What to Expect on Your First Yacht Charter

Sarah Mitchell

A complete guide for first-time charterers covering everything from boarding to disembarkation.

Before You Arrive

Your charter broker will handle most preparations, but you'll want to discuss your preferences for itinerary, cuisine, and activities in advance.

Boarding Day

Typically scheduled for the afternoon, boarding begins with a welcome from the captain and crew, a safety briefing, and a tour of the yacht.

Daily Life on Board

Each day unfolds at your own pace. Wake up to coffee served on deck, swim before breakfast, cruise to a new destination, enjoy lunch at anchor, and perhaps visit a shore-side restaurant for dinner.
