You should know that there are 6.000 Greek islands and islets, in the Aegean and Ionian sea regions, of which only 227 islands are inhabited. The Greek Archipelago takes up 7.500 km of the country’s total 16.000 km coastline. This makes Greece an ideal country for chartering a yacht. Offering golden sand, pebbly, cobble beaches, amazing bays, coves and caves, azure seas and blue skies,what more could the aspiring yachtsman require?

Greece is a country full of surprises. With a Mediterranean climate and warm sunshine from April to September, the charter season is long and luxurious. High season runs from July and August, with these months being very busy in places, but there are always quiet, unexplored places to discover, and where ever you go you can be assured of finding a lifestyle truly Greek! Out of season yacht charters often start as early as March and go on to the end of October, when sea temperatures are still warm enough for swimming. July and August peak in high temperatures (anything between 30 - 45 degrees Celsius) with daylight ending at 21:00h at midsummer. This fits in with the Greek cosmopolitan lifestyle of dining, drinking and enjoying life after dark and well into the early hours!
