Luxury crewed yachts and superyachts in Egypt and the Red Sea: coral reefs, wrecks, dolphins and desert islands, on a yacht matched to your group.
A private yacht charter in the Red Sea gives your group a whole crewed yacht and a chef for the week, from October to April. The captain plans the route around you: coral reefs right below the swim platform, sandy islands, dolphins and quiet anchorages. Snorkelling and diving can be added as extras.
The fleet here ranges from motor yachts built for diving to superyachts that winter in the Red Sea between their Mediterranean seasons. Our brokers check which yachts are actually cruising here on your dates before they go on your shortlist.
A crewed week in the Red Sea costs from about €15,000 for a catamaran to more than €300,000 for the largest superyachts. Many Egyptian yachts sell an all-inclusive week, while others add an advance for running costs (the APA) and Egypt’s 14 percent VAT. Marine park fees are paid per guest on top.

The Red Sea works all year:

Most charters start in Hurghada, Sharm el Sheikh or Port Ghalib near Marsa Alam, and each has its own international airport. Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea coast has also opened to a few superyachts each winter.

Read guideYes, on a well-chosen yacht. Charter yachts in Egypt sail with licensed captains and crews and carry safety and first-aid equipment for open water. Before a yacht goes on your shortlist, your broker checks its recent guest feedback and how long the crew has run it, and the captain plans each day around the weather and the north wind.
My family and I had a wonderful experience on our first yacht charter. Our broker was super knowledgeable and accommodating throughout, helped us narrow in on suitable options, offered insightful recommendations, and matched us to the perfect vessel with the perfect crew. Would highly recommend their services.

Our broker, Didier, made sure all our needs were understood and gave us complete peace of mind from start to finish. [...] The boat was incredible and the crew provided some of the best service we could have imagined. An unforgettable trip and a 10/10 experience.

Our plans and budgets changed multiple times and Leo was always patient and helpful, providing an array of boats to fit our needs.
