Can I book SONISHI for a single day?

Many yachts are available for day charters (8–10 hours) in Ibiza, Mallorca, Monaco, Saint-Tropez and Dubai. Weekly-contracted superyachts may require a full-week minimum in July/August, but shoulder-season and last-minute windows often allow shorter bookings.

How much does a day charter yacht cost?

Indicative day rates: 15–20m motor yacht €1,500–€5,000/day; 20–30m luxury yacht €5,000–€15,000/day; 30–40m+ superyacht €15,000–€50,000+/day. VAT, fuel and crew gratuity are billed separately.

Why is there a weekly minimum in high season?

Fixed costs (crew, insurance, dockage, mobilisation) are the same for one day as for a week. Owners therefore protect peak July/August windows with a 1-week minimum; shoulder season typically drops to 3–4 days.

Which ports are best for day charter yachts?

Ibiza, Mallorca, Monaco, Saint-Tropez and Dubai have the strongest day-charter inventory and infrastructure for 8–10 hour itineraries.

A note from your charter specialist

“SONISHI is one of those rare yachts that feels different the moment you step aboard. The 40.1m Sunseeker build hits a sweet spot — big enough to feel like a private floating villa, intimate enough that the crew remembers how you take your morning coffee by day two. Happy to walk you through a week on board personally — there are a few details that don't make it onto any spec sheet.”
