The northern hemisphere is waking from a long, cold winter, with spring flowers blooming and the dark evenings beginning to lighten. You can smell summer on the shifting breeze, your body craves a healing dose of sea and sunshine, and the thought of a week on a yacht somewhere warm is enough to pack your bags.
After winter’s low, dark skies, spring in the Bahamas is just what you need to restore body and mind. Dive off the yacht into warm, sunlit waters, sink your toes into icing sugar sands on coconut palm beaches, and picnic on sandbars surrounded by swirling blues. Drink rum cocktails at lively beach bars, eat lobster picked off the reef, and finish your Bahamas yacht charter rejuvenated, your excitement for life reborn.

April and May are idyllic times to charter a yacht in the Seychelles. There’s a break in the trade winds, making for calm seas, exceptional diving visibility, and that hot tropical weather you crave. The Seychelles are one of the great yachting destinations of the world, promising jungled mountains sloping down to jaw-dropping beaches lined with huge granite boulders and coconut palms. Hike through the rainforest, dive into coral reefs with manta rays, and swim in water so sapphire blue it feels like a dream.
Want to wake from winter in the Seychelles? M/Y BIG FISH is available for charter in the Indian Ocean.
The Turquoise Coast is a triumph in May. The blazing hot summer heat hasn’t arrived yet, and temperatures hover above 25C, meaning you can comfortably explore the stunning Turkish Riviera. The water is swimmable but not yet entirely warm, so this spring destination isn’t for those charterers who want to spend all day soaking in the Med but rather for those who love exploring — taking in the ancient ruins of mighty cities like Ephesus or enjoying a river boat up the Dalyan to where tombs are carved into the cliffs. Spend warm spring days wandering colourful bazaars and relaxing in Turkish bathhouses, feeling the stress leave your body as you enjoy a traditional Turkish massage. Spring on the Turquoise Coast is delightful indeed.
Want to bathe in Cleopatra’s baths on the stunning Turkish Riviera this spring? M/Y METSUYAN IV is available for Turquoise Coast yacht charters.
Closer to Africa than to Europe, Sicily is bathed in sunshine in the spring, and this island offers a breathtaking mix of volcanic landscapes, ancient Greek temples, and never-to-be-forgotten food. Enjoy rocky, secluded anchorages and blissful white sand beaches, take day trips into an interior of lush mountain valleys and citrus groves, and dive into incredible underwater landscapes formed by volcanic activity. Speaking of volcanoes, a yacht charter in Sicily would only be complete with a cruise to Stromboli, where lava makes its red-hot way down the mountain to splash and steam into the sea.
Sicily in spring is splendid, and a yacht charter on M/Y CURIOSITY is the ultimate way to see it.
Fancy a spot of spring skiing with your dose of sea and sun? The French Riviera in springtime is one of the few places in the world where you can ski the slopes in the morning yet be back on the coast in the afternoon, sitting with your feet in the sand at a beach club,
sipping rose in the warm sunshine. Because the Maritime Alps rise so steeply behind the coast, you get the best of both worlds on one charter— sun and ski, plus all the glitz and glamour of the inimitable French Riviera. Ski slopes are open into May in good years, meaning you could marry a ski, sun and Cannes Film Festival/Grand Prix charter. Now that itinerary would put a spring in your step!
