THE DESTINATIONS

 
 
CROATIA
With over 1,200 islands to discover, mostly uninhabited, the rocky Adriatic coastline is a nautical paradise. Much of the area is covered by national parks, retaining the beauty of the protected coves, inlets and reefs. Turquoise waters are lapped by impressive ancient white stone ports. After a day of activity on the water, enjoy great seafood and little known prestigious local wines from the comfort of your yacht.
 
GREECE
Truly unique in Europe, breathtaking scenery awaits you in this archipelago of diverse treasures. Steeped in history, over 6,000 islands and hidden coves are found here, each with something new to offer, from rugged limestone cliffs to sandy beaches to the dramatic volcanic backdrops of Santorini and Mykonos . Enjoy your yacht's water toys in crystal-clear waters and take in unforgettable sunsets from the sun deck.
 
TURKEY
East meets West in Turkey, where the Mediterranean joins the Black Sea and ancient civilisations collide. Turkey is a true journey for the senses, exploding with colour and flavour. Charter through the calm waters and discover magical beaches with stunning backdrops, unique rock carvings and thick pine forests. The country's rich biodiversity is protected by hundreds of natural parks and much of the coastline remains untouched, ideal for private cruising.
