Parga is one of the most family-friendly departure points on the Greek mainland, combining a sheltered harbour with easy access to the calm northern Ionian islands. Family yachts in this fleet are selected for generous deck space, shallow-water anchoring capability, and a water toy inventory suited to children and adults alike. The 43 family-tagged vessels available from this base range from 20-metre motor yachts to larger gulets and motor sailers.
Weekly rates for family yachts chartered from Parga start from approximately 20,000 euros and extend to 300,000 euros for larger superyachts configured for multiple generations. The advance provisioning allowance, typically 30 percent of the charter fee, covers fuel, food, berthing, and drinks. July and August are peak season, with school holiday demand highest in the first two weeks of August. June and September are quieter, more affordable, and still very warm.
Family yachts are equipped with a range of water toys including kayaks, paddleboards, snorkelling sets, and inflatables, all managed by a deck crew who can supervise children in the water. The shallow bays around Paxos and the beaches of Antipaxos are ideal for young swimmers, and the flat calm of the northern Ionian during settled weather makes passages gentle and comfortable for all ages.
From Parga, the route to Paxos and Antipaxos is the classic family itinerary. Voutoumi beach on Antipaxos is one of the most photographed in Greece, accessible only by boat, and its turquoise water and white sand consistently delight younger guests. The castle above Parga town makes a rewarding afternoon ashore before departure.
