How Much Is a Yacht Charter in Greece for 12 Guests?
Twelve is the most a charter yacht in Greece may carry, and the yachts that do are a short list: six cabins, a chef, a crew of five to eight. What they cost, and why there is no thirteenth.
Last updated September 2026
Why twelve, and what the yachts for twelve are like
Best suited for
- Six couples who each want a double
- A large family with grandparents and grandchildren across six cabins
- A fiftieth or a sixtieth on the water for twelve
- A party of thirteen or more who need to hear about the two-yacht week
When the yachts for twelve go for 2027
There are few six-cabin yachts and every large family wants August; they are contracted a year ahead, and September is the open month. Peak weeks for July and August 2027 are being contracted now, in the autumn of 2026; the five and six cabin yachts go first. Nine to fourteen months ahead for a peak week, six to nine for June and late September, three to four for May and October. Booking early buys first choice of yacht and week rather than a discount.
George's insider notes
- Ask for the cabin plan with the proposal; six doubles and five cabins with a triple are different weeks.
- A party of thirteen on two yachts cruising together is legal, common and often happier; ask for it.
- The gratuity for a crew of eight is 10 to 15 percent of the base; on a EUR 80,000 week it is EUR 8,000 to 12,000.
- The 64 metre certified for 49 is the one yacht in Greece for a party above twelve on one hull.
