Not everyone has a full week. A 3–5 day charter packs the highlights into a concentrated adventure — enough time to visit 4-6 islands, find your rhythm on the water, and disconnect completely. This is how most first-timers fall in love with sailing.
What's Included
Your own private catamaran (40–50ft), with the option to add a professional captain and crew. Water toys (paddleboards, kayaks, snorkel gear), provisioning packages, and a customized itinerary built around your interests. Just bring sunscreen and a sense of adventure.
A Typical Day
Wake to flat water and fresh coffee. Morning swim or snorkel at anchor. Sail 1–3 hours to the next island — lunch on the flybridge with the wind in your hair. Afternoon at a beach bar or hidden cove. Sundowners in the cockpit. Chef-prepared dinner under the stars. Repeat.
Popular Routes
BVI Express (Tortola → Jost Van Dyke → Virgin Gorda → Norman Island) · Exumas Highlights (Nassau → Staniel Cay → Warderick Wells) · Croatia Coastal (Split → Hvar → Vis → Korčula) · Greek Islands Sampler (Athens → Kea → Kythnos → Serifos)
What It Costs
Multi-day charters start from $2,500/day for a bareboat catamaran to $5,000+/day for a fully crewed luxury cat with chef. Group of 6-8 sharing? That's $400–$800 per person per day, all-inclusive. Less than a resort — with better views.
Perfect For
First-time charterers, weekend warriors, couples celebrating something (or nothing), and friend groups who want a taste of the sailing life without committing to a full week. Perfect as a 'try before you buy' experience.
