The Time of Year to Charter a Yacht in the Caribbean:

The main Caribbean sailing season runs from November through to July. The Caribbean primary high season is from mid-December to March, when the winter escapees from North America and Europe arrive in their greatest numbers. The hurricane season is from late July to early October, although hurricanes are in general rare in the southern Caribbean. Unfortunately, they can be prevalent around Cuba, Bahamas and the east coast of the U.S. every few years. This is the least expensive time for chartering in the Caribbean and there are some really good deals are available. However, as well as running the risk of storms, this time of year also tends to be associated with lighter (or non-existent) winds.

As with many boating locations the Caribbean shoulder season, in this case from April to July, is also a great time to charter a boat as there are less shore based visitors, some lovely settled sunny weather, and warm yet steady breeze. The Caribbean is made up of many different multi-nation (and multi-cultural) volcanic islands. There are amazing sailing grounds stretching from Cuba and Jamaica in the west, through the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, The Virgin Islands, The Leeward Islands and the Windward Islands, finishing with Trinidad and Tobago off the coast of Venezuela.

With lovely bays, long beaches, lush nature preserves, fabulous diving spots, and excellent, onshore evening entertainment, many choose to vacation in the USVI’s.

Caribbean Charters - When To Go.

One of the lovely things about the Caribbean is that the temperatures remain consistent throughout the year; however, there are some other weather considerations that you will want to factor in when making your caribbean yachting vacation plans. Read More....

Vacations here are most popular between November and July.

If you are thinking of a megayacht, you will want to keep in mind that many of these private yachts which are Caribbean based in winter leave in the late spring and early summer months. They will return again in early winter; however, this does limit their availability. To charter a mega yacht, you will want to make sure that you do so well in advance.

Motor, sail, or catamaran yachts, on the other hand, often have selections available year round. Holidays like Christmas, New Year’s, and Easter do need to be planned for as early as possible as these are very popular charter times.

The availability for Caribbean charters can also be affected by the weather in other climates, for instance, when the severity of the weather is bad in the United States or Europe, especially between January and February, the charters are often booked. This is due to many clients looking for a break from the cold.

Caribbean Yacht Charter: the Full Price List

The Caribbean is one of the most popular destinations for yacht charters, and it’s easy to see why.

A yacht rental in the Caribbean  because of its lovely temperature and gorgeous beaches, is a true sailing playground that includes legendary superyacht locations like Antigua , St. Barts, or the Virgin Islands .

But renting a yacht in the Caribbean doesn’t come free. Here are the main factors that influence the price of a yacht charter in the Caribbean, along with the most common price ranges you can expect.

Summary of Yacht charter price ranges in the Caribbean (USD per week incl. food and beverage)

What factors influence the price of a yacht charter in the Caribbean?

An individuals owner determines the price he wants to offer for his yacht while following the market. The pricing is based on metrics like the local demand, boat length,  category, crew number and the boat age. Along with this, there are several additional factors that might considerably affect pricing. These are as follows:

1.The yacht you want to charter: the main factor determining the cost of your Caribbean charter

The yacht is a significant component in defining the charter cost, although size is not the only determinant. A freshly introduced charter boat from a renowned builder with an experienced and well-liked charter crew will attract the highest pricing for its size class. Additionally, yachts with a renowned name or a legacy of famous ownership can charge a premium for their “fame.” And yachts with distinctive amenities like movies or unique water toys are also more expensive.

Furthermore, if a yacht has a space in its charter schedule, such as after an unexpected cancellation, certain brokers will sometimes provide a limited-time charter fee reduction.

Don’t make pricing the only factor when choosing a private yacht. It is essential to comprehend why prices are high or low for a particular yacht and accordingly make a decision.

2. The Caribbean destination itself: one of the factor influencing the price of a Caribbean yacht rental

In the Caribbean , there are over a thousand islands to select from, making it arguably the most excellent location for tropical yacht charters globally. You can charter in the Caribbean in three major regions: The Bahamas , the Greater Antilles, the Windward and the Leeward islands .

Depending on the charter type, the costs, amenities, and crew vary. As per your budget, comfort, and expectation, you may choose one that fulfills your idea of an ideal charter yacht. Here are some examples:

$2’000 USD is the minimum weekly price for a bareboat yacht rental

Bareboat charters are the most affordable alternative. You are responsible for fuel, food, and other expenditures, hiring the crew (or captaining the boat, if you’re licensed to do so), and paying the crew. Additionally, you may consider adding a skipper, hostess, or a mix of the two for bareboat charters. If you’re chartering a bareboat since you are licensed, you will be responsible for all aspects of navigating, sailing, mooring, and security.

Further, it is up to you to pick whether to cook or dine at local eateries along the road. Bareboat charters provide exceptional flexibility to explore whenever and wherever (weather permitting, of course), providing a unique vacation experience for the entire family.

At least one person in the group should be a seasoned sailor, or you may pre-arrange to have a captain on board if you’re visiting a new place for the first time and want to take it easy as a local guide down the coast.

$3’700 USD is the minimum weekly price for a skippered yacht charter

Skippered Yacht Charter is often a Bareboat Charter with the inclusion of a skilled, local Skipper who assumes full accountability for the safety of the boat, navigation, sailing, and anchoring. When floating, the skippers will gladly function as your guide and tour your various secluded harbors and anchorages that are often unfamiliar to most visitors. Subject to weather circumstances, he will pay heed to your desires of where you wish to travel and try his best to accommodate them.

Even if you are a novice, you will love learning to navigate the boat on your own with the assistance of a professional. It is a frequent assumption that a skippered yacht charter would cost significantly more than a bareboat hire. However, this is only sometimes the case.

$16’000 USD is the minimum weekly price for a crewed yacht charter

Crewed charter refers to a luxury charter rented with an entire crew. Generally, the crew onboard differs from charter to charter. Depending on their size, yachts may only have a captain and hostess/cook on board, or they may have a full complement of crew members, including a captain, engineer, deck assistant, experienced chef, and others.

Moreover, the bigger and more luxurious the yacht charter is, the better amenities you will experience. Fully crewed yacht rentals are ideal for individuals looking for an extraordinary and exclusive holiday of a lifetime. Onboard the fully crewed yacht rentals, and you will have a relaxing experience. You may make yourself as comfortable as you like. The personnel will give professional, five-star services while respecting your privacy and fulfilling your expectations.

Our tips to decrease the cost of a yacht charter in the Caribbean

A private yacht charter is a great experience, yet it can cost a fortune for some. What if we share a few tips to lower the costs of your yacht charter trip? Here are some:

Charter a yacht during the Caribbean shoulder season

Scheduling a yacht charter during the shoulder or off-season could save you up to half the price, even though sailing in the high season will guarantee the best weather. Yet, if you are a budget traveler or wish to experience charter at the best rates, consider booking at the shoulder reason.

Summer is the peak period in the Mediterranean, with the coldest months being January and February. If you want to save money, you should travel in the spring or fall, when the weather is milder and the water is warmer for swimming.

Excellent sailing conditions exist throughout the year in the Caribbean. However, hurricane season extends from June to November, with the peak of storm activity being between the middle of August and the middle of September.

Before making a reservation, evaluate your off-season location’s monthly mean temperature, rainfall, wind speed, and wind patterns. Stormy weather with high rainfall will not make a trip enjoyable. Hence, plan accordingly.

Pick a cheaper Caribbean destinations

The location, timing, and yacht charter firm you choose all have a significant impact on the cost. You can try and pick an island within the whole Caribbean easy for you to reach depending on where your departure country is. In fact it is easier to arrive in Saint Thomas than to Martinique from the USA, whereas from Europe it will be easy to reach Guadeloupe from France, or Saint Vincent or the United Kingdom with regular commercial flights. Be aware, that taxi planes exist, and can help in commuting between the islands. Popular Leeward islands like the Virgin Islands, Saint Barth or Antigua can be expensive to pick for. Yacht charter during the holidays season, and during popular events such as the Heineken Regatta. So you may want to choose to sail towards the grenadines in May for example, which is a wonderful cruise to do.

Further, they don’t require a big crew to maintain and operate. Hence, a small sailboat makes globe travel much cheaper!

Sailing Around Windward and Leeward Islands of the Caribbean

The  Caribbean covers a huge region of widely spread islands 2,000 miles (3,218 km) long.

The larger ones have become sovereign countries with broad range of amenities for sailors, while the smaller ones still preserve its untouched rural charm and tranquility.

From the western tip of Cuba to the Leewards in the east, then south to the top of South America and along Venezuela’s north coast – this chain of islands has created a hook-like shape around the Caribbean Sea. Location like this is always an enticing bait for sailing - perfect climate and  array of diverse cultures, customs, cuisines and experiences, water sports and an unlimited number of other attractions.

Planning sailing vacations in Caribbean, you may wish to consider these groupings of the islands as points of your itinerary, as they contain many popular cruising areas and harbor stops. There is no doubt that in the scope of Caribbean bareboat or skippered yacht charters  both groups have their charms and countless reasons to explore, which definitely makes it a great sailing destination.

Caribbean yacht rentals

12 Knots offers eleven yacht charter bases in the Caribbean region, each with unique individual character, providing sailing experience for everyone, from a novice to an experienced sailor. This region comprises more than 700 hundred islands and islets, so you can choose Caribbean sailing vacations with shot and easy hops or more challenging passages.

Taking Caribbean sailing vacations, you will find warm and steady trade winds in picturesque surroundings; discover plenty of great bars and authentic cuisine!

It’s up to you, choosing between the Leeward Caribbean islands with short and easy hops with line-of-sight sailing and the Windward with more challenging open water passages. Wherever you go, you will return home relaxed, refreshed and ready to start planning your next Caribbean sailing adventure.

The Windward islands

Windward Islands located at the southern end of the Caribbean island chain and stretch for over 300 miles to the south-eastern end of the Caribbean Sea. The Windward Islands are simply called so due to their position as they are exposed to the northeast trade winds. For experienced sailors, it can be right choice to sail among the four main islands: Martinique, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and Grenada. They lay far apart each other allowing open ocean sailing and while steady easterly trade winds, make passages north or south easy. With constant 12 to 25 knots wind, Caribbean sailing is among best in the world. Night anchorages in peaceful and protected areas give sailors freedom to explore and soak up British and French island culture. The islands of St. Lucia, St. Vincent and Grenada  were British colonies until they gained independence during the 1970s. Martinique is still an overseas department of France.

The climate of the Windward Islands is definitely a marine one.

When tropical heat reaches its peak, steady trade winds and daily sea breezes come to rescue.

Typically, dry and wet seasons go hand in hand here. Although the priority of more rainfalls is given to the eastern side of the islands mainly due to the prevailing north-east trade winds there.

The islands east of Puerto Rico were called “Windward Islands” by the Spanish, while the islands south of Puerto Rico were named as “Leewards “. And Dominica positions itself right on the border line between the Windward and the Leeward Islands.

Long time ago some of the islands used to be French colonies, subsequently gained its name as The French Antilles.

The population of the Windward Islands is mostly of African origin, with some exceptions of Chinese and Caucasians. The present day Windward Islands will welcome tourists with upscale resorts, stunning beaches and pleasant sunny weather.

After cruising through the Windward Islands, you may wish to set sails to the Leeward Islands.

The Leeward islands

The Leeward islands are located on the eastern edge of the Caribbean Sea and form the northeastern boundary between Caribbean and Atlantic Ocean, extending from Puerto Rico to the Windward Islands, forming part of the Lesser Antilles chain.

Although 700 miles long stretch of these magnificent isles mostly constitute the whole body of the Leewards, it provides the abundance of enjoyment: quaint fishing spots, ancient ruins and delicious authentic cuisine.

Blessed with balmy temperatures all around the year, The Leeward Islands are called leeward because they're away from the wind or downwind (in the "lee"). Leeward group of Caribbean islands includes: the U.S. Virgin Islands, the British Virgin Islands, Anguilla, Saint Martin, Saint-Barthelemy, Saba, Sint Eustatius, Saint Kitts, Nevis, Barbuda, Antiqua, Redonda, Montserrat and Guadeloupe.

One of two "sister islands", St Kitts and Nevis, provides a brilliant Caribbean experience, from their picture-perfect beaches and volcanic mountains to friendly locals and layers of history to explore. For the water sport lovers, there are numerous aquatic activities that include fishing, diving, windsurfing and surfing.

St.Kitts and Nevis

Switch from sailing to inland for a change and St.Kitts and Nevis will deliver the most exceptional hiking in the Caribbean. The dormant volcano of Mount Liamuiga is considered to be the toughest to climb. And with the experienced guide you may even try to descend in its crater!

The unspoiled landscape of dry littoral forest and rainforest will present memorable show of fauna and flora. Many plants are of culinary and medical use, and some even used in black magic, as informative guides would point out its botanical value.

The wild life-lovers will not be disappointed with variety of different types of exotic animals.

Actually, the Great Salt Pond has become famous for its largest habitat of green velvet monkeys.

St. Kitts and Nevis will keep you captivated with majestic view of huge conical shells, remains of old sugar mills, along with some other plantation ruins, built in the 18 th century.

Back to water activities, and tourists will be pleased with what these two island can offer: deep-water fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving and more.

Then in order to satisfy your growing appetite visit two popular restaurants: Carambola and the Shipwreck Bar and Grill to enjoy its delicious local meals.

A yacht charter in the Caribbean Leeward Islands offers sailors an unrivalled remarkable experience. Enjoy tropical landscapes, pristine palm-lined beaches and azure waters — all the joys of marine life.

Sailing over the Leeward Islands may have all the pleasures to offer: the Tropical rainforests, glittering coral reefs, and luxury sand beaches. That’s probably why most of the known tourist resorts on these islands play a critical role in their economy, as do banking and fishing. Many of them also rely on their status as a tax haven to promote offshore financial services as a source of government revenue. But there is much more to discover in the Leeward Islands. These Caribbean islands provide great variety of yachts for charter and pleasant sailing vacations. Most of the Leeward Islands are located close to each other with moderate winds from 10 to 15 knots and rather low wavers. BVI is the most popular area for Caribbean charters either bareboat or luxury crewed vacations. This is the right place for the novice sailor’s easy passages in line-of-sight sailing.

The climate of the Caribbean Leeward Islands can be described as tropical, but much drier than in Windward Islands. Though the climate does vary from island to island and can even be different in different parts of the same island. Rainfall increases with elevation and in more southerly latitudes. In some cases trade winds look like refreshing tonic to the tropical heat. There is minor seasonal variation, although the second half of the year, the wet season, is slightly warmer and rainier. The best time for sailing in the Caribbean may be the first half of the year. At this time the temperatures usually range between 81°F (27°C) and 95°F(35°C). Annual rainfall averages about 40 to 50 inches (1016 to 1270 mm). Keep in mind, that nearly every island had been severely damaged by hurricane activity in its recent history.

English is the most widespread language all around the islands, plus many of the people speak French and Dutch on the St Martin Island. Both English-based and French-based Creole are also spoken. The prevailing currency is The East Caribbean dollar. But St Martin is odd man out again, circulating the Netherlands Antilles guilder in the Dutch area and the Euro in the French region. Nevertheless, the US dollar is widely accepted throughout the islands.

If you eager to take part in sporting activities, then you may be pleased to know that cricket is widely played and followed in the former British territories. Besides, as in the rest of the Caribbean, music is also always a big part of local life. Enjoy the magical sounds of calypso, soca, steelpan, reggae, salsa and jazz — all of the mentioned has their adherents.

During your Caribbean yacht charter, you may wish to participate in some major holiday celebrations, including the St Kitts Christmas, New Year carnaval, the annual music festival, as well as Anguilla’s Emancipation Day and Culturama festival on August 1st.

The culture of the Leeward Islands is varied by different influences, including French, Dutch and West Indian. Due to that sailing around the Leeward Islands provides a wonderful choice of cuisine and some great restaurants to satisfy your affection for the finest dishes. By the way, the island of Anguilla offers true gastronomic feasts. When sailing in the Caribbean Leeward Islands, be sure to try freshly caught lobsters with a glass of wine.

Other Frequently Asked Questions

Explore other Frequently Asked Questions about crewed yacht charter costs to find helpful insights and answers, ensuring a smooth and informed planning process for your ultimate yachting experience.

Are There Other Hidden Fees or Expenses I Should Be Aware Of?

Unless otherwise specified in your contract, the Charter Fee does not include scuba diving or equipment, premium beverages or fine wines, excessive alcohol consumption, off yacht excursions, dockage at guests request, phone expense, airport or inter island transfers, or similar expenses.

What’s Included On “Plus Expenses” Charters?

These “plus expenses” crewed yacht charters include the yacht and crew only, with all other expenses during the charter coming at an additional cost to the Charterer. These other expenses are paid via an upfront APA (advance provisioning allowance) and typically at 35% on top of the base Charter Fee.

What’s Excluded on “Plus Expenses” Charters?

These “plus expenses” charters exclude everything but the yacht and crew, such as fuel for the yacht and tender, all food requests, all beverage and bar requests, guest dockage requests during the charter, etc. Another key exclusion is the customary crew gratuity, with standard at 15 to 20% on top of the Charter Fee.

What Is The Cancellation Policy?

Charter deposits are considered non-refundable, except where specifically provided for within your charter contract. In the event of a cancellation on the part of the Charterer, and should the yacht rebook for all or a portion of the charter dates, deposits paid or a prorated portion thereof is available, less a 20% cancellation fee.

Should I Get Trip Insurance?

Trip Insurance is suggested year round and particularly if chartering during hurricane season in order to protect your charter investment. The choice of whether or not to secure trip insurance and the insurance source you choose is always at your discretion, but some industry recommended sources will be made available for consideration.

Do The Yachts Charge A Premium For Christmas And New Year's Charters?

Yes. Christmas and New Year’s charters have premium rates due to the popularity of these weeks. These premiums are typically at least 10% on top and can go up quickly based on yacht & crew popularity, etc. New Year’s charters are often more expensive than Christmas charters.

Will The Charter Fee Get Pro-Rated for Charters Less Than 1 Week?

Most yachts offer 6 night charters at a prorated rate. To determine 6 night rates, the industry divides the weekly rate by 7 and multiplies by 6. To determine 5 night rates, the industry divides the weekly rate by 6 and multiplies by 5. Due to this calculation, the difference between 5 and 6 nights is minimal.

Is It Possible To Charter For Less?

The cost table provided represents typical charter rate ranges, but there are occasionally available yachts which may charter for less. Some yachts may be offering published specials or you can consider a 6 night charter at a prorated rate.

Will The Crewed Yachts Negotiate On Price?

No. The owners and management companies set the rates for the crewed yachts within the fleet. All yachts therefore have "published rates" that do not vary based on how the charter is booked or who books it. The yachts are priced according to the size and age of the yacht along with the popularity of the crew, etc.

Will The Yachts Provide A Discount If You Have Meals Ashore?

Some yachts offer a half-board charter or a local-fare charter, both providing a small discount for at least 3 to 6 meals taken ashore. The discount provided is often not enough to pay for the meals taken ashore and this type of charter is therefore suited for those who simply enjoy dining ashore.

What Is A Half-Board Charter?

Some of the yachts in the fleet offer a published half-board charter rate. Usually this means that a combination of lunches and dinners are taken ashore at the clients expense, typically one meal per day with a corresponding small discount in the rate.

What Is A Local Fare Charter?

Some of the yachts in the fleet offer a published local-fare charter. Usually this means that a combination of lunches and dinners are taken ashore at the clients expense, typically 3 meals during the charter with a corresponding small discount in rate.

Do The Yachts Offer Lower Prices For The Summer/Low Season?

For a majority of crewed yachts in the fleet, the summer season or what used to be the “low season” runs from May 1 through December 14 and winter season or what used to be the “high season” runs from December 15 through April 30. Most crewed yachts now operate on a year round rate.

Do Costs Vary By Yacht Style?

Yes. Sailing catamarans are the only yacht style available within the affordable $20,000 to $35,000 range. In the mid-range of $35,000 to $50,000, you’ll find a wide assortment of sailing catamarans and a handful of power catamarans. High-end yachts that start at $50,000 include sailing and power catamarans plus all motor yachts options.

Charters in St. Maarten/St. Barts or the Grenadines are typically plus cruising taxes/permits. Charters in the Bahamas tend to be most expensive due to a 4% Government tax plus 10% Vat tax on top.

Do You Offer Bareboat Charters Or Charters With Just A Captain aboard?

No. We only offer charters with at least a Professional Captain and Chef aboard. While some of the crewed yachts may note a “Captain-Only” rate within their rate details on their yacht e-brochure, please note that Carefree Yacht Charters does not book these types of charters for our clients.

Charter a Yacht in the Caribbean: Here’s What You Need to Know

Charter a yacht in the Caribbean and sail the seas on your own time. No packed planes or big cruise lines with shared buffets—just you, your crew, and all the island vibes. So forget hopping on a plane or a cruise ship, but instead level up your travel experience with a private yacht charter.

Here, we tell you about the best destinations, the advantages of private yacht charters, costs and more.

Where is the Best Place to Charter a Private Yacht in the Caribbean?

Thinking of exploring the Caribbean on a private yacht? Fort Lauderdale is the perfect launching point for an island-hopping adventure. From here you have easy access to a multitude of islands including the Florida Keys, Cuba, the Bahamas, the British Virgin Islands, and more. Plus, there are some pretty amazing companies like Moretti Yachts International that offer yacht charters out of Fort Lauderdale and can customize dream travel itineraries.

Charter a Yacht to These Destinations in the Caribbean

Located just south of Fort Lauderdale, Miami is the obvious choice if you’re looking for an easy sailing trip. It also makes for a great first stop on a longer journey out to sea. There’s so much to see and do in this dynamic Florida city, from shopping on Lincoln Avenue to checking out the street art in Wynwood, and partying at the clubs in South Beach. With a yacht charter, you can dock in one of Miami’s many marinas and immerse yourself in the buzz of the city before returning to the tranquility of the sea.

The Florida Keys

Heading further down the Atlantic Coast, the Florida Keys are a string of gorgeous islands, each offering its own vibe. Start with a snorkeling session at John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park in Key Largo, then head over to Key West to visit Ernest Hemingway’s old home. Watch the sunset at Mallory Square before heading to a waterfront restaurant for fresh seafood caught that day. Want to escape the crowds? Sail over to Dry Tortuga National Park for unspoiled beaches and clear waters.

The Bahamas are just a few hours by private yacht from Fort Lauderdale, making them the perfect choice if you’re looking to explore a new country without having to go too far. Picture cruising over aquamarine waters, stopping in at peaceful coves, and bouncing between the islands at your own pace. Along the way you can snorkel off Eleuthera, enjoy conch salad at a local beach shack, or just relax on deck with a cocktail in hand and the ocean breeze gently rippling through your hair.

If you’re feeling adventurous, a private yacht charter can take you to Cuba. Experience the beauty of old Havana, savor authentic Cuban cigars and rum, and explore the rich history of this intriguing country. Contrary to popular belief, Americans can travel to Cuba provided you have the proper license. The most common one that people look into is the ‘Support for Cuban People’ license. Many private yacht charters can walk you through the details of obtaining the license and any other permissions or permits you may need.

The British Virgin Islands

The British Virgin Islands (BVI) is an archipelago of tropical islands that are perfect for exploring by boat. Think clear blue waters, compelling coastlines, and coral reefs teeming with marine life. Navigate the famous Baths of Virgin Gorda, soak up the laid-back vibes of Jost Van Dyke, or explore the underwater worlds around Anegada. With reliable trade winds and short hops between islands, BVI is an easy destination to reach from Fort Lauderdale and other points in the Caribbean.

Turks and Caicos Islands

If it’s beautiful beaches and clear turquoise waters you’re after, Turks and Caicos should be on your radar. The archipelago is made up of over 40 islands, with Providenciales being the most popular. Here you’ll find some of the best restaurants in Turks and Caicos , as well as plenty of activities to take part in, including kiteboarding, golfing and hiking. It’s a long boat ride from Fort Lauderdale to Turks and Caicos, so most people fly to the islands and charter a yacht from there.

Cayman Islands

Scuba diving, snorkeling, and swimming with stingrays are just a few of the things you can do on a private yacht charter in the Cayman Islands. There are three different islands to explore: Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman. On each you’ll find breathtaking beaches surrounded by crystal-clear waters. The trip from Fort Lauderdale to the Cayman Islands takes a few days by boat, but it’s worth it for the spectacular scenery you’ll see on the way and when you arrive.

The Eastern Caribbean

Ready to stretch your horizons to the east? Trust us, the Eastern Caribbean has a ton of island gems just waiting to be discovered. On your list? Definitely pencil in the Virgin Islands—both British and U.S.—along with St. Maarten, Antigua and Barbuda, St. Lucia, Barbados, and Grenada. Sure, it’s a bit of a jaunt, but the variety of landscapes, cultures, and bespoke experiences are worth the time and effort.

The Western Caribbean

Set sail south of Florida and you have a wide array of islands and coastlines to visit in the Western Caribbean. Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula includes Cozumel and Cancún, which are renowned for their white sand beaches and plethora of beach resorts. Belize and Honduras have gorgeous cayes, jungles, and ancient Mayan ruins. The Cayman Islands are also considered part of the Western Caribbean.

The Advantages of Private Yacht Charters

Another huge advantage is that you’ll have the flexibility to travel wherever you want, whenever you want. You can plan a trip based on your personal interests and preferences. Want to party in Miami clubs or hit up secluded Bahamian cays? It’s totally up to you.

The personalized service is also a major selling point. Most yacht charters come with a crew of people who are there to cater to all your needs. Think chefs whipping up dishes that’d make your foodie friends jealous and captains who know the seas like the back of their hand. It’s not just service; it’s an experience tailored just for you, minus the typical touristy fluff. Get ready for some next-level pampering.

Then there’s the opportunity to explore remote destinations. Private yachts can go where huge cruise ships can’t and places that the big tour companies don’t put on their itineraries. Forget crowded beaches. Drop anchor at secluded bays and make the sea your private swimming pool.

How Much Does it Cost to Charter a Yacht in the Caribbean?

Private might sound pricey, but that doesn’t have to be the case. With a group and some savvy planning, chartering a yacht can be comparable to a stay at a chic Caribbean resort. That being said, there are a number of factors that can affect the price of your yacht charter.

The main things to consider when trying to work out how much a private yacht charter will cost are the type of yacht you want to travel on, the duration of your trip, the season, and the extras you want onboard. For example, chartering a superyacht for a month in the peak season with a full crew onboard is not going to be cheap. However, a short trip on a no-frills sailboat might not break the bank.

Are Yacht Charters All-inclusive?

Good question! When you hear “all-inclusive”, you might be picturing endless cocktails and buffet lines. But with yacht charters, it’s a different ball game. Most yacht charters come with the basics: the yacht itself, the crew (if you opt for one), and standard equipment. But beyond that, there’s a menu of options.

Want a chef to dish out culinary magic? That’s extra. Dreaming of water toys like jet skis or paddleboards? Add them to the bill. Fuel, dockage fees, and sometimes even food and beverages usually come as additional costs. However, some luxury charters do offer packages that are truly all-inclusive, covering everything from your meals to marina fees.

The key takeaway? Always read the fine print and ask questions. Know what’s included and factor that into your budget.

With so many amazing places to explore in the Caribbean that are easily reachable by boat, it’s pretty clear why private Caribbean yacht charters are so popular. On your own boat you’ll have the freedom to tailor your journey to your specific tastes and timeline. Plus, you won’t have to share deck room with anyone but your posse and the crew. So what are you waiting for? Pack your flip-flops and charter a yacht in the Caribbean!

Windward Islands

The Caribbean is a year-round destination, but the best time to go on a yacht charter is during the high season from December to April. This is when the weather is at its best, with clear skies, calm seas, and warm temperatures. However, this is also the busiest time, so be sure to book your charter well in advance. The low season from May to November is known for its occasional rain showers, but it's also a great time to find deals and avoid the crowds.

Weather Considerations and Navigating the Hurricane Season

Understanding the Caribbean's tropical climate, which includes sudden rainfalls even in high season, is crucial for planning your Caribbean yacht charter. The hurricane season runs from June to November, offering lower prices but requiring flexible travel plans due to potential disruptions. Most charter companies provide insurance or guarantees for hurricane-related issues.

Special Events and Festivals

The Caribbean hosts numerous festivals and events throughout the year, which can be a delightful addition to your yacht charter experience. Planning your trip around events like the St. Barth's Bucket Regatta or Antigua Sailing Week can add an exciting dimension to your holiday.

Take a journey into the beautiful blue waters of the Caribbean with a yacht charter to Anguilla . Flying directly into any significant airport on this quaint island is impossible. However, chartering a yacht offers visitors easy access to some of the region's best beaches.

Antigua and Barbuda

Antigua and Barbuda are excellent destinations for a private yacht rental Caribbean . With its crystal-clear waters, white-sand beaches, and lush vegetation, Antigua is a paradise. Trade winds make the temperatures comfortable.

Whether you're looking to relax or party in the Leeward Islands, Antigua and Barbuda has something for everyone. Visitors can enjoy snorkeling, deep-sea fishing, jet skiing, exploring historic sites from colonial times, or indulging in world-class cuisine.

This country has more than 365 beaches.

St. Vincent & The Grenadines

St. Vincent is a great place to enjoy the sun and swim in the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. You can relax on powdery white sand beaches. Or stroll to discover a waterfall cascading from a cave covered in ferns within a lush, green forest.

Or you can explore historic sites like the Falls of Baleine or Queen Elizabeth Park Botanical Gardens. There is also no shortage of water activities, including snorkeling, scuba diving, and fishing!

Guadeloupe | Caribbean Charters

Guadeloupe is the Caribbean yacht charter of choice. The best time to visit Guadeloupe in the Leeward Islands is between December and April. At that time, it's warmer, and rainfall is at its lowest.

The eastern coast of Guadeloupe has long stretches of white sand beaches. It's an ideal place for taking a stroll and enjoying the sights of palm trees and warm waves on either side.

St. Lucia offers a plethora of highlights for travelers seeking a unique experience. One of the main highlights is the majestic Pitons, two volcanic peaks that rise dramatically from the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. These UNESCO World Heritage Sites are a paradise for hikers and nature lovers, offering breathtaking views and opportunities to explore the lush rainforests and abundant wildlife.

Anchoring in the bay below the Pitons is one of the most outstanding views to behold.

Another highlight of St. Lucia is its vibrant cultural heritage. The island is known for its lively festivals and events, such as the annual St. Lucia Jazz Festival and the colorful carnival celebrations. St. Lucia's rich history and friendliness make it a truly captivating destination.

In addition, there are two excellent marinas on the island. The Rodney Bay Marina and the marinas in Marigot Bay. Margot Bay is very scenic and special.

St. Martin and St. Maarten Caribbean Charters

The island is located approximately 90 miles east of Puerto Rico. Saint Martin is a captivating destination, blending French charm with Dutch influences. In addition to visiting the quaint towns, there are many beaches on the French side. Notably, there are also many great culinary experiences on the island's French side.

St. Kitts and Nevis

With only 101 square miles, St. Kitts and Nevis is the smallest country in North America. Explore the beautiful beaches or search for wildlife like dolphins and whales. A private yacht cruise around these islands is the perfect way to see them.

How do I get started?

There are a few necessary parameters to consider. For example, what type of boat, your destination, the time of year, and who will accompany you. The questions below can help guide your thought process, and your CKIM yacht charter broker will assist in asking the right questions and providing the expertise to design the perfect experience for you.

Without a doubt, among the top 10 Caribbean yacht charter destinations is Nature’s Little Secret.

• St. Maarten and St. Martin: Only the British Virgin Islands are a more popular sailing destination in the Caribbean than St. Martin.

Are children allowed on yacht charters?

How much does it cost to charter a yacht?

There are many things to consider and first time charterers can be left confused, that's why we've created a comprehensive guide to yacht charter prices (with a checklist).

The good news: It’s easy to grasp the basics of yacht charter pricing. And with one of our experts in your corner, we can help you more accurately estimate the cost of your next once-in-a-lifetime vacation.

The cost of a yacht charter is dependent on a number of factors, including the type of yacht, the charter destination, local taxes, and the base cost. (If the yacht has a celebrity owner, well that too, can add to the cost.)

Therefore, yacht charters have a wide range of base prices. That’s why charters can cost from $10,000 per week on smaller sailing yachts and catamarans, up to $150,000+ per week on the most luxurious motor superyachts.

What else can you expect to pay? This overview – a part of our planning resource, the Charter Advice Guide – offers an in-depth look at charter yacht costs.

Yacht Charter Price Structure: “All-Inclusive” vs “Plus Expenses”

In the world of yachting, two types of crewed yacht charters are available to you – “All-Inclusive” and “Plus Expenses” charter experiences. What do these terms mean exactly? Here’s a quick look:

• All-Inclusive Yacht Charters – Some charters (mainly catamaran and monohull charters in the Virgin Islands) offer all-inclusive rates. That means rates are based on the number of guests, and they include all food and drink, water sports, and fuel costs. Dockage and taxes, though, are usually charged separately.
• Plus Expenses Charters – Rates for larger motor yachts do not include running expenses, which must be paid separately. For these luxury charters, the base price is for the yacht only. Additional expenses, i.e. food, bar, fuel, dockage, port taxes, and other expenses, are charged separately. Most frequently, the running expenses are paid by an Advance Provisioning Allowance, or APA, which is typically 35% of the base price; this is an amount that’s paid prior to the charter.

Our chart below offers a quick overview of what’s included in both of these types of charters.

Average Yacht Charter Cost: Base Prices

What can you expect to pay for a catamaran, a sailing vessel, or motored yacht? Here’s a quick overview of the average cost to rent a yacht (not including extra expenses) for the most common types available:

Factors that Affect Yacht Charter Prices

Since charter yachts are privately owned, prices are set by the owner. This can explain, in part, the wide range of differences in price between boats of similar lengths. Yet, several other factors can significantly impact price, including:

• The Yacht – The year the boat was built, the builder, previous owners, and the boat’s selection of water toys can also increase the cost of a yacht. Boats can also develop a reputation, i.e. the largest or most luxurious, or having a famous builder or previous owner. Reputation can also affect pricing.
• Season – Prices typically increase in the high season – i.e. high summer in the Mediterranean or winter in the Caribbean – and decrease in low seasons.
• Destination – Your charter destination also plays a role in charter cost. For example, prices increase in areas without large charter fleets (i.e. the Galapagos), whereas Bahamas yacht charters,   BVI charters , or Mediterranean yacht charter are priced more competitively.

Additional Costs Considerations on Yacht Charter

In addition to the cost associated with running the yacht and provisioning, there are a number of other costs that must be considered. These are the most significant:

Advanced Provisioning Allowance

The APA on Plus Expenses charters equals roughly 35% of the yacht’s base price. This is a fee that’s collected prior to charter, and it’s similar to an expense account the captain can access during the charter. At the end of the charter, you will receive a detailed accounting of your APA account, plus any unused APA funds in cash.

In the case of overages, you may be required to replenish the APA account during the charter. This can be done with cash, although many choose to set up accounts with their charter brokers , which can be accessed if requested by the captain.

Taxes and Value Added Tax (VAT)

Most boats – whether all-inclusive or Plus Expenses – will not include local taxes or a Value Added Tax into their charter rate. The charterer will be responsible for paying those taxes. Taxes range significantly by destination; here’s a look at some of yachting’s most popular destinations:

• The Bahamas – Tax: 4% plus 10% VAT
• BVI – Tax: between $6 and $16 per person per day, depending on the flag of the boat
• Croatia – VAT: 13%
• Florida – Tax: 6% for Broward County, 7% for Miami-Dade County
• France – VAT: 20%, however, 10% can be applied when an itinerary includes International Waters
• Greece – VAT: 12%
• Italy – VAT: 22%, however 6.6% (over 24m) and 8.8% (under 24m) can be applied when an itinerary includes International Waters
• Montenegro – NO VAT
• New England – NO TAX
• Spain – VAT: 21%
• Turkey – NO VAT

Charterers can purchase cancellation and curtailment insurance – which is similar to traveler’s insurance. This insurance can help cover costs if a charterer must cancel or shorten the charter. Charter brokers can help you weigh insurance options, and often offer several different options.

Crew Gratuity

While crew gratuity is certainly not mandatory, it is recommended, particularly if you were truly impressed with your charter experience. In general, crew gratuity is roughly 15-20% of the base charter rate, which is handed to the captain at the conclusion of your charter.

Delivery Fees

While these fees do not apply on most charters, you may be asked to pay delivery costs if you are not chartering in the yacht’s normal cruising ground. In most cases, you will only be required to cover the fuel for the trip.

Additional Charter Cost FAQs

What are standard private charter yacht prices?

There are a number of factors that affect charter yacht pricing. However, on average, a week-long private yacht charter costs anywhere from $10,000 on luxurious sailing yachts and catamarans, and up to $150,000 for superyachts.

What affects charter yacht prices?

There are several things that influence how much your yacht charter will cost. The type of vessel, charter destination, length of trip, base cost, time of year, and local taxes all make a difference.

How much does it cost for a crewed vessel?

Charter yacht prices do increase when hiring a crew along with the boat. At Worldwide Boat, we offer two types of crewed charter experiences: all-inclusive and plus expenses. An all-inclusive charter yacht includes accommodation for all guests, food and drink, water sport activities, and fuel costs – dockage fees and taxes are charged separately. A plus expenses experience accounts for just the yacht’s base price. Things like food, drinks, fuel, dockages, taxes, and other expenses are charged separately and are usually estimated to be about 35% of the base price.

What’s included in all-inclusive boat charters?

At Worldwide Boat, your all-inclusive charter experience includes a diligent and friendly crew, water toys, food, drinks, fuel, water and electric services, and occasionally diving experiences.

What are some additional charter boat costs to consider?

After finding a base price you’re comfortable with and evaluating your package, you’ll also want to consider delivery fees, crew gratuity, insurance fees, taxes, and Advanced Provisioning Allowance rates. If you are responsible for these fees, your crew will handle the necessary transactions on your behalf.

What does it cost to rent a 100- foot yacht charter?

This depends on what type of vessel you’re looking at and how long you’ll need it for. The average weekly cost of a 100-foot sailing yacht is between $50,000-100,000. A weekly 80-foot catamaran charter runs around $40,000-100,000, and a week-long 100-foot motor yacht rental is anywhere between $50,000-80,000.

Does the price to rent a yacht change depending on what type of boat it is?

Yes. Worldwide Boat offers sailing yachts, catamarans, and motor yachts. All of these vessels have different capabilities, but there are other factors that determine the price beyond what type of boat you choose. The year the boat was built, owner, availability of water toys, onboard amenities, and the ship’s reputation can all change how much the ship is priced at.

When is the high season for yacht charters?

The price of a yacht fluctuates depending on the season. A Mediterranean yacht charter cost rises in the summer and drops in the winter, whereas Caribbean boat charter prices are high during the winter and lower in the summer months.

How does my destination affect charter yacht cost?

The more remote an area is, the more expensive it will be to charter a yacht there. That’s because prices go up in areas that have fewer boats. If you were to travel somewhere like the Galapagos, which isn’t a typical yacht destination, you’d pay more than you would if you were traveling to the Caribbean.

How much do I tip the crew when reviewing my yacht charter expenses?

It’s not required that you tip your crew, but it is recommended and appreciated. If you had an enjoyable experience it’s considered polite to tip your crew anywhere from 15-20% at the end of your charter.

Plus Expenses Power & Mega Yachts/Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA):

If the yacht is listed as '+ expenses': Larger power yachts are often plus expenses (we will notify you if the yacht is plus expenses in our quote). This means that addition to the charter fee you will also be asked to pay an Advance Provisioning Allowance of 25-30% of the charter fee. This is given to the yacht in cash prior to your charter to allow the Captain to buy fuel and provision the yacht with food and drinks per your preferences.

You will either be refunded excess money not used or asked to pay any additional costs which exceeded the Advance Provisioning Allowance.

Can everyone afford a yachting vacation? Caribbean yacht charter prices can fit most budgets. The costs of chartering in the Caribbean vary based on the type of yacht, number of guests, location, and season. Don’t miss out on summer discounts—they could make your dream yacht vacation more affordable than you think!

With Charter the Caribbean, you’ll have the advantage of knowing the charter rates right from the start. When we provide a quote, your budget will play a pivotal role in shaping your unforgettable adventure.

Factors Influencing Caribbean Yacht Charter Prices

Yacht type and size.

Larger yachts have higher charter rates. These vessels offer more space, comfort, and amenities. For instance, luxury motor yachts are usually more expensive than sailing yachts. Motor yachts offer speed and stability, while sailing yachts provide a classic, wind-powered experience.

For smaller yachts, charter prices are around $20,000 per week, while larger vessels can cost more than $100,000 per week. Group charters are an excellent way to split the charter fee, making your journey both affordable and memorable.

Charter Season

The Caribbean is a year-round tropical paradise with gentle trade winds and warm weather, perfect for yachting. Charter fees fluctuate based on the time of year. So, when you should charter a yacht?

• High season : High season for yacht charters in the Caribbean are Christmas and New Year’s holidays and may include Thanksgiving for some yachts. The rest of the winter, spring and summer the rates are normal. The British Virgin Islands are especially popular during this time.
• Low season : The low season offer quiet anchorages, warm weather and occasional rain showers, with more affordable yacht charter rates. Grenada and Martinique are the top destinations during this sailing season.

Please note that hurricanes may occur from June to November. During this period, many yachts in the Caribbean undergo maintenance.

Duration of Charter

Most Caribbean yacht charters offer a week-long vacation at sea, striking a balance between exploration and relaxation. If you’re looking for a more immersive experience, consider a long-term charter. This option allows you to explore more islands, anchorages, and hidden gems. However, extending your charter beyond a week will increase the overall cost.

Provisioning is crucial for longer yacht charters, usually 20 to 50% of the charter fee. This covers fuel, food, beverages, marina fees, and other personal expenses. Any unused funds can be refunded at the end of the trip.

Destination and Itinerary

The idyllic spot you choose greatly influences the price. Some locations, like the British Virgin Islands , are more exclusive or popular.

Explore the stunning coves, bays, and beaches of the British Virgin Islands, and visit iconic spots such as Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, and Anegada. Since these islands are close to one another, you can enjoy short-distance cruising, allowing you to spend more time exploring and less time sailing between destinations. This also means you’ll use less fuel.

Local regulations and accessibility can also affect charter costs. Here are other destinations to consider for your Caribbean adventure:

• U.S. Virgin Islands (St. Thomas, St. John , and St. Croix)
• St. Kitts and Nevis
• St. Vincent and the Grenadines
• Trinidad and Tobago

Sail from the Virgin Islands to the Leeward Islands , enjoying white sand beaches and activities like fishing, hiking, and scuba diving. Then, head to the Windward Islands to explore mountains and beaches by yacht.

Onboard Amenities and Services

Yachts with high-end amenities like jacuzzis, water toys, and gourmet kitchens usually cost more. Spacious living areas and entertainment options also influence Caribbean yacht charter prices.

And if you’re on a crewed yacht, having experienced captains, chefs, and stewards contribute to higher costs. Alternatively, a bareboat charter might be a more affordable option.

Types of Charter Rates in the Caribbean

• Inclusive Charter Rate : Includes three daily meals, the ship’s bar (excluding premium beverages), water toys, and all onboard amenities.
• Caribbean Terms : These rates are inclusive, but exclude the ship’s bar and beverages. Taxes and fees may or may not be included.
• Plus Expenses: This charter rate is common for most motor yachts in the Caribbean. It covers a pre-paid deposit for operating expenses during your charter, including the Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) and VAT.

Some yachts offer crewed meal plan options, including full-board and half-board. These plans involve daily fees for meals per person.

Caribbean Prices: Comparison with Other Popular Yacht Charter Destinations

Factors affecting charter prices are similar across Bahamas, Caribbean, and Mediterranean Yacht Charters but differ in inclusions.

Most Caribbean yacht charters are all-inclusive, covering yacht rental, crew salaries, meals, fuel, and water toys. Costs vary based on the number of guests, with larger groups incurring higher fees.

In Croatia, the base charter rate remains fixed, covering only the yacht rental itself. Additional expenses, such as provisions, fuel, marina fees, crew gratuities, and any extras, are separate.

Chartering in the Bahamas can be either inclusive or plus-expenses, depending on the type of boat.

Price Ranges for Caribbean Yacht Charters

• Budget-Friendly Options : Ranging from $15,000 to $25,000 per week. Examples include MANNA, SOMEWHERE HOT, and LADY CATRON.
• Mid-Range Charters : Offering moderate luxury from $25,000 to $50,000 and beyond. Examples include SAVARONA, AUGUST MAVERICK, and TRU NORTH.
• Luxury Charters : Premium yachts with high-end services and amenities costing over $100,000 per week, Examples include HYPERION and JUST ENOUGH.

How to Find the Best Deals

During the summer months, the Caribbean sees an influx of last-minute offers . You can enjoy up to 20% discounts on certain yachts for a week-long adventure. Also, keep an eye out for available dates.

While early booking doesn’t always guarantee lower rates, it’s crucial during peak seasons. It’s best to secure your preferred yacht and itinerary well in advance.

Caribbean Yacht Charter Prices: Tips for Budgeting and Planning

Setting a budget is essential for a luxury yacht charter in the Caribbean. Ensure you understand both the included costs and any additional expenses, such as gratuities, relocation fees, and taxes. These amounts can vary depending on the charter location and may change.

To get the best deal, compare boat prices and consult with charter brokers before making your decision. At CKIM, we also recommend purchasing travel insurance for added protection.
