And a Power yacht charter from Athens provides the freedom and speed you need to see more of this majestic cruising ground.
With sensational weather, one of the richest histories of any country in the world, and incredible food, Greece is one of the most magical places to sail a yacht. Greece enjoys stunning weather, with sizzling temperatures of up to 89 degrees Fahrenheit in Athens.
Whether you’re on the family vacation of a lifetime, a romantic couples yacht charter or celebrating with friends, Greece has a treasure trove of wonders to uncover. From stunning Corfu to historic Athens, discover our bases and start planning your yacht charter around Greece today.
Everyone at the Athens base made the process as easy as possible. We were given a clean and prepared boat, the staff was fantastic and the experience reaffirmed my commitment to charter with the Moorings again!
We were very pleased with the seamless transition from the airport pick up to the dock at Corfu to meeting our Captain and the experience and itinerary he created for us. It was a wonderful holiday. I would recommend it highly to others.
