Private Yacht Charter

Get onboard "Karni 1", a private sail yacht, and get a taste of life on the ocean.

What you are about to discover is one of the best-kept travel secrets in the world: Chartering your own yacht is better than a vacation at an exclusive island resort. It's better than being on a cruise ship, too. That's because it gives you the best of both, plus a whole lot more.

It's affordable as you want it to be, it's not complicated, you don't have to know anything about boats - and, most important, it's a whole lot of fun!
Experience sailing in the open ocean, discover untouched deserted islands and islets, snorkel at magnificent coral reefs with tropical fish, dine on the deck under the stars.

Karni-one is 45 foot long and equipped with 1 big and 1 small bedrooms, 1 living room which can hold another person or two, 2 toilets and showers, a kitchen area, a flat screen and a DVD player, a stereo system.

Upto 6 people can get onboard, although the yacht is most suitable for 3-4 people.
It's perfect for a couple on vacation or a small group of friends.

The yacht is operated by a family of 3, with 9 years experience on the ocean, who will take care of all your needs. Apart from the sailing experience and the activities, you will also get an insight into the life of a family that lives its life on the ocean.
