Santorini combines geological drama with some of the most recognisable scenery in the world, its caldera walls rising steeply above the anchorage and the villages of Fira and Oia perching at the cliff edge above. At 125,000 euros per week, charter guests board large motor yachts in the 42 to 50 metre range equipped with beach clubs, multiple guest decks and crews delivering consistent hotel-level service. The island is one of the most sought-after destinations in the Cyclades and charter traffic is correspondingly high in July and August, making June and September particularly attractive for those seeking the same scenery with fewer vessels in the caldera. Charter yachts at this level typically accommodate eight to ten guests across four or five cabins and run with a crew of five to seven. Santorini white wines, cherry tomatoes and local fish are exceptional provisioning ingredients available from island suppliers. The advance provisioning allowance for a 125,000 euro charter runs to approximately 37,000 euros. From Santorini, day sails north explore Ios, Sikinos and Folegandros before the Cyclades chain continues to Milos and the Argolic Gulf.
