Chartering a Benetti yacht in Martinique places you aboard one of the world’s most admired builds in the French Antilles’ most varied sailing destination. Benetti is Italy’s oldest and largest superyacht yard, with a lineage stretching to 1873 and a fleet spanning steel displacement vessels from 30 to over 100 metres. The Martinique fleet includes 16 Benetti vessels available for private charter, each crewed to MYBA or AYCA standards with a dedicated team of four to ten. Le Marin serves as the natural departure point, with Dominica, Guadeloupe and St Lucia accessible within easy day sails from the island.
A Benetti charter yacht brings the yard’s design philosophy to the tropics: considered deck layouts, well-proportioned interior volumes and a crew focused on the guest programme from arrival. Water toys, tenders and paddleboards are standard, and the chef sources local produce through Martinique’s markets in Le Marin and Fort-de-France, where the seafood and tropical fruit are excellent.
Weekly charter rates for Benetti yachts in Martinique range from approximately 95,000 euros to over 260,000 euros depending on the vessel’s length, age and specification. The advance provisioning allowance adds roughly 30 percent on top of the base rate, covering fuel, food, harbour dues, berthing, drinks and crew gratuity. Unused APA is returned at the end of the charter. High season in the Caribbean Windwards runs from mid-December through April.
Martinique receives direct flights from Paris CDG, London Gatwick and through Barbados. Charter managers handle all logistics, provisioning and itinerary planning in advance of embarkation. Martinique’s port authority and marina at Le Marin are efficient and well-practised at receiving charter yachts.
