The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Perfect for families The Dufour 460 is a well-proven cruising design that handles groups of up to 10 people comfortably across four cabins. This 2019 example is ideal if you're bringing extended family or friends and want a forgiving, easy-to-sail platform that doesn't demand expert seamanship.
Smart cruising kit You're getting serious cruising gear here: bow thruster, autopilot, solar panels, and full navigation electronics make passage-making less taxing. The teak cockpit, Bimini, and sprayhood turn the outdoor space into a proper living area, essential when you've got 10 people aboard and need comfortable communal space.
Excellent value proposition At €3,263 per week with a five-star operator (21 reviews backing it up) and a modest €800 deposit, this is competitive pricing for a four-cabin 2019 boat. You're paying for reliability and a well-maintained vessel without luxury surcharges.
One realistic note Ten berths across four cabins means some tight quarters, check cabin layouts carefully if anyone in your group is fussy about personal space. Without knowing the charter base location, factor in airport transfers and flight connections; most Dufour 460 charters operate in Mediterranean or Atlantic islands, typically requiring a connection through a major European hub.

Olympic Marina in Lavrion sits at the southern gateway to the Saronic Gulf, giving you immediate access to the Cyclades and the sheltered island-hopping routes of the Aegean. From here, week 1 typically involves sailing southeast towards Hydra, Spetses, and Poros, with established anchorages and steady northerly winds that suit most abilities. The marina's location 45 minutes from Athens airport and proximity to less-crowded alternatives to Mykonos and Santorini makes it ideal if you want Aegean cruising without the weekend crowds of central charter bases.
