Quick answer

Q. What's the best gulet charter in Greece?

A gulet is a wooden motor-sailer, slow at 7 to 8 knots, with six to eight cabins and a great deal of deck. The Greek Charter Index carries no gulet band, because the crewed fleet this house prices is motor yachts and catamarans; the comparable crewed weeks on the Index are a 20 to 22 metre sailing catamaran at EUR 31,500 to 43,500 and a 24 to 31 metre sailing yacht at EUR 24,000 to 55,000, and they reach the same bays with the same crew and a table that stays set. Greek-flagged gulets are based mostly in the Dodecanese, outside the waters this house works.

Frequently asked

About this charter type

Are gulets sailing yachts?

Technically yes (masts + sails) but in practice gulets cruise primarily under engine at 7-8 knots. The sailing is aesthetic rather than functional on most modern gulets.

Greek vs Turkish gulet?

Greek gulets are Greek-flagged, MYBA-contracted, EU-regulated. Turkish gulets are typically cheaper but have flag-state restrictions on Greek itineraries. Most charterers wanting all-Greek itineraries pick Greek-flagged gulets.

Best region for gulets in Greece?

Dodecanese (Symi, Rhodes, Kos) is the natural gulet area - calm waters, authentic villages, less yacht traffic than Cyclades. Some gulets work Cycladic itineraries from Athens base.
