Ayia Napa Yacht Charter: Captained Yachts, Luxury Catamarans, Cape Greco Routes and Private Days

An Ayia Napa yacht charter hires a whole boat and captain to one group on the east coast of Cyprus. Find more trip ideas on Greece Tours. Sellers range from GetYourGuide and Viator gigs to booking agents, charter companies and marketplaces. Below we compare the companies, boats, start points, Cape Greco routes, crews, extras and booking terms.

What is an Ayia Napa yacht charter?

You hire a whole boat, with its captain, for your own group. A shared cruise sells separate seats instead. Operators sail an Ayia Napa yacht charter from the east coast of Cyprus, near Cape Greco. The group sets the pace of the day.

Love Ayia Napa, a booking agent, sells private boat trips and charters from Ayia Napa, Protaras and Larnaca. Its page promises the whole boat to yourself and control of your day.

Wikipedia calls Ayia Napa a tourist resort on the southern coast of Cyprus, at its far eastern end. It places the town near Cape Greco and about 12 kilometres from Protaras. A boat on an Ayia Napa yacht charter starts close to both.

The companies behind an Ayia Napa yacht charter report their own volumes. Rent Yachts in Cyprus says it has completed over 1,200 private charters. DanEri Yachts counts 242 cruises completed in Cyprus. These are the operators’ own counts.

Wikipedia lists what sets the cost of a charter. The factors are yacht size, age, builder, crew count, season and cruising region. The sections below take them one at a time.

Our Cyprus tours page covers the island’s day trips, wine routes and city visits. This page follows the Ayia Napa yacht charter, from the boat to the booking.

Which Ayia Napa yacht charter options can you book?

Book an Ayia Napa yacht charter through a GetYourGuide gig, a Viator card, an agent, a company or a marketplace. The gigs and companies below name their boats and their start points, so you can compare them side by side.

  • Private gigs on GetYourGuide: a private yacht trip with unlimited drinks; the sunset tour on a private Azimut 62; Ayia Napa: Private Fishing Cruise with Snacks & Gear. The captained Sea Ray charter and the private catamaran cruise have their own sections.
  • Shared VIP yachts on GetYourGuide: From Ayia Napa: Blue Lagoon VIP Cruise with Snorkeling; Sunset VIP Cruise from Ayia Napa.
  • Booking agent: Love Ayia Napa lists every private boat for both day and sunset cruises.
  • Blue Escape Yachts: a fleet of Sea Ray and Azimut yachts that sails from Ayia Napa Marina and Protaras harbour.
  • Captain Vasilis: a Sea Ray 375 sold as a private boat rental in Ayia Napa.
  • Azure Yacht Club: three named yachts in its quote form, the Ruby (Gobby 357), the Melina (Sea Ray Sundancer 455) and the Regina (Sea Ray Supersport 630).
  • DanEri Yachts: a luxury catamaran from Ayia Napa Marina, sold as shared cruises and as private cruises.
  • Rent Yachts in Cyprus: boats for six start areas, with Ayia Napa among them.
  • Luxury Time Charters: heads its page Luxury Yacht Hire in Ayia Napa.
  • BednBlue: a marketplace that offers verified boats for Ayia Napa and lets you contact the owner or the site.

GetYourGuide tags each private Ayia Napa yacht charter with a Private group label. The two VIP yachts carry no such label, so they sell seats rather than the whole boat.

BednBlue says you can hire a yacht in Ayia Napa for a day, a weekend or a party. Pick the format first, then the seller of your Ayia Napa yacht charter.

The Viator cards at the end of the types section add four more boats. Two are charters, a sailing yacht and a private catamaran. Two are catamaran cruises.

Where does an Ayia Napa yacht charter depart?

An Ayia Napa yacht charter departs from Ayia Napa Marina or Ayia Napa Harbour. Other operators also sail from Protaras harbour. Read the start point on each listing, because the marina and the harbour carry different names.

The marina’s own website lists 360 berths for yachts up to 110 metres. Its finger-style berths suit yachts up to 30 metres, and floating docks give comfortable access in all weather. A 7-metre deep basin and a wave-absorbing breakwater calm the water.

The site adds a yacht club, a crew lounge and a Commercial Village. The village holds a convenience store, shops and dining steps from the berths.

Blue Escape Yachts calls the marina the New Harbor. Its FAQ places free parking on site and the boat a 2-minute walk away. DanEri Yachts also offers free parking and says cars and taxis reach the marina from Ayia Napa and Protaras.

The harbour is the second start point for an Ayia Napa yacht charter. A GetYourGuide private fishing gig sails from Ayia Napa Harbour, and a Viator catamaran cruise names it too. Azure Yacht Club lists Ayia Napa Harbor in its booking form.

Two GetYourGuide gigs name Ayia Napa Marina as the start: the captained yacht charter and the Blue Lagoon VIP cruise.

Blue Escape Yachts also sails from Protaras harbour and arranges hotel pickup on request. Our Protaras yacht charter page covers the departures on the Protaras side. Pick the start point closest to your hotel before you book an Ayia Napa yacht charter.

Which yacht types suit an Ayia Napa yacht charter?

Motor yachts, bowrider speedboats and catamarans suit an Ayia Napa yacht charter. Rent Yachts in Cyprus lists 27 boats for Ayia Napa. Its listing titles state guest limits from 8 to 25.

BednBlue calls motor yachts the type for guests who want to reach more than one place in a trip. It cites their speed. On Rent Yachts in Cyprus, the Sea Ray 630 holds up to 24 guests. The Gobbi 375 holds up to 10.

Blue Escape Yachts sets its Azimut 62 at 14 guests and adds air conditioning throughout.

Smaller boats start at the low end. A Sea Ray SD 28 sport deck boat takes up to 8 guests. A ProRip X10.5 takes 10, and a Crownline bowrider speedboat takes up to 11.

Catamarans come as sailing and power boats. Rent Yachts in Cyprus lists Lagoon 40 and Lagoon 45 as sailing catamarans for up to 20 guests each. It also lists the AG Queen as a power catamaran. The 21-metre Napa Blue is a power catamaran with a jacuzzi.

Wikipedia says catamarans have gained popularity in the last decade for their large capacity and fuel efficiency. Large capacity matters for a group that books an Ayia Napa yacht charter together.

Sailing yachts sit on the Protaras side. The sail-boat list of Rent Yachts in Cyprus names no Ayia Napa boat. It places the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 409 and the wooden San Antonio II in Protaras.

Match the boat to the group before you pick the seller. An Ayia Napa yacht charter for 8 guests needs a different boat from one for 24. The Viator cards below show a Sun Odyssey 409 charter, a private catamaran cruise and two catamaran cruises.

What does the private Ayia Napa yacht charter with a captain and drinks include?

The gig gives one group a Sea Ray SLX 400, a captain, a hostess and drinks. The summary adds swim stops, snorkelling and deck time. It names no drinks, so read the booking page before you pay.

Sea Ray is an American builder inside the Brunswick Boat Group, says Wikipedia. It names Sea Ray the first maker to use fibreglass in pleasure boats. Sea Ray also pioneered the moulded-in swim platform. On an Ayia Napa yacht charter, that platform is the guests’ door to the sea.

Blue Escape Yachts, an operator at Ayia Napa Marina, lists the same model in its Ayia Napa yacht charter fleet. It calls the SLX 400 a 13-metre sport yacht for up to 16 people with twin Mercury V8 engines. It also calls it the newest and largest bowrider in the area.

The Blue Escape page lists a bow lounge and a large swim platform on deck. Below deck sit a private sleeping cabin, a bathroom and a small seating area. Rent Yachts in Cyprus adds sunbathing areas and comfortable seating for the same model.

Rent Yachts in Cyprus also prints the drinks for its SLX 400. They are soft drinks and water, sparkling wine or prosecco, and local beer. The same list names snorkel masks, towels, an underwater scooter, seasonal fruit and steward service. Ask the gig operator for its own list, because the gig page names none.

What does the luxury catamaran Ayia Napa yacht charter offer?

The luxury catamaran gig is a private cruise for one group of up to 20 guests. GetYourGuide lets you pick a daytime or a sunset sail of 4 to 7 hours. The listing carries free cancellation and the New activity label.

The summary promises crystal-clear water and relaxing moments on deck. The gig has no reviews yet, so this catamaran Ayia Napa yacht charter rests on its summary alone. Compare it with the catamarans that other sellers list for the same coast.

Rent Yachts in Cyprus offers a Lagoon 45 sailing catamaran for an Ayia Napa yacht charter. It measures 14 metres long and 7.9 metres wide, with four cabins that each have a private toilet. A flybridge gives panoramic views, and the charter runs 5 hours.

The same page prints a menu. It offers shrimp pasta or rice with feta, mussels in turmeric sauce with ouzo, and chicken breast with oranges. Children get nuggets or pasta. Prosecco, local beer and a stand-up paddleboard sit on the inclusion list.

A bigger catamaran also offers an Ayia Napa yacht charter. The Napa Blue has an 8-metre beam and four cabins, says Rent Yachts in Cyprus. It bars outside drinks, because the boat serves them. Azure Yacht Club sets a 5-hour minimum and a cap of 25 persons. It adds a flybridge, with paddle board and fishing gear on request.

DanEri Yachts names the catamaran the boat of choice for a full day. It sets that against a motor yacht built for a fast lap of the coast. It keeps its own catamaran small on purpose. That keeps the deck roomy, the swim stops unhurried and the crew attentive on an Ayia Napa yacht charter.

How does an Ayia Napa yacht charter sail to Cape Greco and the sea caves?

The yacht leaves Ayia Napa Marina and runs east along the coast to Cape Greco. The sea caves sit at the waterline there. It then anchors at the Blue Lagoon and Konnos Bay. The captain sets the order by the wind.

Blue Escape Yachts sets out its route in four steps:

  • Ayia Napa Marina, the start.
  • The Cape Greco sea caves, passed along the national park coast.
  • The Blue Lagoon, the main anchor stop.
  • Konnos Bay, a second swim stop, then back to the marina.

The headland has Konnos Bay on one side and the Blue Lagoon on the other, says Blue Escape. So one Ayia Napa yacht charter holds the cliffs and two swims. Rent Yachts in Cyprus lists the same stops for its SLX 400, plus Turtle Bay.

DanEri Yachts explains how its boat meets the caves. They are low limestone tunnels and chambers, too low and shallow for a catamaran to enter. The boat anchors close by, and guests swim in from the deck. Ask your skipper how close your Ayia Napa yacht charter goes.

Next to the cliff the sea is 5 to 8 metres deep, says DanEri. Bream and damselfish hang under the hull. The rock at the waterline is sharp, so swim shoes help.

Cape Greco has no shop, no toilets ashore and no shade on the rocks, DanEri adds. Everything you need stays on the boat. Our Cape Greco tour page follows the trails and the rock arches above the caves.

Luxury Time Charters sells a longer private trip from Ayia Napa old harbour. Its program names these views from the boat: Famagusta’s ghost town, the Protaras coast, Cape Greco and the Love Bridge. The Blue Lagoon and Konnos Bay are its swimming stops. The captain adapts the itinerary to your wishes.

Which bays can an Ayia Napa yacht charter anchor in?

Operators name seven stops: the Blue Lagoon, Konnos Bay, Fig Tree Bay, Green Bay, Kalamies, Kapparis and Pernera. Each gives a swim or a snorkel. The captain adapts the stops to the wind and the sea.

Blue Escape Yachts describes the Blue Lagoon as a cove sheltered by low limestone cliffs. Only a boat or a long coastal walk reaches it. The seabed is rocky and the water exceptionally clear, which suits snorkelling. An Ayia Napa yacht charter anchors there as a regular stop.

Konnos Bay is a small cove between Ayia Napa and Protaras. Its seabed is sandy, and it has natural shelter from the prevailing winds. Blue Escape adds a sandy beach for lunch ashore. When the sea is choppy, it moves the route toward protected coves such as Konnos Bay.

Fig Tree Bay takes its name from an ancient fig tree on the cliff, says Blue Escape. The water is clear and shallow over sand. Its charters anchor offshore there for a swim or a beach lunch.

Luxury Time Charters adds more stops to its private trips from Ayia Napa old harbour:

  • Kalamies Beach: swimming and snorkelling.
  • Kapparis Beach: swimming and snorkelling.
  • Green Bay: snorkelling and paddleboarding.
  • Pernera Beach: swimming, sunbathing and water sports.

Makronissos Beach and Sunrise Beach appear on its programs as views from the boat. So a bay on the coast is not always a swim stop. Check the program of your Ayia Napa yacht charter before you pack.

Buoys mark the swimmers’ zones. A Cyprus Mail report on Protaras quotes the lifeguards. Speedboat drivers are not allowed to pass the buoys into a swimmers’ area. Ask your skipper which rule covers your Ayia Napa yacht charter.

A Paralimni beach inspector adds that speedboats stay at least 100 metres from the coastline. He defines a speedboat as a vessel under 15 metres that goes faster than 15 knots.

Which Ayia Napa yacht charter hosts a party or an event?

A private boat hosts a party or an event, because the whole deck belongs to your group. Operators in town name birthdays, hen and stag parties, proposals, weddings and company days. Each one fits an Ayia Napa yacht charter.

Love Ayia Napa lists weddings, birthdays, stag parties and hen parties for a private Ayia Napa yacht charter. It adds that every boat carries a music system and life vests, so the group can set its own vibe.

Captain Vasilis sells its Sea Ray 375 for bachelor and bachelorette parties. Its home page also lists sunset proposals, anniversary surprises, photo shoots, engagements and corporate gatherings. The party option promises music and drinks under the sun.

Luxury Time Charters gives each occasion its own page. Its wedding page describes a family cruise along the coast after the ceremony. The couple can add a swim. Its proposal page promises privacy and says the crew pick the spot.

The extras page of the same company names a saxophone, a violin, balloons and drone filming. Its company-day page calls a yacht a way to thank customers, colleagues and partners.

DanEri Yachts keeps each shared cruise to 20 guests and says it is not a crowded party boat. It sells the private version for birthdays, anniversaries, proposals, hen and stag parties and corporate days. The group gets its own music, menu and timing, with no strangers on deck.

For a ticketed boat party with a DJ, read our Ayia Napa sunset cruise guide. A private Ayia Napa yacht charter suits a group that wants the deck to itself.

Who crews an Ayia Napa yacht charter?

Operators in town send a licensed captain with the boat, and larger yachts add a hostess or a steward. Wikipedia lists a captain, a chef, a deckhand and a hostess as the crew of a crewed charter.

Wikipedia separates two set-ups. A skippered charter brings a professional skipper and no other crew. A crewed charter adds staff such as chefs, engineers, deckhands and stewards. An Ayia Napa yacht charter with a captain alone is the first kind.

Love Ayia Napa says every Ayia Napa yacht charter on its site includes a licensed, experienced captain. Its boats are insured and licensed. Luxury Time Charters says its captains and crew are fully qualified and licensed. Its team page lists a head captain, captains and stewards.

Blue Escape Yachts puts a captain and a hostess on every charter. Its captain has over ten years of professional experience at sea and speaks English and Arabic. The hostess looks after service on board, and the captain gives a short safety briefing before departure.

Captain Vasilis words the crew line boat by boat. Its 9-metre fishing and cruising boat names one local Cypriot captain. Its Sea Ray 375 names a captain and crew.

On the DanEri catamaran, guests thank the cook and the hostess by role, and one guest counted three crew. DanEri’s guide advises a little cash for the bar and for tipping the crew. Ask who works the deck before you confirm an Ayia Napa yacht charter.

How does a day charter differ from a half-day Ayia Napa yacht charter?

Length sets the route. On one Sea Ray 375, 3 hours covers the Ayia Napa coast. Five hours adds the Blue Lagoon, and eight hours adds a Famagusta view. That ladder shows how an Ayia Napa yacht charter grows from a half-day into a full day.

Captain Vasilis prints this ladder for its Sea Ray 375:

  • 3 hours: the Ayia Napa coast and a swim stop.
  • 4 hours: anchorages at swim spots.
  • 5 hours: an extended run to the Blue Lagoon and Turtle Bay.
  • 6 hours: the Ayia Napa and Protaras coast.
  • 8 hours: the full coast and a view of the Famagusta ghost town.

The 9-metre boat of the same operator runs a shorter ladder. Two hours covers the coastline, 3 hours adds the Blue Lagoon, and 4 hours adds Turtle Bay.

DanEri Yachts offers its Ayia Napa yacht charter in three private forms: morning, afternoon or full day. The afternoon sail serves dinner on board with sunset views. The full-day sail adds swimming, snorkelling and a feast.

Timing matters as much as length. DanEri says the Blue Lagoon is busiest from about 10am to 3pm in high summer. A half-day that starts early or late avoids that window. A private Ayia Napa yacht charter can reach the lagoon before the day boats arrive.

Check the shortest booking before you choose a length. Blue Escape Yachts sets a 3-hour minimum. The Sundancer 320 needs 4 hours, and the Sunsport 63 needs 2. It also sells sunset cruises, besides half-day and full-day ones.

Which months and winds suit an Ayia Napa yacht charter?

The water stays warm for swimming from late spring to November. June, September and early October bring thinner crowds than July and August. Wind at Marina Ayia Napa averages only 6 knots across the year. That light breeze suits an Ayia Napa yacht charter.

Blue Escape Yachts runs its Ayia Napa yacht charter season from March to November and closes for the winter. It calls the stretch from the fifth month to October its peak, with reliably calm conditions. It calls March, April and November quieter. DanEri Yachts names July and August as the peak for crowds.

The Ayia Napa sea reaches 28.1°C in August, the warmest month, says seatemperature.org. February is the coldest month at 16.9°C, and it falls inside the closed winter window. Late October still sits near 25°C.

Windfinder lists an annual average of 6 knots at Marina Ayia Napa, with gusts of 10 knots. The station behind the figure no longer reports, so read it as an average, not a forecast. Wikipedia puts 4 to 6 knots at Beaufort force 2, a light breeze with small wavelets that do not break.

Blue Escape Yachts reschedules or refunds a booking when the wind passes force 6. Force 6 is a strong breeze of 22 to 27 knots. Large waves begin to form there, and white foam crests spread across the sea. Wikipedia adds that US forecasters issue small craft advisories at force 6 or 7.

The captain makes the final call on the morning of the charter, says Blue Escape. The same page says its captain knows which bays stay sheltered when the wind picks up. Pick a month inside the season for your Ayia Napa yacht charter, and the captain picks the bay.

What does an Ayia Napa yacht charter include and leave out?

DanEri Yachts names four items inside a headline rate: the boat, a licensed skipper, fuel and safety gear. For an Ayia Napa yacht charter, food, unlimited drinks, photos, transfers and decorations come as extras. Ask each operator for its full list before you pay.

Snorkel gear, water or a welcome drink are bonuses that a boat can add, says the same price guide. It lists what stays outside: real food, unlimited drinks, and the gear and crew for swimming, snorkelling and paddleboarding. Catering is quoted per head. A DJ or a longer route is added afterwards.

Blue Escape Yachts states a fixed list for its charters. It names a professional captain, fuel for the agreed route, life jackets, safety equipment and a safety briefing. Its FAQ adds these items:

  • Snorkelling equipment for all guests.
  • One sea scooter, one fruit platter and a fresh towel for every guest.
  • Water, soft drinks, 2 bottles of champagne and 20 beers.

Extras sit on top of that list. The yacht pages of Blue Escape Yachts offer a Seabob F9S underwater scooter, flowers, a cake and a sushi platter. They also list decorations for a birthday, a wedding or a bachelor party. Drinks beyond the free stock are bought for you and charged at cost after the trip.

Other Ayia Napa yacht charter operators publish their own sets. Captain Vasilis lists fuel, a sea scooter and a SUP board for its Sea Ray 375. For its 9 m Jeanneau it lists snorkelling gear and tuna fishing equipment.

Azure Yacht Club serves a selection of beverages and snacks. Its Sea Ray Sundancer 455 page offers fishing equipment on request. Love Ayia Napa says every boat it sells carries life vests and a music system. Compare three of these lists side by side before you pick an Ayia Napa yacht charter.

DanEri Yachts offers one test question: does the price include fuel, food, all drinks, water-sports equipment and crew? Its guide asks for an all-in figure for your group size, not the hourly rate for the boat. On an all-inclusive catamaran, it adds, the food, the drinks and the crew sit inside the price.

How do you book, pay a deposit for and cancel an Ayia Napa yacht charter?

A 20% deposit holds the date at Blue Escape Yachts, and the rest is due before sailing. It refunds a cancellation in full with 3 or more days of notice. Other operators set their own terms for an Ayia Napa yacht charter, so read them first.

Booking routes for an Ayia Napa yacht charter differ by operator. Captain Vasilis asks you to pick a date, then contacts you to confirm availability. Azure Yacht Club sends a quote after you fill in a form that names the yacht and the hire length.

Blue Escape Yachts shows live availability and confirms a booking once your payment is in.

Love Ayia Napa takes private boat charters on a request basis. A request is not a booking until its confirmation email arrives. With a fixed date and time, or a last-minute plan, it asks you to email first and check availability.

Blue Escape Yachts asks the booker to be 18 or older. It splits the payment in two. The 20% deposit comes first. The other 80% follows through a secure payment link it emails you, or on site at the marina. You can also pay in full at checkout.

Payment methods differ too. Blue Escape Yachts takes major cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Revolut, Klarna and cryptocurrency, billed in euros. Love Ayia Napa takes cards through Stripe and PayPal, and adds Klarna and Google Pay.

Cancellation terms for an Ayia Napa yacht charter differ more than the deposit does:

  • Blue Escape Yachts: a full refund, deposit included, when you cancel 3 or more days before the start. Inside 3 days the booking is not refundable. The clock runs on Cyprus local time.
  • Love Ayia Napa: a charter payment is not refundable unless the boat does not sail. It then reschedules first, and refunds or issues a credit note if the new date does not suit.
  • Azure Yacht Club: tickets and no-shows are not refunded. Its terms also set a withdrawal right of 5 days, used by a written statement such as an email.

Plans can change after booking. Love Ayia Napa moves the sailing day or time at no extra fee, subject to availability. When severe weather stops a sailing, Azure Yacht Club lets guests pick a refund in full or another date. Blue Escape Yachts offers a free reschedule or 100% back.

Book earlier in peak season. Blue Escape Yachts advises 2 to 4 weeks ahead, above all for weekends and sunset slots. In March, April and November it takes bookings 24 to 48 hours ahead, weather permitting. Send your dates early for an Ayia Napa yacht charter.

What do you wear and bring on an Ayia Napa yacht charter?

Wear swimwear under a light cover-up. Pack sunscreen, a towel, sunglasses and a camera, says DanEri Yachts. For an Ayia Napa yacht charter, add a hat and a playlist.

Sun care comes first on an Ayia Napa yacht charter. The NHS asks for sunscreen of at least factor 30 with 4-star UVA protection. It says to reapply straight after a swim, even if the label reads water resistant, and every 2 hours.

DanEri Yachts asks for reef-safe sunscreen where you can find it, because Cape Greco is a protected national park.

Water adds to the glare. The NHS says water reflects ultraviolet rays and raises your exposure. It adds that reflected light from water is particularly dangerous for the eyes. It suggests sunglasses with wraparound lenses or wide arms, plus a wide-brimmed hat that shades the face, neck and ears.

Seasickness needs a plan too. Blue Escape Yachts tells sensitive guests to bring motion-sickness tablets. The NHS advises sitting in the middle of a boat and keeping your eyes on the horizon. It also says to skip heavy meals, spicy food and alcohol shortly before or during travel.

Food and drink rules change from boat to boat. Blue Escape Yachts supports bring-your-own, and its Sea Ray has a wet bar with a cooler. Azure Yacht Club bans outside food and drinks and serves its own. Ask before you pack a cooler for an Ayia Napa yacht charter.

Bring a phone and a playlist. Guests of Blue Escape Yachts connect to the boat’s Bluetooth speaker and play their own music.

What do travellers ask about this Ayia Napa yacht charter?

Can children join an Ayia Napa yacht charter?

Yes. DanEri Yachts recommends that children be at least 4 years old and offers life jackets in all sizes. Blue Escape Yachts provides child-size life jackets on request. Children count as guests in the maximum capacity, and parents stay responsible for them.

Can pets come on board an Ayia Napa yacht charter?

Well-behaved pets are welcome at Blue Escape Yachts, which asks you to mention the pet when you book. A small cleaning fee can apply. Owners keep pets off the leather and fabric seats, and scratches or damage are charged at cost.

What happens if you arrive late for an Ayia Napa yacht charter?

Arrive at the harbour at least 15 minutes before the start, says Blue Escape Yachts. Late arrival does not extend the charter and can shorten it, because the boats run to a fixed daily schedule. A no-show counts as a cancellation.

Who decides the route on the day?

The captain decides. Blue Escape Yachts calls its routes indicative and leaves them to the captain on the day. Its terms give the captain full authority over the vessel, the route and safety, and guests must follow the instructions.

Who pays for damage or lost items?

Guests look after their own belongings, says Blue Escape Yachts, which advises leaving valuables ashore. The client repays the cost of repair or replacement when a guest damages the vessel through misuse or negligence.

When does a whole boat beat shared seats?

DanEri Yachts puts the tipping point at about ten guests, where a whole-boat charter starts to make sense. Below that, it calls a shared cruise the cheaper day for two to six people. Our Ayia Napa boat trip page lists the shared cruises.
