Decision Decision Decision : Yacht Charter Journey
CARIBBEAN
When it comes to superyachting and winter sun, nothing beats the Caribbean. From the luscious Leeward islands and colourful Cuba to the pristine Virgin Islands and rhythms of Barbados, the Caribbean has it all and there’s something for everyone.
If you want to escape the crowds, the Windward Islands are regarded as something of a more exclusive secret, stretching from Dominica in the north to Trinidad and Tobago in the south, Mustique and St Lucia are luxurious highlights.
BABA’S
Spend your days soaking up the sun on Baba’s top deck, where you’ll find an infinity-edged hot tub with impressive waterfall feature, bar counter, and sun loungers. Baba’s also has a fantastic wellness setup with a beach club, gym, sauna, and steam room.
Meals can be enjoyed al fresco or at the formal dining table, and two saloon lounges offer space to relax and socialise. The sky lounge feels akin to a New York supper club, it’s adorned with colourful artworks and offers various seating arrangements.
Baba’s has a huge selection of water toys and is accompanied by a 42-foot Hydra Sport tender for coastal excursions.
This luxury yacht has accommodation for 12 guests in six suites.

SOUTH AMERICA
South America offers it all, and more, when it comes to adventurous charter vacations. Itineraries in the region boast great biodiversity, incredible cuisine, vibrant culture, and everything from glaciers to jungles.
Set sail in the wake of history’s greatest explorers, island-hop through archipelagos, and take a deep dive beneath the waves to discover the country’s astonishing marine life.
Example itineraries include a six-day run from San Cristobal to Isla Santa Cruz, passing by islets ruled by sea lions and iguanas, setting foot on lava-formed landscapes, and stopping off at some of the oldest island chains in the Galapagos.
Pink Shadow
The 58m Pink Shadow is one of the newest additions to the international charter fleet and her captivating design is already making her a popular option. Designed and built in the spirit of adventure, Pink Shadow’s interior is a journey all of its very own with jungle-themed lounges and an Amazon-inspired décor.
The sun deck offers a stylish bar and alfresco dining setup adjacent to the Jacuzzi, there’s a pool on the main deck within the ‘Tahiti plage’ beach blub, and Pink Shadow is equipped with a huge array of toys and accessories for on-water fun and shore-side exploration.
Step aboard with up to 12 guests in the Caribbean, South America, or Antarctica this winter, or book now for next summer’s schedule in the Mediterranean.

THE FRENCH RIVIERA
The South of France has exuded yachting glamour and luxury since the 1950’s, when ports along the French Riviera began to welcome the international jet set and yachting fraternity. The French Riviera is studded with some of the most iconic luxury locations, with Cannes, Saint-Tropez and Monte-Carlo ranking highly on the list of acclaimed yachting destinations.
Stretching from Marseille to Monaco, this sophisticated strip of coast offers visitors a luxury playground of fine-dining restaurants, exclusive hotels, and designer boutiques.
The French Riviera benefits from over 310 days of sunshine per year and boasts 115km of coastline.
SARASTAR
Boasting superyacht style from top to toe, this gorgeous 60m motor yacht has space onboard for all the family.
Exquisitely designed and immaculately maintained, Sarastar is a floating palace of luxury. The yacht has three decks, linked by a stunning chrome and onyx staircase, and an opulent saloon lounge that leads to a 12-person dining table residing beneath a statement chandelier.
Relax on the sun deck by day or night with its chic exterior bar, lounge furniture and exotic garden, or take to the beach club to test water toys – and it’s not called a ‘beach club’ for nothing, when night falls this space transforms into a disco!
