View all yachts for charter

Wake in the bay of a tropical island and head to the gym for a workout with sea views, followed by time in the hammam and energising ice fountain shower. Then join the group for breakfast in the sky lounge, with its sliding doors opened up to the aft deck for a truly indoor-outdoor mood, while you finalise the day’s plans.

Everyone jumps in the helicopters to tour the island, touching down in a nature sanctuary to encounter native animals up close. You are then whisked away to a hillside clearing for a ceremonial dance by local villagers, followed by a delicious lunch while taking in the inspiring views. From here, it is a quick helicopter ride back to LA DATCHA, or a downhill adventure on the fat wheels bicycles, before a tender transfer back to the yacht.

Heading to a new anchorage, you take in the surroundings from the comfort of the observation lounge. At the bow of the upper deck, it provides spectacular views of breaching whales and dolphins and, for an unforgettable experience, you can jump in one of the tenders to get a closer look.

The crew launches the three-person submersible for you to discover a dramatic oceanic drop off, with colossal coral shelves, passing reef sharks and a giant jellyfish drifting by. Pull on a wet suit and scuba dive among the local sea life, or there are watertoys aplenty for fun near the surface, including jetskis and towables, and a giant waterslide. Round off your afternoon with a relaxing jacuzzi dip on the sun deck, drinking in the stunning scenery, or indulge in a massage before you change for dinner.

LA DATCHA accommodates up to 12 guests in two spacious master suites, a VIP suite and three double cabins. Her interior creates a relaxed, refined ambiance using muted tones and natural materials like backlit stone alongside striking abstract sculptures.

Sundowners are served on the upper deck aft, with the infinite stars gradually appearing as a backdrop. Move inside to enjoy dinner at the main lounge’s dining table, with built-in fire features providing an atmospheric glow, while you discuss the day’s epic adventures and dream up what tomorrow might bring.

Iona
Step ashore to explore Iona Cathedral. Iona is well known as being ‘The cradle of Christianity’ in Scotland. The Isle of Iona also has sandy beaches, excellent walking opportunities and a variety of wildlife.
map pinScotland
Reine
The port of Reine in the Lofoten Islands is the ideal spot to jump ashore for the Reinebringen trail, a three-hour hike there and back that rewards with spectacular views.
map pinNorway
Staffa
Anchor off the east side of the island and take the tender into Fingal’s Cave, an atmospheric sea cave of hexagonally jointed basalt where, in 1829, Felix Mendelssohn was inspired to write the overture Hebrides.
map pinScotland
Henningsvaer
Take the tender for a tour around the islands, step ashore to enjoy some contemporary arts at the KaviarFactory gallery and visit the football stadium, one of the world’s most scenic grounds.
map pinNorway
Loch Scavaig
Anchor in this dramatic bay and go ashore to explore the foothills for some spectacular views of the landscape. Try your hand at fishing for common species such as pollock, saithe and mackerel to enjoy on board later.
map pinScotland
Bleik
Anchor here and take to the tenders to go whale watching. Look out for sperm, pilot and minke whales, orca too. Glance up and you’ll see puffins, eagles and gannets in abundance.
map pinNorway
Moffen Island
Outside the summer months, when the island is protected, this is where you can see hundreds of walrus hauled out onto the island’s southern tip
map pinSvalbard
Ersfjord
At the top of Ersfjorden is a glorious sandy beach where, weather permitting, you can hike around the frozen waterfall loop before returning for a beach BBQ or hot chocolate and the chef’s best cakes
map pinNorway
Tromso
Explore the beautiful city of Tromso then climb the 1,200-step Sherpa Staircase to summit Storsteinen where you will have a great chance of seeing the Aurora Borealis lighting up the sky above the city

Explore Antarctica

Landings
A series of switchbacks in the snow lead you to the ridge at Orne Harbor to admire the magnificent landscape. The fjord-like Errera Channel is visible on one side. And a glacier slide down the hill tempts you to feel like a kid again.
map pin
Tender cruises
Jump into the tenders to explore rocky coasts and deep ice-strewn waters. Your guide might share their favourite hidden cove, or with care, draw the Zodiac near Antarctica’s apex predator dozing on an ice floe.
map pin
Paddling
Kayaking or heading out on a SUP in the Antarctic ice is next level. While Antarctica’s silence is stunningly vast, the sibilance of the ice - the sound of ancient gasses escaping from the melting bits - is a new music to experience. If you’re lucky, penguins porpoising home after feeding at sea will pass by as you paddle.
map pin
Polar plunge
Brave the freezing Antarctic temperatures with a quick plunge for an Antarctic rite of passage. An invigorating dip in the world’s coldest seas will leave you refreshed, grateful for your yacht’s sauna, and with a glow that feels triumphant.
map pin
Skiing and mountaineering
Take off from the yacht, land on virgin summits and speed down untouched slopes for the most exhilarating off-piste skiing in the world. Antarctica’s black granitic mountains rise straight from the sea to some 9,000 ft. Many have never been climbed so you and your guide can be the first.
map pin
Heli-sightseeing
Soar over Deception Island, the home of an extinct caldera, or Paradise Bay, where floating icebergs are a playground for whales, perhaps spotting remote colonies of penguins from above. Cruise over the azure lakes and crevasses dotting the icecap’s surface; and feel dwarfed by immense tabular icebergs.
map pin
Exploring in a submersible
Visiting the deep in a submersible is dry, comfortable, and astonishing, as it reveals the surprising colour and diversity of the virtually unknown polar undersea. Revel too in the sophisticated tech that makes undersea exploring simple and assured.
map pin
Polar diving
If you have the necessary credentials, you can suit up for a polar dive with the yacht’s Polar Dive Master. Discover the world beneath your yacht, and under the ice.
map pin
Port Lockroy
The 'Penguin Post Office' is staffed for four months of the year to study the penguins. The perfect anchorage point for anyone sailing Antarctica, there is a museum and a shop, and you can send an appropriately postmarked postcard from here too.
map pinGoudier Island
Vernadsky Station
This Ukrainian scientific research station was originally owned by the Brits and it’s where scientists discovered the hole in the ozone layer. Research goes on here all year round. Guests on an Antarctic yacht charter can tour the station and enjoy a drink in the southern-most bar in the world.
map pinGalindez Island
Lemaire Channel
Nicknamed ‘Kodak Gap’ by some, it is one of the top tourist destinations on an Antarctic yacht expedition. Steep cliffs hem in the iceberg-filled passage, which is 11km long and just 1,600m wide at its narrowest. There is excellent sea life here and stunning views. You need an ice-breaker some of the time to manage this.
map pinBooth Island
Whaler’s Bay
A remarkably bleak area, the landscape is almost lunar. Totally different from anything seen on the rest of your private yacht charter in Antarctica. It is an active volcano so you can walk up and around to explore.
map pinDeception Island
Cuverville Island
Another must see during your luxury yacht charter in Antarctica, anchor here to see Gentoo penguins up close. You’ll find yourself spending hours just staring at them.
