Who CARTE BLANCHE suits
Ferretti motor yacht CARTE BLANCHE is well suited to small families or groups of friends wanting a relaxed island cruise. With an overall length of 17.4 m, she accommodates six guests overnight across two cabins, supported by a crew of two. Her layout encourages laid-back days on the water, whether spending energetic afternoons exploring bays with the paddleboard and seabob, rinsing off at the outdoor shower, or cooling down indoors in comfort with air conditioning.
Against comparable options in Greece, CARTE BLANCHE presents an attractive profile. Her length sits similar to other charter yachts in the destination, and she welcomes the same number of guests. She is newer by build year than similar vessels in the region, whilst her weekly rate remains similar, making her an appealing modern choice for cruising these historic waters.
The best season to cruise aboard CARTE BLANCHE in Greece and the East Mediterranean spans the balmy summer period. July and August bring glorious sunshine and warm seas, whilst June and September provide pleasant cruising weather with quieter anchorages. She remains available throughout the winter across Greece and the East Mediterranean for charters during the cooler months.

Cruising Greece: when to go and where to anchor
Best time
The charter season runs from April to October. Peak activity occurs in July and August, coinciding with high temperatures and the Meltemi wind in the Aegean. May, June, September, and October offer milder weather and lower traffic. The Ionian Sea generally experiences lighter winds than the Aegean, while the Saronic Gulf provides sheltered conditions. Early and late season bookings are recommended for quieter anchorages and more moderate sailing conditions.
Practical tips
- Most charters start at the Athens-area marinas (Alimos, Flisvos, Lavrio), about 30–50 minutes by car from Athens airport.
- Entry into Greek ports often requires stern-to mooring; ensure the crew is briefed on anchor deployment and line handling.
- Water supplies can be limited on smaller islands; monitor consumption and refill tanks at every opportunity in marinas.
Anchorages to know
- Lakka, PaxosA wide, horseshoe-shaped bay featuring a shallow sandy bottom, typically ranging from two to four metres in depth.
- Hydra HarbourA historic port on a vehicle-free island, requiring stern-to mooring in a tight, bustling harbour environment.
- Ormos Kleftiko, MilosA bay defined by white volcanic rock formations and sea caves, accessible only by boat.
- Gaios, PaxosA narrow, fjord-like inlet providing a sheltered natural harbour protected by the islet of Agios Nikolaos.
