Itineraries · Family with Kids
A family yacht charter blends relaxation, exploration, and fun for children of all ages — warm clear waters, picturesque islands, and the comforts of home on the water.
Why a Family Charter
Your family enjoys privacy and comfort, moving from island to island at your own pace.
Charters often include meals, water-sports equipment, and excursions — keeping kids happily entertained.
Children learn about marine life and conservation while snorkelling, diving, or visiting local villages.
Peace of Mind
A well-maintained vessel with child-friendly features — safety rails, life jackets for all ages, non-slip surfaces, and spacious common areas. Two-bedroom family cabins give parents and kids their own space.
A skilled captain and crew used to handling families, with members trained in first aid and emergency protocols.
Conditions are monitored daily. The best months are October to April, when the seas are calmer.
Minimum age is typically around 8 for diving, while younger children can snorkel. On a private charter, children of all ages are usually welcome — and many charters offer age-related discounts and the option to hire a nanny.
In the Water
Shallow waters with abundant marine life — perfect for beginners, with visibility often exceeding 30 metres.
