How chartering works
Three ways onto a boat
By the cabin
Join a scheduled departure and share the boat with other travellers. Cheapest way onto a liveaboard.
Whole boat
Take the entire vessel and set the route. Priced per week, split between your group.
Local day boats
Booked the day before at the harbour. No website, no deposit, no schedule.
