14 Days in Lefkada

14 Days Yacht Charter Lefkada

Two-week charter - the format for charters that become trips.

Last updated September 2026

14 Days from Lefkada - what's realistic

A 14-day charter is what UHNW repeat clients book when they've outgrown the 7-day format. Two full weeks aboard a single yacht transforms the experience from 'yacht trip' to 'temporary home'. The crew has time to learn your preferences deeply. The chef can plan a full week of varied menus and start fresh on the second week. The route can cover meaningfully more geography. Practical advantages: some owners price the second week below the first; the figure is quoted per yacht, never assumed. Crew gratuity stays at 10 to 15% of the base rate, at your discretion, handed to the captain at the end of the charter. The yacht can travel further: a Saronic opening and the full Cyclades loop from Athens, or the whole Ionian from Corfu to Zakynthos, become possible. Charters above 14 days are rarer and follow the same routing logic. Departure from Lefkada Marina. Best paired with yacht selection that matches the duration: longer trips suit larger yachts with separate crew zones; the five-night Saronic week suits 16 to 22 metre crewed catamarans and 20 to 30 metre motor yachts.

Best suited for

  • UHNW repeat clients wanting deeper time aboard
  • Routes that need real time (Saronic + Cyclades from Athens, Corfu to Zakynthos)
  • Family reunions and milestone trips combining multiple sub-groups
  • Lefkada-departure charters
  • Charters built around Ionian itineraries

Notes from George

  • Book Lefkada-departure charters 6 to 12 months ahead for July and August, the Greek Charter Index 2026 lead time. Boarding directly from Lefkada Marina saves the Athens positioning leg.
  • 14 Days charters work best with a clear priority list - what 2-3 things matter most. The captain optimises around them.
  • Crew gratuity convention 10-15% of base rate, at your discretion, handed to the captain at the end. Same convention regardless of charter duration.
  • Some owners price the second week below the first; the figure is quoted per yacht, never assumed.
  • Ask the captain at day-one briefing about the itinerary's flexibility - Greek weather changes; the route adapts.

Frequently asked

Questions we get about 14 Days Yacht Charter Lefkada

How much does a 14 days yacht charter from Lefkada cost?

One price per yacht per week with the crew included. On the Greek Charter Index 2026 the weekly base runs from EUR 17,000 for a 15 metre crewed catamaran to EUR 235,000 for the yachts above 50 metres: a 20 to 22 metre sailing catamaran lists at EUR 31,500 to 43,500, a 26 to 31 metre motor yacht at 35,900 to 75,000, a 35 to 40 metre at 59,900 to 150,000. The extra days are quoted by the owner from the weekly rate, per yacht. Add APA of 20 to 40% by yacht type, Greek VAT at the certified rate (5.2 to 12%) and a gratuity of 10 to 15% of base at your discretion.

Why 14 days instead of the standard week?

Two-week charters allow the captain and chef to deliver an experience that 7-day charters can't match. Repeat clients increasingly choose 14 days.

Can we customize the itinerary?

Yes. The sample itinerary above is one common pattern. The captain plans the actual route based on weather, your preferences, and any specific destinations you want included. Brief us at booking.

What if the weather changes?

Captains plan with weather flexibility. Multi-day charters typically have 1-2 weather-buffer days built into the route. The boat stays in protected anchorages if conditions require.

Should we board Lefkada directly or reposition the yacht from Athens?

For longer charters a positioning fee may apply if you want a specific yacht based elsewhere; it is quoted per yacht by the owner. Ask at booking.
