1. Shorter cruises are perfect for tight schedules.
Whether you have a flight later, kids who need naps, or just want a quick dip and dash — hourly charters give you all the freedom without the full-day commitment.

2. Booking a callback can help you choose the right duration.
Not sure whether to go for 2, 3, or 5 hours? A quick chat with our team can help you plan your route and stops based on how long you’ll be on board.

3. Every boat has its own hourly rate.
From sporty 40ft boats to luxury catamarans, pricing scales with time and vessel. Let us know your ideal experience and we’ll match you to the right yacht.

4. Think about what matters most — swim time, caves, or relaxing.
The key to hourly cruises is planning what you want most: a splash in a quiet cove, sightseeing along the cliffs, or a relaxing toast on the boat.

1. "We only had 3 hours — and we made it count."
Our flight was that evening, but we didn’t want to leave without getting on the water. The team suggested a short cruise with a swim stop and a toast. It was the perfect send-off.

2. "The callback helped us choose the right boat for our budget..."
We didn’t know which boat suited a 2-hour cruise. After speaking with someone, we booked a sleek 40-footer and got everything we wanted without overspending.

3. "Time felt both fast and full."
We booked 4 hours and it flew by — but in that time, we saw the cliffs, swam twice, and had drinks on the bow. We were amazed how much we fit in.

4. "A quick trip, but one we’ll never forget..."
We were celebrating a last-minute engagement and just wanted something simple. Two hours on the water turned out to be the highlight of our entire week.

“We picked a 5-hour option and it was the best decision of the trip. The timing was perfect — enough to unwind but not too long. Just us, the sun, and the sound of the sea.”

Harriet & Tom, London // United Kingdom
+ FOUNTAINE PAJOT 40'  + 3-Hour Half Day Cruise
