Why: Choose a Mediterranean Yacht Charter?

Mediterranean yacht charter vacations are always by far and away the most popular summer location. You can read hundreds of our client endorsements here . Think the French Riviera, Monaco, Italy, Croatia, Sardinia, Spain and Greece. This is where most of the large crewed superyachts are concentrated and this is where also where you will find a huge variety of interesting places and cultures to experience. The Mediterranean (or Med’ for short) has everything. The area covers a large diversity of countries, cultures landscapes and experiences. Yet, the fantastic thing is that they are relatively close together, so you can create convenient and action packed itineraries very easily. On top of this, the yachting infrastructure in Europe is second to none so there are dozens of beautiful marinas filled with beautiful private superyachts and mega yachts that can be chartered as well as all the shops, restaurants, bars and conveniences that you could need. Because of its popularity the Mediterranean has an incredible choice of charter boats available to rent, both motor (power) yachts and sailing yachts, including the ever more widespread large luxury private superyacht charters.

How Much Does it Cost To Charter a Yacht in The Mediterranean?

Mediterranean yacht charter prices vary according to the size, style and age of the yacht. Our luxury superyacht charter yachts rent from 30,000 Euro to over 1,000,000 per week, plus expenses, in the form of an advanced provisioning allowance (APA). Conversely, smaller 'all inclusive' type vacations cost between Euro 15,000 to 50,000 per week. Here is the full list of all the charter yachts and here are the current Mediterranean yachts with special discounted prices .

Timing & Weather: The Mediterranean Yachting Season

The Mediterranean yachting season generally runs from April to the end of October. During the height of the season, in July and August, the climate is warm and sunny and the winds tend to be light. While this is the high season for all tourism, you can still easily avoid onshore tourists while afloat. The weather can also be good during the shoulder seasons.

Tip: Shoulder Season Means Value & Choice

Another good time to charter your yacht is generally on either of the shoulder seasons from April-May and September-October. These periods fall each side of the main summer season when the temperatures are still comfortable. September, for instance, is an underrated time of the year because the weather is usually good (if not too hot) but the sea is at its maximum temperature which is ideal for swimming. At this time there is greater choice of berths and anchorages for your boating vacation and the onshore tourists are not present in their largest numbers.

Italy's Luna Rossa eliminates American Magic from the America's Cup

Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli has eliminated NYYC American Magic and advanced to the challenger’s final of the America’s Cup

BARCELONA, Spain -- Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli eliminated NYYC American Magic on Thursday and advanced to the challenger’s final of the America’s Cup .

Luna Rossa won the series 5-3 after a flawless and fast regatta where the Italian yacht finished a minute ahead of its American rival.

“We are super happy. It has been a fantastic journey in this semifinal and we are ready for more,” port helmsman Francesco Bruni said.

Luna Rossa had led the series 4-0 before American Magic made it interesting by scoring three consecutive victories.

INEOS Britannia awaits the Italian yacht in the Louis Vuitton Cup challenger’s final that will begin on Sept. 26. That will be a rematch of the 2021 matchup that Luna Rossa won.

The winner of the series faces defending champion Team Emirates New Zealand in the America’s Cup final next month.

Luna Rossa sealed the win over the Americans a day after it gifted them their third victory, when some rigging broke free on the Italian yacht and left it disabled in the Mediterranean.

But the shore crew fixed the malfunction on the mainsail overnight.

Luna Rossa took the lead in the decider when it cut behind its rival on the first of six legs and never looked back. The Americans were 700 meters behind when the winner crossed the finish line.

“I would just like to mention American Magic for putting up a hell of a fight. They are a champion team and showed it,” Luna Rossa's starboard helmsman Jimmy Spithill said. “This victory has to go to the shore team. They worked all night and this morning looked like a bunch of zombies.”

Luna Rossa swept the Americans 4-0 at the same stage in the 2021 America’s Cup held in Auckland, New Zealand.

The Americans faced adversity this time around when experienced helmsman Paul Goodison was unable to race in the series after he fell on the boat and cracked some ribs. Lucas Calabrese took his place and performed admirably, according to co-helm Tom Slingsby, despite his limited hours in the super foiling yacht.

American Magic needed to win the two races scheduled on Thursday to advance.

“Huge congratulations to Luna Rossa, the better team won,” Slingsby said. “We've got to hold our heads high, as much as I am stewing on some bad decisions in that race. But given where we were last week, we had a huge improvement in that short time.”

A former captain of the Bayesian has described the terrifying obstacles facing those trapped in the cabins as the Bayesian superyacht overturned killing seven.

Stephen Edwards, who captained the Bayesian for five years until 2020, told The Telegraph : “Those who stayed curled up in bed were in the worst situation.

“The storm hit hard, placing them in the melee of flying furniture, glass and other items,” he said adding he had spoken to traumatised crew members.

“Inside the cabins, the only way to think of this is that people were lying in their beds one minute, and the next the room was on its side, totally dark, with the door now either in the floor or in the ceiling above.”

It came as divers race to retrieve Mike Lynch’s personal hard drives locked in a safe on the ocean floor, according to reports.

Italian newspaper la Repubblica reported that the tech billionaire, whose clients included MI5, the NSA and the Israeli secret service, didn’t trust confidential documents on the cloud and kept two encrypted hard drives in a safe which now lies 49 metres below sea level.

Former captain says surviving crewmembers all have PTSD from sinking

The former captain of the Bayesian superyacht says he has spoken to all of the surviving crew to hear their account of the sinking.

Stephen Edwards said all the crew members who were on deck rescued as many passengers as they could but that heading down towards the flooded lower parts of the yacht “would have meant certain death”.

The former captain told The Telegraph: “They are not doing very well”

“The dominant feeling is still one of shock from the event. They are dealing with what happened, how it happened and how quickly it happened.”

Bayesian yacht sinking: Banking boss among four victims who ‘suffocated in cabin air bubble’

Four of the victims of last month’s Bayesian yacht disaster died after oxygen ran out in an air bubble on the sunken vessel, it has been reported.

Autopsies over the past few days on four of those who died have revealed an absence of water in their lungs, suggesting they suffocated as the air became saturated with carbon dioxide, Italian publication La Repubblica said.

The outlet reported post-mortems showed four people died from “atypical drowning”, with “no water in their lungs, trachea and stomach”. There were no signs of external injuries.

HP looking to recoup £4billion from Mike Lynch’s estate despite Bayesian tragedy

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is making the “difficult decision” to pursue Mike Lynch’s estate for £4billion in the interests of shareholders despite the tech billionaire being killed along with his daughter on the Bayesian superyacht.

Antonio Neri, the former engineer turned chief executive at HPE, told the Financial Times : “Obviously my job as a representative of shareholders is to make the difficult decisions.

“These are difficult decisions. But in the end, we are making decisions in the best interest of shareholders.”

Mike Lynch had been celebrating his acquittal from criminal charges on the superyacht when it overturned in a freak storm.

But HPE intends to pursue damages around an earlier UK civil trial in 2022 which found in favor of HPE’s claim that Lynch and ex-CFO Sushovan Hussain had inflated the apparent value of Autonomy during the acquisition.

Seven people lost their lives in the sinking of a luxury yacht off the coast of Sicily

Bayesian captain said to be ‘living darkest days of his life'

Three crew members including the yacht’s captain are under investigation, with plans being discussed to raise the yacht from the ocean bed to assist enquiries.

Sources close to New Zealander James Cutfield, 51, the captain , told the Italian newspaper Corriere Della Sera that he is living through the darkest days of his life.

Among those killed were Mike Lynch and his 18-year-old daughter Hannah, who had been due to begin studying at Oxford University in September, the yacht’s chef and four other family friends and associates.

Mike Lynch ’s co-defendant Stephen Chamberlain died in hospital three days after being hit by a car on a country road, an inquest heard.

Mike Lynch ‘likely died of suffocation’ after running out of oxygen on sunken yacht

British tech tycoon Mike Lynch is likely to have died of suffocation after running out of oxygen, according to a source close to the investigation.

They cited initial examinations carried out on Saturday after the businessman’s body was recovered from the family yacht that sank off Sicily ’s coast last month during a freak weather incident.

Mr Lynch died alongside his 18-year-old daughter, the boat’s chef and four others , who were onboard the British-flagged superyacht Bayesian to celebrate his recent acquittal after a lengthy decade-long legal battle.

Initial results of examinations of Hannah Lynch’s body on Saturday were inconclusive, the source told the Reuters news agency.

Mike Lynch’s yacht was ‘unsinkable’, says boss of company who built boat

Giovanni Costantino, the chief executive of the Italian Sea Group, said there are no flaws with the design and construction of the Bayesian and it is “one of the safest boats in the world”.

The Bayesian, a 184-ft superyacht carrying 22 passengers and crew, was anchored off the port of Porticello, near Palermo, when it disappeared beneath the waves in a matter of minutes after a freak tornado struck.

“The ship sank because it took on water, from where investigators will have to say,” Mr Costantino told television news programme TG1.

He suggested that the sinking was down to a series of human errors.

The CEO said that had the crew shut all doors and hatches, turned on the engine, lifted the anchor, lowered the keel and turned the yacht to face the wind, they would have suffered “zero damage”.

He added that data showed it took 16 minutes from when the wind began for it to sink.

Cartoisio said the tragedy will be even more painful if the sinking was caused by “behaviours that were not aligned to the responsibilities that everyone needs to take in shipping”.

£4billion deal to purchase Mike Lynch’s Darktrace

Darktrace shares are set to stop trading publicly at the end of September, after the company set a timetable for its blockbuster private equity takeover to be completed.

The private equity group Thoma Bravo struck an almost 5.31 billion dollar (£4.3 billion) deal to buy Darktrace in April.

It marks one of the biggest take-private deals for a London-listed company in recent years, and will see Darktrace leave the FTSE 100 on October 1.

Founded in 2013, Cambridge-based Darktrace is a cybersecurity firm best known for using artificial intelligence to scan for hacks and data leaks inside IT networks.

A prominent company in the UK tech landscape, it was among the firms represented at the AI Safety Summit at Bletchley Park in November, where world leaders and major tech firms met to discuss the potential threat of artificial intelligence.

The update comes after Poppy Gustafsson stepped down as chief executive earlier in September amid the takeover.

Ms Gustafsson, who co-founded the business in 2013, will be replaced as chief executive by Jill Popelka, the company said.

Ms Gustafsson helped to set up the Cambridge-based company in 2013 alongside Autonomy founder Mike Lynch.

Mr Lynch, and his daughter Hannah, were among seven people to die after the Bayesian superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily last month.

Professor fears more deaths by ‘medicanes’ after Bayesian tragedy

Professor Yoav Yair, Dean of the School of Sustainability at Reichman University in Israel, told the Mirror that storms dubbed ‘medicanes’ - Mediterranean hurricanes - could cause similar sinkings like the Bayesian superyacht.

He said: “It is not a matter of if this (the Bayesian disaster) will happen again, but rather it’s when and where.

“In the last couple of years we have seen medicanes - which are a new phenomena. These are hurricane-like storms that pack a lot of energy, and create flash flooding, torrential rains, lightning, hail and severe sustained winds. The 2023 “Daniel” medicane destroyed Libya and caused over 30,000 deaths there.

“The sea surface temperature has risen globally and in the Med as well, charging the atmosphere with increased fluxes of water vapor, which means a higher potential for massive storms.”

Ex-officer in Tyre Nichols beating case texted photos, former girlfriend testifies

ABCNews logo

A former Memphis police officer on trial in the beating death of Tyre Nichols texted photos of a bloodied Nichols to his then-girlfriend, she said Wednesday during testimony.

Brittany Leake, an officer with the Memphis Police Department (MPD) who used to date Demetrius Haley, said Haley texted her and one of her family members a photo of Nichols that showed the 29-year-old leaning against a police care, bleeding from his mouth, wearing a torn shirt, appearing dirty and with his eyes closed, according to WATN, the ABC affiliate in Memphis covering the case in the courtroom.

Haley is on trial along with Justin Smith and Tadarrius Bean, who were charged on Sept. 12, 2023, with violating Nichols' civil rights through excessive use of force, unlawful assault, failing to intervene in the assault and failing to render medical aid. These charges carry a maximum penalty of life in prison, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. The officers have pleaded not guilty to all charges.

"I wasn't offended, but it was difficult to look at," Leake said, claiming she deleted the photo, according to WATN.

Leake said she told Haley that Nichols needed to go to the trauma center, according to WATN. She claimed Haley previously sent her other photos from his patrols, including pictures of a burned suspect. Leake testified that she has never sent photos from the job in her two years as an MPD officer because it is against department policy, according to WATN.

Prosecutors on Wednesday also called to the stand Jesse Guy, a former Memphis Fire Department paramedic who cared for Nichols on the scene and in the ambulance that transported him to St. Francis Hospital, according to WATN.

Guy said when he first arrived on the scene, an emergency medical technician (EMT) told him Nichols "just went out," according to WATN. Guy claimed he heard one of the officers say Nichols took something.

Guy testified that Nichols was unresponsive, had head swelling, scratches and marks around his neck and blood spilling from his mouth, according to WATN.

"It's time to go," Guy told prosecutors he was thinking after Nichols had no pulse and was unresponsive to Narcan, an overdose reversal drug, according to WATN. "I felt like something was going on."

Guy said he gave Nichols oxygen, intubated him, removed his wet clothes and attempted with no success to defibrillate his heart, according to WATN. After giving Nichols epinephrine, more oxygen and sodium bicarbonate, Guy said there was still no pulse.

"I was trying to save his life," Guy said, according to WATN.

Guy claimed he decided Nichols must go to the closest hospital to get better care, according to WATN. By the time they arrived at St. Francis Hospital, the former paramedic said they were able to get Nichols' heart beating again.

Guy noted that when he asked one of the officers involved in the encounter what happened, the officer responded with a sigh.

"Never mind," Guy said he told the officer because the paramedic thought the policeman was going to give him "B.S." according to WATN.

Guy said during cross-examination that EMTs on the scene when he arrived had not assessed Nichols and didn't tell him much about Nichols' health status, according to WATN.

When defense attorneys asked Guy about information he received from the EMTs who were already on site, Guy claimed that the EMTs told him they heard Nichols moan in response to one of the medics.

Michael Stengel, Haley's attorney, asked Guy when he knew Nichols was going through a medical emergency, according to WATN.

"When I laid eyes on him," Guy said.

Body-camera footage shows that Nichols fled after police pulled him over on Jan. 7, 2023, for allegedly driving recklessly, then shocked him with a Taser and pepper-sprayed him.

Officers allegedly then beat Nichols minutes later after tracking him down. Nichols, 29, died on Jan. 10, 2023. Footage shows the officers walking around, talking to each other as Nichols was injured and sitting on the ground. The incident triggered protests and calls for police reform.

Memphis Police Chief Cerelyn Davis said she has been unable to substantiate that Nichols was driving recklessly.

The prosecution told ABC News last week that they will not have any statements until after the trial. The defense attorneys did not immediately respond to ABC News' request for comment.

After the police encounter, Nichols was transferred to the hospital in critical condition. The medical examiner's official autopsy report for Nichols showed he "died of brain injuries from blunt force trauma," the district attorney's office told Nichols' family in May 2023.

Emmitt Martin III and Desmond Mills Jr., the two other officers who were also charged in this case, have pleaded guilty to some of the federal charges. Martin pleaded guilty to excessive force and failure to intervene, as well as conspiracy to witness tamper, according to court records. The other two charges will be dropped at sentencing, which has been scheduled for Dec. 5, according to the court records. Mills pleaded guilty to two of the four counts in the indictment -- excessive force and failing to intervene, as well as conspiring to cover up his use of unlawful force, according to the DOJ. The government said it will recommend a maximum penalty of 15 years in prison, based on the terms of Mills' plea agreement.

The five former officers charged in this case were all members of the Memphis Police Department SCORPION unit -- a crime suppression unit that was disbanded after Nichols' death. All of the officers were fired for violating MPD policies.

ABC News' Deena Zaru and Sabina Ghebremedhin contributed to this report.

Joshua Jackson's New Show Sounds Like The 9-1-1 Follow-Up I Didn't Know I Needed

I'm worried about blue bloods season 14 killing a main character after new update: "a surprise that isn't so hopeful", kevin costner's yellowstone season 5 exit isn't that bad thanks to one harsh reality about john dutton.

The medical drama Doctor Odyssey is setting sail in the fall of 2024, and it's already accomplishing something that neither Grey's Anatomy nor Chicago Med intentionally did during their first (or subsequent) seasons. In Ryan Murphy's new TV show , Joshua Jackson stars as Dr. Max Bankman, a luxury cruise ship's new on-board doctor. Max is joined by Phillipa Soo's Nurse Avery Morgan and Sean Teale's Nurse Tristan Silva, making up his medical team, while Don Johnson stars as Captain Robert Massey in Doctor Odyssey ​​​​​. So, it's safe to say that the series' main cast is impressive.

Joshua Jackson's next TV series Doctor Odyssey premieres on Thursday, September 26, at 9 pm ET on ABC.

The cast of Doctor Odyssey contains a Grammy Award winner, a Tony-nominated star, and an Emmy-nominated actress, and that's just Phillipa Soo. Don Johnson is a legend in his own right, being awarded a Golden Globe and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, while Joshua Jackson is a TV legend, known for his iconic roles in Dawson's Creek , Fringe , and Dr. Death ​​​​​​. Sean Teale is no slouch either, as many will recognize him from shows such as Reign and The Gifted . Although Doctor Odyssey went all out with its main cast, its list of guest stars is even more impressive.

Doctor Odyssey Trailer Teases A String Of Impressive Guest Stars

John stamos, chord overstreet, kelsea ballerini, & more guest star in the new abc series.

The trailer for Ryan Murphy's new TV series Doctor Odyssey shows a glimpse at what and who fans can expect to see in the medical drama. From John Stamos (who previously starred in two renowned medical series — General Hospital and ER ) to Shania Twain (one of the best-selling music artists of all time), the ABC show wastes no time incorporating famous guest stars. Most of the following celebrities, including Stamos, Chord Overstreet, and Kelsea Ballerini, can be seen in the Doctor Odyssey trailer.

's Special Guest Stars

John Stamos

Cheyenne Jackson

Shania Twain

Gina Gershon

Kelsea Ballerini

Chord Overstreet

Laura Harrier

Stephanie Suganami

Justin Jedlica

By including impressive guest stars, Doctor Odyssey already has a leg up over other medical procedural shows like Grey's Anatomy and Chicago Med . Neither series utilized renowned actors, singers, and other celebrities while marketing their respective first seasons. Of course, Grey's Anatomy has featured numerous famous guest stars throughout its 20-plus season run, but most of them appeared in the show before gaining recognition (like Phillipa Soo's Hamilton costar Leslie Odom Jr.).

How Doctor Odyssey's Guest Stars Can Help It Succeed

Big names draw in big crowds.

Even though Doctor Odyssey hasn't premiered yet (as of the writing of this article), it's almost guaranteed to succeed because of its roster of guest stars. With big names like John Stamos and Shania Twain, more people will be inclined to watch Doctor Odyssey just to see them. These celebrities can draw more eyes to the ABC medical drama, especially if they promote the show.

Joshua Jackson is set to star in an upcoming TV show on ABC, and its first teaser trailer shows scenes reminiscent of one of 9-1-1's best storylines.

The additional marketing will undoubtedly boost Doctor Odyssey 's ratings. Plus, not every announced guest star will appear in the pilot episode. As a result, people will have to continue tuning in to see some of their favorite actors and/or singers in the medical drama. It evidently pays off to have Ryan Murphy's pull in Hollywood as many are already talking about Doctor Odyssey a week before its premiere because of the show's ability to get impressive guest stars.

Doctor Odyssey

Dr. Max Bankman, a newly appointed physician on a luxury cruise ship, faces intense medical emergencies while navigating the personal dramas of his tight-knit medical team. Far from shore, the stakes are high as Max and his colleagues must work together to save lives, all while balancing their own complicated relationships.

ABC Islands Yacht Charter - Cas Abou Beach on the caribbean island of Curacao, Playa Cas Abou in Curacao Caribbean tropical white beach with blue ocean

Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao (ABC Islands) are an island trio offering a complete Caribbean experience without too many other visitors.

Nestled in the heart of the southern Caribbean Sea, these three enchanting islands offer a paradise for sailors and adventurers alike. Whether you’re drawn to the pristine beaches of Aruba, the world-class diving of Bonaire, or the rich cultural heritage of Curaçao, embarking on a yacht charter in the ABC Islands promises to be a journey filled with sun-drenched days, turquoise waters, and boundless exploration. Navigate the azure seas and uncover hidden coves on a Caribbean island yacht charter holiday.

Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao Hidden Gems

Aruba boasts long beaches, full-service resorts, shopping opportunities, and casinos. If you want to try your hand at wind and kite surfing, the island is perfect with consistent trade winds. If you’re a nature fan, check out the exotic pink birds wandering around Flamingo Beach, visit the Casibari Rock & Ayo Rock Formations, or visit the local ostrich farm.

Of the three islands, Bonaire is known for having the most spectacular diving spots. You can swim with sea turtles, nurse sharks, and stingrays across 63 official dive sites in the Bonaire Marine Park. Although tiny, only 111 square miles, and ringed by a coral reef, Bonaire boasts a big personality. The hustle and bustle can’t be found, and with more than 22 beaches, there are multiple places to unwind. Take a beach picnic to the uninhabited Klein Bonaire, home to turtle nesting grounds.

The strikingly intense blue-colored sea is the namesake of Curaçao blue liquor, and just off the northern shore of Curaçao, you can find the “blue edge.” If you love to scuba dive, the Blue Edge is a dream. This steep, seafloor drop-off is an incredible scuba diving experience that you won’t forget. The island also boasts spectacular coral reef dives, and the south coast of Curaçao offers calmer waters with incredible anchorages, perfect for enjoying the water toys. You can explore the island by hiking and mountain biking, tracing the jagged cliffs that drop off into the sea and the coral and limestone caves dug out by the waves.

The crown jewel of Curaçao is its capital city, Willemstad, and mooring here will bring you right next to the floating market, an excellent place for souvenirs. This UNESCO World Heritage site is where you will find candy-colored colonial buildings among boutiques and high-end stores, incredible restaurants, and a slew of bars and clubs that deliver a buzzing nightlife.
