Before You Go
Boat Life
Cleaner Seas
At Yacht Getaways, we are committed to continuous improvements in environmental, economic & social sustainability and want to ensure we all travel more responsibly on and off the water. Here are some ideas on how you can help us leave smiles not waste.
REDUCING POINTLESS PLASTICS
One of the biggest environmental issues today is plastic and sadly the hardest hit is our beautiful ocean. We ask that you minimise your use of plastic whilst on holiday with us by using your eco-friendly Yacht Getaways tote bag when shopping and also saying no to pointless plastics during the trip.
We also ask that you pack a reusable water bottle for the trip!
OCEAN FRIENDLY TOILETRIES
If you can, please bring ocean-friendly products to use on board the yachts – this means eco-friendly sun creams, soaps, deodorants and so on. With so much time spent in the water, we want to make sure we are keeping our ocean as pristine as possible and clean for our future guests (and generations)!
SUPPORT THE LOCALS
We are lucky to be able to work with some amazing local providers; who you will meet during your week of sailing at restaurants, bars, and also during any activities. The best part is that by doing this, you are not only supporting sustainable travel but by avoiding tourist hotspots, you will keep your travel budget intact.
Route Activities
All optional activities are organised and paid for during the week in the local currency.
Local Payment
For 2024 bookings, there is a local payment of €240 per person for Superior Catamarans and €260 per person for Prestige Catamarans. This covers all your yacht’s running costs, including marina fees, local taxes, the yacht’s fuel, the damage deposit waiver, and the charter pack.
Please note for whole catamaran bookings, the total local payment cost is based on the catamaran at full capacity.
The local payment for 2025 bookings on all catamaran classes is €280 per person.
All local payments must be paid in Euro(€) currency.
You can make this payment in advance of your holiday or at check-in using cash or the link below.
Please remember to keep your receipt to show to your Skipper and Host at check-in.
