Benetti of Viareggio, Italy, is the world largest superyacht builder by volume. The yard range from 34 metres to above 100 metres in both steel and composite construction gives the charter market the widest fleet variety of any single builder, with vessels suited to every budget and group size within the luxury superyacht segment.
The Leeward Islands provide an outstanding cruising ground for Benetti charter yachts. The chain offers consistent trade winds from December through April, a variety of cultural contexts from British Antigua to French Guadeloupe and Martinique to Dutch St Martin, and a range of anchorage types from the busy harbour of English Harbour on Antigua to the near-deserted bays of Barbuda and the Saintes.
Benetti charter yachts in the Leeward Islands typically range from 60,000 to over 400,000 euros per week depending on vessel size. The advance provisioning allowance covering fuel, food, berthing and drinks adds 30 to 35 percent. Given the depth and variety of the Benetti fleet, vessels are available across the full range of charter weeks and price points within the peak season.
From a northern Leeward base in Antigua or St Barts, the Benetti fleet range and stability makes the full Leeward arc from Barbuda south to Guadeloupe and beyond straightforward to complete in two weeks.
