Cyprus sits at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa, layered with the history of Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Venetians, Ottomans, and the British, all still visible along its coastline. Legend places the birth of Aphrodite at a rocky outcrop near Paphos, and it's easy to see why sailors have always felt drawn to these waters. Warm, dry summers stretch on for months, the Mediterranean stays calm and clear, and every stop brings meze, halloumi, and a different layer of the island's long story. Sailing here feels like moving through centuries as much as through water.
Our sailing tours in Cyprus follow a coastline where mythology, ancient ruins, and modern harbor towns sit side by side. Routes pass Aphrodite’s legendary birthplace near Paphos, quiet coves along the wild Akamas Peninsula, and lively marinas around Limassol where the evening stretches into meze and local wine. Every stop reveals another layer of the island’s long, layered history — Greek temples, Byzantine churches, Venetian walls. With us, you won’t just sail past Cyprus — you’ll feel centuries of history unfold along a genuinely beautiful coastline.
Chartering a yacht in Cyprus is an easy way to explore the eastern Mediterranean’s warm, calm waters, with well-equipped marinas around Limassol and Larnaca. Choose independent bareboat sailing with a valid license, a fully skippered charter for a relaxed trip, comfortable catamarans for groups and families, or fast motor yachts for covering more coastline in style. With a long sailing season and dependably calm conditions, even a short charter feels relaxed and unhurried. Whatever your experience level, we’ll help you find the right boat for your Cypriot adventure.
Cyprus’s calm, warm waters and long sailing season make it one of the most comfortable places in the Mediterranean to learn to sail. Our skipper courses follow ISSA standards, leading to an internationally recognized license valid for life. Sheltered bays around Limassol are ideal for beginners building basic boat handling skills, while more open stretches toward Paphos offer dynamic conditions for progressing sailors. Training combines online theory with hands-on practice at sea, individually or in small groups, on sailing yachts, catamarans, or motor yachts — with fresh meze and halloumi waiting after each day on the water.

Cyprus offers sailing with a different mood along each stretch of coast. Paphos, rich in ancient ruins and mythology, brings history right down to the waterline. Limassol is the liveliest sailing hub, with modern marinas and a buzzing waterfront. Larnaca offers a quieter, more relaxed pace with easy access to the airport and city. The wild Akamas Peninsula, largely undeveloped, rewards those chasing untouched coves and nature. Every region has its own character, and we’ll help you choose the route that fits your trip.
Cyprus is layered with thousands of years of history — and we know exactly which coves and stories are worth discovering.
We truly know Cyprus's waters. We sail here regularly, understanding the local winds, currents, and the quiet coves that most visitors never find.
Our skippers know the best taverna for real Cypriot meze, the quiet cove away from the crowds, and the perfect spot to watch the sunset near Aphrodite's Rock. Every trip feels personal, guided by real local knowledge.
Cyprus's coastline mixes ancient sites, lively marinas, and quiet nature reserves, so we plan routes with comfortable distances, the right balance of stops, and flexible options if the weather changes.
Yes, sailing without a skipper in Cyprus requires a valid skipper’s license officially recognized in the country, such as a national license or an ISSA certificate. If you don’t have one yet, you can complete our ISSA training in advance.
The main sailing season runs from April to November, one of the longest in the Mediterranean. June through September offer the warmest water and busiest marinas, while April, May, and October bring milder temperatures and quieter conditions.
It depends on the specific tour. Typically included are the yacht itself, a charter pack (bed linen, towels, basic cleaning supplies), and standard equipment. Fuel, marina fees, food, and a skipper (if not already included) are usually paid separately — always check the details of your chosen tour.
Cyprus is compact enough that a single trip can realistically cover several highlights — Paphos’s ancient ruins, Limassol’s lively marina, and a quiet stretch of the Akamas Peninsula. It’s one of the more manageable Mediterranean destinations to explore well in a single visit.
