About the Luxury Motor Yacht — Full Day

Charter a private motor yacht with captain and crew, exclusively for your group of up to 25 guests, and spend around six hours on the water off Side. Route and menu are arranged for you alone, which makes the boat a popular choice for proposals, anniversaries and birthdays.

Tour programme

  1. Boarding at the harbour via steps; the captain and crew welcome you (VIP hotel transfer available on request at extra cost).
  2. Departure and cruise along the coast — you see the Temple of Apollo and Side's old-town silhouette from the sea.
  3. Swimming stops in calm, sheltered bays.
  4. Lunch or dinner served on board; the menu is agreed with you in advance.
  5. Free time on deck for more swimming, sunbathing and photos.
  6. Return to the harbour after roughly six hours; on request the whole programme shifts to the evening so you sail back at sunset.

Fuel, harbour fees, insurance and crew are included in the price. Drinks are sold at the onboard bar, and you may bring one bottle of spirits yourself. Please note: boarding is via steps, so the yacht is not suitable for wheelchair users. In bad weather the captain postpones or cancels free of charge.

Book with instant confirmation, pay on board on the day of the tour, and cancel free of charge up to 24 hours in advance.
