Bareboat Yacht Charter

With bareboat yacht charter you can hire and sail the boat yourself together with your family or friends. Plot your own route around the many picturesque bays, little harbours, town quays and fishing villages scattered throughout the beautiful Ionian Island sailing areas. Spend as long as you like anchored in a peaceful bay, return to your favourite places over and over, or discover something new each day.

You skipper the yacht yourself and plan your own routes with the freedom to explore wherever you want and then return your yacht to us at the end of your bareboat yacht charter holiday.

Support on your Bareboat Yacht Charter

If you chose a bareboat yacht charter with Island Sailing this does not mean you are sent off without any support, it just means you are free to do what you like, when you like.

Whilst sailing bareboat you have 24/7 communication with us via radio or mobile phone and in the unlikely event of you needing support, backup is provided by a large rib we are always available should you ever need our assistance.
A weather text will be sent each morning and we are always at the end of the phone and VHF.
Whist you plan your own routes we are happy to offer any suggestions and can provide advice on the Ionian islands sailing area from the best anchorages and beaches to great restaurants and tavernas.
We offer free stern to mooring assistance at the start of your sailing holiday and also provide free stern to mooring practice sessions on Mondays - popular with sailors who are seeking a refresher or those new to Mediterranean mooring.
You will receive a comprehensive handover of your yacht including its operation and all of the equipment aboard. On board you will have a comprehensive sailing guide to the area, as well as the Heikell Guide and all necessary charts and navigation aids, including Raymarine chartplotters.
