A yacht charter in Sardinia is and has been for centuries one of the most sought-after places for sea cruisers.
Located around 350 miles west of the Italian peninsula, Sardinia acts a buffer region between the European and African continents.
At 9,305 sq. miles, it closely follows Sicily at the 2nd spot on the list of the largest islands in the Mediterranean. Sardinia has accumulated and stitched together numerous cultures from different generations. Its beautiful coastline is aptly complemented by the rich cultural legacy of the place, carefully orchestrated by centuries of multiculturalism of this island which you will discover via a vacation in Sardinia.

Discover Sardinia with a vessel of your choice
- Crewed & Bareboat Catamaran
The aristocrats of Europe have been vacationing on this beautiful island from as early as the 1800s. The reason catamarans are an ideal travel partner for them on these shores is that they are highly maneuverable and built for speed. It draws stability not from weighted ballast but from its wide beam, which makes this vessel considerably lighter than its counterparts. These catamarans are decidedly advantageous on the rock scattered shoreline of Sardinia. Catamarans are luxury vessels of the highest order that you can find from any holiday in Sardinia. Most of them are over 10 meters in length, providing ample space to relish the ocean unobstructed.
- Crewed Motor Yacht
The modern development in yachting has been the introduction of motor yachts with fuel or electric powered engine for easy navigation on calm waters. The materials used in construction have also undergone a significant overhaul. Modern motor yachts are made primarily with fiberglass, steel, ferrocement, aluminum, and even steel.
Based on your individual requirements, you may choose to cruise motor yachts that are between 7 and 14 meters long. These can accommodate 4-6 people easily. For a larger group, luxury crewed motor yachts that are over 30 meters in length and have all the space you need for a deluxe passage through the ocean are recommended.
- Skippered & Bareboat Sailboat
Proximity to 2 entirely distinct types of water-masses, the Gulf of Genoa to the north and the Atlantic to the south ensure that the coast of Sardinia is always windy. That makes sailboats a preferred mode in Sardinia.
The first thing that immediately comes to mind when one mentions sailboats is their efficiency. Sailboats are entirely or partially propelled by wind, which makes them a green option as well. However, one would be mistaken to think that comfort is sacrificed on the altar of efficiency in sailboats. While that would have been true half a century ago, modern skippered or bareboat sailboats come replete with many avenues of luxury. Their sizes have seen a significant upgrade as well, with some vessels as large as 25-30 meters, easily capable of accommodating 10-12 people.
Should you choose a skippered service, you’ll have a skillful captain for a company who knows the ins and outs of the island and its shores. For a solo adventure, try bareboat charters, conditional on your production of a sailing license.
Now you have quite a few options of boat charter in Sardinia to choose from, right?
