Charter

Looking for the vacation of your dreams?

Not only can you follow a sailing course with us, it’s also possible to charter your own boat! With our charter branch, Portokali, everyone can sail! As a beginner or experienced skipper, alone or with a group, of all ages: the options are all there.

It is possible for you to charter on your own, which we call Bareboat, or within a flotilla with multiple other yachts.

Flotilla

In a flotilla you will sail with a group led by one ship. The lead skippers will plan a beautiful route in the area and give you instructions every day of where to go, how to dock, secure spots for you in each harbour or bays and arrange dinner reservations! They will support you in anything you might need assistance with throughout the week. And of course they have the best knowledge of the area and great addresses to visit for social, tourism, and food. The most important? All is possible but nothing is mandatory. This is perfect if you are new to the charter experience, it allows you to enjoy and practice your new skipper skills without worries and with great support on the water! Another benefit of sailing in a flotilla is the great social experience where you get to meet many people who share the same love of sailing holidays! If you have children, they will love playing around on shore with other families, while you can enjoy a drink together πŸ˜‰

Bareboat

You can also opt for full freedom on your own yacht. With your friends and family, sail away from any place in the world and make your own plan for the week! Any type of yacht (including catamarans), any level of luxury, staff around or not? Everything is possible to create your ideal vacation. Greece, Thailand, Norway, Canaris Island, Caribbean, Netherlands, just pick your destination and we will look for the perfect fit for you! You can of course book a skipper on board and a hostess as well to make sure your glass is always filled, breakfast is ready, and you can fully activate your holiday mode.

Flotillas are running in Greece all season long, departing not only from Aegina on our own yachts, but also from many other places such as Athens, Corfu, Lefkas and Samos. Most weeks are led in Dutch but we are now also offering international weeks! Make sure to ask us which dates are available. We are always flexible if you have preferred dates in mind, we could decide to open an English led flotilla then!Β 

For both flotilla and bareboat options it is possible to book a skipper on board if you do not have your license yet (minimum of RYA Day Skipper or equivalent), do not feel fully comfortable sailing yourself yet, or if you simply want to relax and tan all week long!

Prices are tailored according to your preferred weeks, size and year of yacht, and options on board. If you wish to receive an offer, please send us an inquiry at info@portokali.nl or contact us here for more information, we will be happy to help!

You can browse our charter website Portokali.nl for a great idea of what your next vacation could look like. Our website is in Dutch, and we are working on the English version for all our new certified students πŸ˜‰ In the meantime, you can open the link on Google Chrome and automatically translate it!
