Charter vacations - 8 most popular destinations.

Choosing where to go on a charter vacation is never an easy task. With so much choice at your fingertips it can be hard to know where to begin. The combined expertise among our Burgess yacht brokers will help pave the way to finding your ideal yacht charter.

Whether you're looking for fast and furious watersport-action in the Caribbean, taking the entire family on a scuba safari in French Polynesia to set eyes on a mighty whale shark, or join the jet set in sunny Saint-Tropez, we have you covered with our pick of the eight most popular charter destinations in the world.

Yachting is a bastion of life in the Mediterranean, which means the selection of where to cruise is vast. But while the litany of coastlines share the same sapphire clear waters, each pocket of paradise puts its own unique spin on cruising aboard a superyacht. A sailing vacation hopping between the emerald Greek isles is a must, and few places in the world can rival the French Riviera’s waterfront cuisine. Wherever you choose to drop anchor in the Med, you can rest assured that a crewed charter will lift the entire experience beyond mere boating and into the realms of bucket-list encounters.

The Caribbean is known for its beautiful islands and cool trade winds. From the islands of St Vincent to Antigua, a sail boat charter is a gateway to another world. Reef-lined Bequia Island off Admiralty Bay is a sailing hot spot in the Lesser Antilles. In the northeast, the two countries of St Maarten and St Martin comprise just one island: the south half Dutch, the north half French. Offering a culturally spliced experience, the kitesurfing opportunities are unrivalled. From tangy passion fruit to milky coconuts, the exotic produce grows in abundance, and Caribbean cuisine provides a heady fusion of Creole, Cajun and African spices.

Step aboard 44.2m HEMISPHERE for a crewed charter that has it all. The world's largest sailing catamaran offers guests the best of both worlds; the exhilaration of sailing paired with the stability of a multihull vessel. Its 16.4m sports fishing tender is ideal for shore excursions, scuba diving and fishing trips, while the flybridge jacuzzi is unrivalled for sundowners. For yoga al fresco, 60m motor yacht DREAM delivers with its voluminous sun deck and Zen-like ambience. LATITUDE also boasts a two-tier yoga deck along with a dedicated instructor, but this 54.7m is all about exploration. Fresh from an extensive 24-month refit, it carries a tranche of water toys creating kayak adventures, paddle-board fitness and surfing adrenaline-fuelled excitement for all on board.

A charter holiday is all about enjoying great company, on a superyacht platform that takes even the most idyllic of settings to undiscovered new heights.
