Do Yacht Charters Have to Be Saturday to Saturday? (Caribbean vs Mediterranean)

Does your yacht charter have to be Saturday to Saturday? It depends on the destination. In this video we break down the real-world charter schedule differences between the Caribbean (often flexible start days + flexible durations) and the Mediterranean (commonly 7-day increments, often Saturday turnovers, with some midweek options in places like Croatia and Greece). You’ll learn: - When Sat–Sat is required (and when it isn’t) - Typical embark/disembark times and why they matter - How a sleep aboard can make day one smoother - Why early boarding / early check-in can feel like “adding a day” - The Mediterranean’s common Friday return-to-base requirement - Need help planning a charter the right way?
