Starting from€490,000per week
Introduction
Why charter a yacht in Capri.
A luxury yacht charter Capri rewards guests with a combination you cannot replicate from a hotel: total privacy, an itinerary that flexes around your party, and access to coves, restaurants and reefs that road-bound travellers simply never see. Blue Ocean Club curates Capri cruises across motor yachts, sailing yachts, catamarans and superyachts — every option live-priced against the global live availability feed and presented with our 100% best-price guarantee.
Charter a luxury yacht for Capri — crewed motor yachts, sailing yachts and catamarans from Blue Ocean Club with real-time availability for 2026. Days unfold at the pace of the sea: long swims off the platform, lunch at a beach club where your concierge has held the best table, an afternoon cruise to a quieter anchorage, cocktails on the bow as the light softens. The captain rewrites tomorrow's plan based on tonight's weather and your party's mood.
We work with a small list of crewed yacht charter Capri operators we know personally — captains we have cruised with, chefs whose tasting menus we have eaten, stewardesses who know your children's names by the end of day one. The result is a charter that feels less like a booking and more like a private invitation.

Local Insider Tips
Insider knowledge for your Capri charter.
- Secure marina reservations well in advance, especially for Marina Grande, as summer capacity is extremely limited.
- Utilise the yacht's tender extensively for exploring Capri's grottoes and accessing secluded coves.
- Book restaurants and beach clubs on Capri at least three months ahead for peak season. Spontaneity is rare.
- Engage a local guide for bespoke island tours to discover hidden gems and avoid tourist crowds.
- Explore Capri's less-frequented hiking trails, such as the Via Krupp, for unparalleled panoramic views.
- Learn a few basic Italian phrases; it is always appreciated, particularly in smaller establishments.
- Do not miss a limoncello tasting on Capri, but opt for artisanal producers over mass-market brands.
- Be aware of the ZTL (Zona a Traffico Limitato) restrictions for vehicles on Capri; rely on taxis or funicular.
Team Pick
A personal recommendation from Christoph.
Anchorage
Grotta Verde (Capri)
Capri, southwest coast
“For sheer natural beauty and a moment of unparalleled serenity, I consistently recommend an early morning anchorage in the Grotta Verde. The water's luminescence is truly captivating, and arriving before the day-trippers allows for a private, magical swim. It is a quintessential Caprese experience that many overlook in favour of the Blue Grotto.”

Questions
Capri yacht charter FAQs.
How much does a luxury yacht charter in Capri cost?+
Weekly rates in Capri typically range from €25,000 for a mid-size sailing yacht or catamaran up to €350,000+ for a 50m superyacht. Final cost depends on yacht size, age, season and the inclusion of expenses such as fuel, dockage and provisioning (APA). Blue Ocean Club presents a fully transparent quotation with our 100% best-price guarantee.
What is the best yacht type for Capri?+
Motor yachts cover longer distances quickly and suit guests who prioritise interior comfort. Catamarans offer stability, generous deck space and shallow draft access to coves. Classic sailing yachts deliver the most authentic experience. For families and groups of eight or more we frequently recommend a 25–40m motor yacht or large catamaran in Capri.
Do I need a sailing licence to charter a yacht in Capri?+
No. Every yacht we present is a crewed charter — captain, chef, deckhand and stewardess are included. You arrive, embark, and the crew handles navigation, meals, water toys and concierge logistics.
What is included in a crewed yacht charter?+
The base charter fee covers the yacht itself, the professional crew, their wages, insurance and the use of all standard water toys on board. Fuel, food, beverages, dockage, port taxes and concierge bookings are settled through an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) — typically 25–35% of the charter fee — with unused funds returned at the end of the cruise.
When is the best time of year to charter a yacht in Capri?+
The prime window in Capri runs late May through early October, when the sea is warm, the wind reliable and the coast at its most photogenic. Shoulder months offer excellent value and noticeably quieter anchorages.
Can you arrange a private chef and tailored menus on board in Capri?+
Yes. Every crewed yacht we recommend in Capri carries a professional chef. We share a detailed preference sheet ahead of your charter — covering dietary requirements, favourite wines, children's menus, dinner-party concepts and shore-side restaurant reservations — so the galley is provisioned to your taste before you step aboard.
How far in advance should I book a yacht in Capri?+
For peak weeks (mid-July to late-August in the Mediterranean, Christmas and Easter in the Caribbean) the best yachts are typically reserved 6–9 months ahead. Shoulder-season weeks can be confirmed comfortably 1–3 months out. Our real-time availability feed surfaces last-minute openings as they appear.
Are children welcome on board?+
Absolutely. Many of our crews are highly experienced with families — child-safe netting, paddleboards, sea-bobs, inflatable toys and tailored menus are routinely arranged. We can also organise a dedicated nanny or tutor on request.
What water toys and tenders are typically available in Capri?+
Standard inventories include a tender (often 6–9m), seabobs, e-foils, jet-skis, paddleboards, wakeboards, snorkelling gear and inflatable platforms. Larger yachts carry diving equipment, jet-surfs, submarines and full PADI-rated dive teams.
Can you arrange helicopter, jet or private transfers?+
Yes. We routinely arrange door-to-yacht transfers — private jet, helicopter, chauffeured car or marina pick-up — so your party steps from runway to passerelle without friction.
Is gratuity included in the Capri charter fee?+
Crew gratuity is customary and discretionary, typically 5–15% of the base charter fee, settled at the end of the cruise in cash or by transfer. We provide clear guidance ahead of disembarkation.
What happens if the weather turns during my Capri charter?+
Your captain monitors forecasts continuously and adjusts the itinerary to keep you on calm water and in beautiful anchorages. The cruising plan is always flexible — a charter is a route sketch, not a fixed schedule.
