Pet-Friendly Charters

Your four-legged crew member deserves a yacht vacation too. These charter yachts welcome well-behaved pets aboard, so you won’t have to choose between your dream getaway and your favorite companion. The yachts in this category have crews experienced with animal guests and layouts that work well for pets—think stable deck areas where dogs can stretch their legs, easy access to swim platforms for a quick dip, and comfortable spaces where your pet can relax alongside you.

Before booking, you’ll want to discuss your pet’s size, temperament, and any special needs with your charter broker. Some yachts accommodate multiple pets, while others may have size or breed considerations. The crew can help coordinate shore excursions at pet-friendly beaches and arrange for any supplies you might need. Many captains know the best spots for morning walks when you’re exploring different islands or coastal towns.

Keep in mind that bringing a pet aboard does require some planning—proof of vaccinations, proper documentation for international waters if applicable, and setting expectations about your pet’s routine. Most owners appreciate advance notice and may request a pet deposit. The goal is making sure everyone aboard, including your furry friend, has a safe and comfortable charter experience.
