Sailing Itineraries: From Corfu to Paxos

A seven-day charter offers the ideal timeframe to explore the diverse coastline of Corfu and its neighboring islands. Most voyages begin by heading south toward the enchanting islands of Paxos and Antipaxos, famous for their turquoise sea caves and the vibrant harbor of Gaios. You can spend your days anchoring in secluded bays like Lakka or exploring the rugged cliffs of the western Corfiot coast. Further south, the mainland town of Parga offers a picturesque stopover with its hilltop castle. For those seeking tranquility, the Diapontia Islands to the northwest of Corfu provide a serene escape from the more frequented tourist paths, offering untouched beaches and authentic Greek hospitality.

Pricing, Logistics, and Booking Process

The cost of weekly yacht charters varies based on the season, the size of the vessel, and the level of luxury required. During the peak months of July and August, prices for a premium yacht can range from €5,000 to over €25,000 per week, while the shoulder seasons of May and September offer more competitive rates. Beyond the base charter fee, guests should budget for the Advanced Provisioning Allowance (APA), which covers fuel, port fees, and food. Booking is straightforward through our platform: once you select your dates and vessel, our consultants coordinate all the finer details, from airport transfers from Corfu International Airport to specific dietary requirements for your onboard meals.

Best Time to Visit and Combined Experiences

The best time for a yachting holiday in Corfu is between late May and early October, when the Ionian weather is characterized by gentle breezes and warm sunshine. Unlike the windy Cyclades, the Ionian Sea offers calmer conditions, making it perfect for families and relaxed cruising. To elevate your vacation, many of our clients choose to combine a week at sea with a few days in one of our luxury villas in areas like Kommeno or Kassiopi. This 'surf and turf' approach allows you to experience the vibrant nightlife and gourmet dining of Corfu island before or after your peaceful retreat on the water, providing a truly balanced Mediterranean escape.

FAQ

What is included in the price of weekly yacht charters in Corfu?

Typically, the price includes the yacht rental, VAT, and basic insurance. Depending on the contract, it may also include the crew's wages. Costs like fuel, food, and mooring fees at marinas like Port of Corfu are usually paid via an Advanced Provisioning Allowance (APA), which is approximately 30% of the charter price.

Do I need a license for a week-long yacht rental?

If you are booking a bareboat charter, a valid ICC or national sailing license is required by Greek law. However, most of our luxury weekly yacht charters come with a professional skipper, meaning no license is required from your side. You can simply relax while our experienced captain navigates the Ionian waters.

Can I customize my sailing itinerary from Corfu?

Absolutely. One of the primary benefits of a weekly charter is the flexibility to design your own route. While we provide suggested itineraries including stops at Syvota, Paxos, and Canal d'Amour, you can discuss your preferences with the skipper to spend more time in specific bays or visit particular seaside tavernas.

What is the typical check-in and check-out time for a weekly rental?

Standard weekly charters in Corfu usually run from Saturday to Saturday. Check-in typically occurs in the late afternoon, around 17:00, allowing the crew to prepare the vessel. Check-out is generally on the following Saturday morning by 09:00, often with a return to the base marina on Friday evening to ensure a smooth departure.
