takes up to 15 guests.
- The Ayia Napa captain charter with drinks takes up to 16 guests.
- The 3.5-hour private Blue Lagoon boat trip takes up to 50 guests.
Click&Boat lists cruises from Protaras Harbour for groups of up to 31 people and up to 49 people. It also lists a private speedboat trip for up to 9 people.
Rent Yachts in Cyprus puts the limit in each yacht’s name on its Protaras fleet page. Size a Protaras yacht charter by that count. A motor boat takes up to 8 guests, and a second one takes up to 10. The Sea Ray 420 takes up to 13.
The Azimut 46 takes up to 16. The Ferretti 592 takes up to 25, and the Ferretti 67 takes up to 35. An event yacht takes up to 150.
Click&Boat answers a different question, the number of people who can sleep on board. A Protaras boat averages 2 berths, and the largest has 6. A group of 12 needs a cap of 13 or more, such as the Sea Ray 420.
Which months and sea conditions suit a Protaras yacht charter?
Late spring to autumn suits a Protaras yacht charter. Wikipedia puts the average sea above 20°C in the seven months that end in November. Larnaca’s sea reaches 27°C in August and September.
Wikipedia’s table for Larnaca, the nearest city with figures, gives the sea at 24°C in June and 26°C in July. It gives 27°C in August and September, 25°C in October and 22°C in November. The sea cools to 19°C in December and 17°C in February and March.
April reads 18°C, so a spring Protaras yacht charter means cooler swim stops. A second table covers Larnaca airport and cites the Cyprus Meteorological Service. August records 0.4 mm of rain and 0.1 rain day of 1 mm or more. December records 94.5 mm and 8 rain days.
October has 2.1 rain days and November has 4.7. Warmth on deck follows the same curve. The mean daily high is 30.3°C in June, 32.7°C in August and 28.1°C in October. Summer brings almost cloudless skies.
Winds around Cyprus are light to moderate and vary in direction, Wikipedia says. Gales are infrequent and confined mainly to exposed coasts and high ground. Winter differs. From November to mid-March, small depressions cross the island. Each brings a spell of disturbed weather that lasts a day or so.
The Cyprus Department of Meteorology issues a sea-area forecast. It has its own line for the east coast, where a Protaras yacht charter sails. The line gives wind force on the Beaufort scale and the sea state in words.
One July forecast read force 3 at night and force 3 to 4 in the morning. The afternoon read force 4. The sea stayed smooth to slight at 27°C.
The Beaufort scale turns those numbers into a sea you can picture. Force 3 is a gentle breeze of 7 to 10 knots with large wavelets.
Force 4 is a moderate breeze of 11 to 16 knots with small waves and fairly frequent white horses. Force 5 is a fresh breeze of 17 to 21 knots with more white horses and a chance of spray.
Click&Boat names April to November as the window to rent a boat in Protaras, with almost no rain. It advises avoiding July and August for fewer crowds, because Protaras is a favourite holiday spot for locals.
Do you need a licence for a Protaras yacht charter?
No. A captained Protaras yacht charter asks nothing of the guests, because the skipper holds the licence and sails the boat. Only a bareboat charter, where you skipper yourself, asks for a certificate that fits the boat’s type and length.
For a captained Protaras yacht charter, Rent Yachts in Cyprus says no licence is needed. Every private yacht comes with a professional captain and crew. Click&Boat describes skippers as licensed professionals who handle the sailing, the docking and the anchoring.
Bareboat means a boat with no crew and no skipper. A Limassol law firm summarises a Deputy Ministry of Shipping circular on this case. The skipper must hold a certificate that proves maritime training. The certificate fits the type and length of the vessel. The skipper cannot belong to the chartering company.
The same summary adds rules for a bareboat Protaras yacht charter. Boats leave from marinas, berthing places, fishing shelters or ports. The Marine Police Station receives a written departure note before each sailing. The boat and the chartering company both carry insurance for the death or injury of passengers.
Protaras also has a licence-free self-drive option. Its GetYourGuide listing runs 6 hours, lists a 50 hp engine and includes the fuel. A guest on Click&Boat rented a self-drive family boat in Protaras. The guest wrote that the operator gave clear guidance on routes and on using the boat before the start.
A Cyprus licence guide on Dom.com.cy says an ICC makes it much easier to charter a motor yacht. ICC stands for International Certificate of Competence. The guide sets a learner’s licence from age 17 and a full licence from age 18. Ask the operator which papers it wants before you book.
How do you book and cancel a Protaras yacht charter?
Book a Protaras yacht charter online on GetYourGuide, or ask a charter company by WhatsApp, phone or web form. GetYourGuide lists free cancellation on each yacht here. Where a cut-off shows, booking closes 2 to 10 hours before sailing.
The cut-off differs from boat to boat, so read it before you plan the day:
- The Lux-Yacht with the big slide closes 2 hours before sailing.
- The private catamaran cruises close 4 hours before.
- The Blue Lagoon VIP cruise closes 7 hours before.
- The private yacht with unlimited drinks, the Turtle Bay yacht tour, the fishing trip and the captained charters close 10 hours before.
A 3-hour boat trip from Protaras takes bookings up to 30 minutes before sailing. A yacht needs more notice, so book a Protaras yacht charter the day before.
Charter sites set their own refund windows:
- Musement, private charter cruise from Protaras Harbour: a 100% refund up to 24 hours before.
- Click&Boat, Sea Ray 250 SDX from Protaras Harbour: a full refund 24 hours or more before the start, without service fees and commission.
- Sailo, Sea Ray 375: a full refund 3 days or more before, and none at 2 days or less.
- Click&Boat, Ferretti 592 from Ayia Napa: a 70% refund up to 10 days before.
- SamBoat, the Aretousa in Protaras: no refund inside 2 weeks of departure, and none for a no-show.
Weather rules sit in the same terms. On Sailo, the captain has the final say on the route and the weather. Rent Yachts in Cyprus reschedules or refunds a trip in unsafe weather. SamBoat offers a full refund or, where possible, a new date.
A direct Protaras yacht charter starts with a request. Rent Yachts in Cyprus takes WhatsApp, phone and form requests and confirms availability within minutes. Click&Boat books without waiting for the owner. Sailo and SamBoat both ask guests to reach the harbour 15 minutes before departure.
SamBoat holds a private charter only once the payment is complete. Its request listings charge you only if the owner accepts the request.
What do you bring on a Protaras yacht charter?
Bring comfortable clothes for the season, a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses and a swimsuit. Add a jacket or windbreaker for the sea air. Check the listing for towels and snorkel gear before you pack them.
Sailo, a charter site, prints this packing advice on the listing page of the Sea Ray 375. It warns that the air out on the water can be 10 degrees cooler. That is why it adds the jacket. It also asks guests to agree with the captain which food and drinks they bring.
Boat rules decide the rest. The Sailo listing for the Sea Ray 375 sets these:
- It is a shoes-off boat, so wear footwear that comes off fast.
- Guests can bring any alcohol except red wine.
- Hookahs and drugs are banned on board.
Leave the heavy kit at home. That Sea Ray 375 carries snorkelling equipment, water toys, towels, Wi-Fi, a music system and a coffee machine. A Click&Boat listing for a Ferretti 592 names towels and snorkelling equipment too. A short call to the operator settles what your Protaras yacht charter supplies.
Which other Protaras boat trips sit beside a Protaras yacht charter?
Group boats sit beside a Protaras yacht charter on GetYourGuide. A 32-metre Napa king boat sails for 3 hours. A morning catamaran sails for 4.5 to 5.5 hours, and a sunset cruise to Turtle Cove sails for 3 hours.
The Napa king boat sails from Protaras with swim stops at Cape Greco Lagoon and Turtle Cove. GetYourGuide marks the trip as wheelchair accessible.

What happens if you arrive late or change the booking?
The SamBoat terms for the Aretousa accept no liability for a late arrival. They accept none for arrival at the wrong departure point. The owner also reserves the right to refuse changes to the original charter details.
Is there a bathroom on a yacht?
The Sailo listing for the Sea Ray 375 shows 1 bathroom and no shower. Look for the bathroom line on the listing of the yacht you choose.
