Introduction

Why charter a yacht in Corfu.

A luxury yacht charter Corfu 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 Corfu 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 Corfu — 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 Corfu 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 Corfu charter.

  • Secure your restaurant reservations in Agni Bay well in advance, especially for waterfront tables at Toula's or Agni Taverna.
  • For genuine Corfiot cuisine, venture beyond the main tourist areas; look for tavernas in villages like Kinopiastes or Doukades.
  • While in Corfu Town, explore the labyrinthine alleys of the 'Campiello' within the Old Town for artisan shops and hidden cafes.
  • Visit the Achilleion Palace early in the morning to avoid the tour bus crowds and experience its grandeur more peacefully.
  • When anchoring off Antipaxos, deploy fenders on the tender as other boats will likely raft up for swimming.
  • Consider a private olive oil tasting tour in a local estate for an authentic cultural and culinary experience.
  • Water conditions on the west coast of Corfu can change rapidly; always consult local forecasts before planning anchorages there.
  • Engage a local guide for a walking tour of Corfu Town for historical insights often missed by independent explorers.
Team Pick

A personal recommendation from Tomás.

Anchorage
Voutoumi Beach, Antipaxos
Antipaxos
For sheer, breathtaking beauty, Voutoumi Beach on Antipaxos is unparalleled. The clarity and colour of the water must be experienced. Arrive early to truly appreciate its serene splendour before the day-trippers arrive. It is arguably the best swimming spot in the entire Ionian.

Questions

Corfu yacht charter FAQs.

How much does a luxury yacht charter in Corfu cost?+
Weekly rates in Corfu 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 Corfu?+
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 Corfu.
Do I need a sailing licence to charter a yacht in Corfu?+
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 Corfu?+
The prime window in Corfu 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 Corfu?+
Yes. Every crewed yacht we recommend in Corfu 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 Corfu?+
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 Corfu?+
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 Corfu 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 Corfu 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.
