If you would like access to a large database of the newest bareboat charter vessels
and the world’s best cruise destinations, then look no further than SEAMAJOR.
If you’re an independent sailor who would like control of your own boat, sailing
at your own pace and along your own route, then a bareboat charter could be just
the thing for you. Apart from the point of embarkation and return, the choice of
route will be yours, with one-way charters sometimes possible too. Meet the criteria,
follow an initial briefing, and away you go!
With such freedom and independence on offer, a bareboat charter is so very tempting,
giving you access to the best yachting destinations in the world. Unrestricted by
any outside influence, you and your friends can enjoy your own sailing experience
aboard the vessel of your choice, sailing in your own time to your chosen locations
along your own routes. Swimming and snorkeling in the sea, sunbathing on deck and
on the beaches of isolated bays, and finding some of those idyllic harbor and seaside
villages – it’s all up for grabs on a bareboat charter.
You will, of course, need someone among your party with sufficient experience to
skipper the boat. That person will need to have a skipper license or certified sailing
experience – check with SEAMAJOR for details. As long as you are in that position,
then it’s “aye, aye, cap’n”, and away you and your friends go! Don’t forget – as
there is no crew – that you will also be responsible for cooking and cleaning, but
the choice of meals and eating times will all be yours.
If you can’t provide your own skipper, then SEAMAJOR can provide you with one to
go with the charter yacht you choose.
With our friendly team of experts in the bareboat charter business, we will ensure
that you get a quote within 24 hours of your enquiry, and we also offer a BEST PRICE
GUARANTEE so you will know you’re getting the best value for money boat charters

sailboat? No matter! SEAMAJOR can provide them all. Get in touch now and begin arranging
your perfect vacation.
If you prefer a more luxurious cruise with a captain, hostess and crew to wine and
dine you, then visit Royalty Yachts which can offer you a wide range of fully crewed

One of the most exclusive holiday locations in the world, the Cote d’Azur is also know as the French Riviera. Famous resorts such as St Tropez and Cannes are popular with the rich, famous and those wishing to sample the luxurious lifestyle, and the Cote d’Azur also offers the finer things in life. You can dock at Monaco and take a taste of the life for yourself.
Ibiza is probably the most well-known island in the area, but the rest of the Balearics are Mallorca, Menorca and Formentera, between them boasting some of the most attractive and secluded beaches in the Mediterranean, making them ideal destinations for yacht cruisers looking for peace and relaxation on European coasts. In addition there are a variety of water sports, luxury hotels, busy bars and restaurants, and a vibrant nightlife reachable from the harbours.
The coastline of Croatia in the Mediterranean across the Adriatic from eastern Italy has few peers, with its 1,800 islands and many reefs and rocky coves; it’s a sailor’s paradise! Add to that many of the finest examples of Roman architecture to be found and you have a stunning Dalmation coast to explore. When you have docked the seaside resort towns of Dubrovnik and Split will keep you occupied, as will Porec, with its stores, boutiques and winding streets, plus, of course, the ever-popular bars and restaurants.
Imagine white sandy beaches and crystal clear blue seas, blessed with sun all year round, and you’re imagining the Caribbean. It’s a popular spot for tourists and holidaymakers, with hundreds of stunning destinations to suit all budgets and lifestyles. When travelling to the region by yacht, make sure you stop off at some of the many islands, including Antigua, Barbados and the Bahamas.
The region of Phuket – also known as the ‘Pearl of the South’ – in Thailand is
in Andaman Sea in the Indian Ocean. It consists of coves and bays and is famed for
its tasty seafood and picturesque beaches. Yachting enthusiasts love Phuket, which
is popularly considered to be the prime yachting destination in Asia, and it is
host to the Phuket King’s Cup Regatta – the largest sailing event in Asia, attended
by hundreds of visitors from all around the world. It is also pertinent to note
that there are a number of other water-based activities in the Phuket area, such
as speed boating, deep sea fishing, surfing, snorkelling and scuba diving.

You might fancy the popular destinations like Antibes, St Tropez, Cannes and Cap Ferrat, but to get away from the crowds, you could try the attractive wildness of islands such as those in the Gulf of Hyères – more popularly known as the Iles d’Or thanks to the reflection of golden light seen at sunset. The largest island of the group is Porquerolles, with its wonderful arboreal landscape of eucalyptus trees, umbrella pines and sub-tropical plants, and its crystalline coves. Plage Nôtre Dame is the best beach, and the small colonial-style village is famous for its narrow streets, its inviting rustic cafés, and the ochre-painted church. The dwelling was founded in 1820 by Napoleon as a haven for the honourable veterans of the Grand Armée. In modern times it has become a haven away from the hustle and bustle of the Côte d'Azur. In the daytime you can explore the botanical trails of Porquerolles by mountain bike; in the evening you can taste Provençal cooking at the Mas du Langoustier, a large manor house on the western end of the island.
In Capri’s second town of Anacapri, you can dine on the terrace at the classy L’Olivio restaurant in the Capri Palace Hotel. Southern Italy has the fiery passion that wills you to live life to the full, and it has the taste to raise it above the rest. Many clients often ask for the authentic Italian experience and the Neapolitan Coast and the islands of Southern Italy can give you exactly that.
As well as the well-known and undeniably alluring historical attractions such as Pompeii, there are the more immediate pleasures such as dining at the Palazzo Sasso in Ravello and attending a concert at Villa Rufolo. The best way to see Capri is, of course, from your own private super-yacht. One famous destination is the Blue Grotto, but you shouldn’t miss the Villa Jovis, the ruin of Roman Emperor Tiberius’s home, and taking the chairlift to the island’s high point, Mount Solaro (1,932 feet) is an exciting trip. Take a look at the Faraglioni Rocks, but don’t miss a glass of wine and a plate of olives at Da Luigi.
You should try to make room in your itinerary for the Pontine Islands – further north – too. There is Ponza for dining on the waterfront and Palmarola for peace, as it is uninhabited.
On the western side of Italy, when sailing out of Naples, you can find the Aeolian (or Lipari) Islands – an archipelago of hidden gems north east of Sicily. Here you might see the erupting volcano on Stromboli, and you can try fresh seafood at Kasbah on Lipari, or visit Hotel Raya and explore its boutique for exclusive gifts. The beaches at Stromboli are black volcanic and the smouldering volcano sits behind you. In the evening you could even have dinner on your yacht, with the sky lit by the volcanic glow. The capital of the islands is Lipari, but the best has to be Panarea, a delightful escape from the Capri crowds which combines the simplicity of life and barefoot chic as only the Italians can. Hotel Raya on Panarea can provide a wonderful lunch or dinner on its whitewashed terraces with a spectacular sea view.
The combination of these two islands gives you the full contrast of cultures and geography. Sardinia has 1,800 km of coastline, but the best cruising is saved for the well kept Costa Smeralda, including Porto Cervo and Cala di Volpe. You cannot afford to miss the bar at Hotel Cala di Volpe, the jewel in the Aga Khan’s coastline vision, and the Cipriani restaurant at Porto Cervo is part of the Billionaire Club – a truly exclusive summer nightclub. If you are a party person then Nikki Beach and Sottovento will keep you busy until the small hours. While Sardinia scores highly for luxury, that’s not what it’s all about. Secluded beaches nestle away out of reach by land, but within the compass of your yacht. Costa Smeralda is called the Emerald Coast and with good reason – the rest of the Mediterranean can barely match the stunning seascapes here.
Just two cruising hours away from Sardinia is mountainous Corsica – more relaxed and not famous for nightlife or clubs. Nevertheless, Via Notte, just south of Porto Vecchio, is known as a glamorous alternative to Ibiza. The island can boast two Michelin-starred restaurants: L’Alivu at La Villa above Calvi, and the restaurant at the Grand Hôtel de Cala Rossa in Porto Vecchio. Of course, as the island is French, there is fine dining everywhere – from the total gourmet experience to chargrilled seafood on a wooden fire on the beach. A highlight of your visit to Corsica would have to be the harbour at Bonifacio – natural, and back-dropped with steep and dramatic limestone cliffs. The perched Citadel gives memorable views and wonderful seafood is served at La Caravelle restaurant on the quayside.
If it’s just Greece you’re interested in, then why not start at Athens from where you can visit islands at Hydra, Mykonos, Ios, Santorini and Paros. In July and August the Ionian islands are to be recommended as they provide shelter from the prevailing Aegean winds. Corfu is a good place to start – in the south there are numerous sandy beaches, and in the north a number of quiet, unspoilt villages. The islands of Paxos and Anti-Paxos have lovely harbours, and, for a range of culture, villages, beaches and lovely seafront tavernas try Cephalonia, Zakinthos and Ithaca. If you are in this part of the world, give yourself at least ten days to really get a feel for life here.
The Croatian Adriatic can be an ideal place to relax and enjoy peaceful cruising. More than a thousand islands offer so many coves, anchorages, islets and inlets that you couldn’t possibly explore them all. The Dalmation islands give you a chance to cruise through scenery that combines quiet bays, picturesque villages and empty beaches with wooded islands, the mountains of the mainland and crystal clear waters. Croatia’s geography ensures that as you head south the scenery takes even more of your breath away. The history and archaeology of the region is influenced by the culture of Greece, Rome and Venice. The scenery gives you a tranquillity, but there are plenty of waterfront towns to give you the night time buzz, if you want it. Hvar, Split and Dubrovnik can all offer shops, restaurants and night clubs. In addition, consider Trogir, Vis, Korcula and Mijet for your itinerary.
