Types of charter

On a bareboat charter you are the skipper and need the right qualification. On a skippered charter a professional sails the boat while you relax. On a fully crewed charter, typical of large yachts, a chef, deckhands and a stewardess are added.

Saturday-to-Saturday weeks are the norm in high season, but many companies in Cartagena and the Mar Menor offer single days, half days and weekends.

How to choose a charter

Look at the boat's year and condition, the number of cabins and heads, the equipment and what the price includes: final cleaning, bed linen, fuel, marina fees and APA (the expense fund on crewed yachts).

Dealing directly with the charter company avoids broker commissions and lets you sort out routes, timings and extras.

Yacht charter in Cartagena and the Mar Menor: frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to charter a yacht in Cartagena and the Mar Menor?

It depends heavily on the boat and the season: a cruising sailing yacht can cost a few hundred euros a day and a luxury motor yacht several thousand. Ask for quotes with exact dates to compare.

Do I need a licence to charter a sailing yacht?

For a bareboat charter you need the qualification required by the country and the boat's size. If you don't have one, book a skippered charter.

What is APA on a charter?

The Advance Provisioning Allowance is a deposit, usually a percentage of the fee, covering trip expenses such as fuel, food, drinks and marina fees. Any balance is settled at the end.

How far ahead should I book?

For July and August, several months ahead. In spring and autumn there is more availability and better prices.
