What Does a Typical Day Look Like?

Most daily charters last 7 to 8 hours. During the day, the yacht usually visits three bays, spending around 1 to 2 hours at each – plenty of time to swim in crystal-clear water, snorkel, sunbathe on the sundeck and enjoy lunch on board.

The crew takes care of everything: serving drinks and lunch, preparing the deck and making sure you can simply relax. There is music on board, with Bluetooth so you can play your own playlist as you cruise between the bays.
