The hedonistic hotspot of Ibiza has had a shakeup in the last few years. Sure, you can still go for the epic nightlife and parties, but dedicate a few days of your superyacht charter vacation to exploring the burgeoning health and wellness scene that’s sweeping the popular Spanish island.
Drop anchor at Playa d’en Bossa, then head to Beachouse for a sunrise yoga session on the sand. Lunch calls for a trip to ROTO in the marina, offering stunning views of the motor yacht charters in the harbor, and out over the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Dalt Vila.
Dedicate a few days of your Ibiza superyacht vacation to exploring the burgeoning health and wellness scene
Spend the afternoon of an Ibiza yacht charter cruising around the rocky island outcrop of Es Vedra to experience its magnetic lure, then round off the day at Blue Marlin for a dose of Balearic beats. And of course, you’d be remiss not to add Beso Beach to your itinerary; this beach bar-restaurant is an Ibizan staple that sits just a stone’s throw from Ses Illetes in Formentera. Expect nothing but good vibes and cool crowds.

The French Riviera has no shortage of trendy outposts, but St Tropez yacht charters glitter with particular cosmopolitan brilliance and indulgence.
After a morning exploring its pink streets, cruise over to Pampelonne in time for lunch. Be sure to book ahead for Club 55, one of the most iconic venues in the Cote d’Azur, and try and reserve a coveted table in the later lunchtime slot if you’re looking to rub shoulders with Hollywood heavyweights and the A-list elite.
For some post-lunch entertainment, head to Verde Beach. Expect blast-from-the-past beats and dancing on the tables, as the St Tropez in-crowd transform Verde Beach into the most happening party in Pampelonne. Head back to the main port for dinner- L’Opera has got the ‘the dinner and a show’ concept down to an art.

Sitting on the eastern tip of Croatia, Dubrovnik yacht charters are ideal for those looking to take some time out to recharge and enjoy the delights of discovering a new city. Bordered by sparkling Adriatic water, Dubrovnik is known for its Gothic architecture, dramatic terrain, and buildings capped by baked clay-red rooves.
The pace of life is slower in the city, so be sure to take some time to walk the stone streets and soak up the charms of Croatia. Trees grow everywhere, infusing the air with the scent of sweet figs and bitter oranges, for which Dubrovnik is renowned.
If you're visiting during summer, check out the Dubrovnik Summer Festival. This celebration of classical music sees the city come to life with music and art, with plenty of concerts and recitals on the schedule.
Lokrum Island is a charming excursion for peace and solitude, with the Rector's Palace and the unique Buža Bar offering enticing insights into the city's heritage.

The captivating Turquoise Riviera has long been a popular choice among Turkey yacht charters, with Fethiye being one of the key highlights of the region. Providing access to tiny islands too small to name, this beautiful Turkish retreat opens a gateway to a plethora of sky-blue lagoons and secret coves where you drop anchor and swim straight up to the shore for lunch.
Fethiye is one of the most popular spots to charter in Turkey
Speaking of food, you should pay a visit to Lebessos Winehouse during your trip. Housed in a 400-year-old stone cottage in the town of Kayakoy (which has been deserted since 1923) this restaurant is the gourmet dining leader for visiting Fethiye yacht charters. The venue earns extra points for its taxi service, saving you the hassle of booking a transfer.
The service is friendly and accommodating and the local cuisine is authentic and perfectly prepared- opt for tender lamb or Lebessos chicken with cheese, mushroom, and cream sauce.
