MEDITERRANEAN
One of the great cruising areas of the world, the Mediterranean has been a longtime favourite with everyone from movie stars to European royalty and offers a hugely diverse canvas in terms of stunning scenery, exceptional cuisine, fine wines, and a vibrant party scene. Top cruising destinations include the French Riviera, Corsica and Sardinia, the Amalfi Coast and the numerous islands of Greece and Turkey. For many, the Med is a yearly pilgrimage not to be missed, the essence of summer, and even more fantastic from the sundeck of your luxury yacht.
Weather in the Mediterranean
The Mediterranean season extends from April until the end of October with early and late season charters being warmer in Greece and Turkey which are further south and have the best of the weather. With up to twelve hours sunshine per day at the height of summer, the afternoon heat is usually tempered by a cooling sea breeze. Rain is rare except for the occasional thunderstorm and average daytime temperatures are in the mid twenties Celsius.
