Also, how does the whole crewed yacht thing work

    Hey folks! Need some advice here. Visiting Cyprus in April with a group of friends and we are thinking about chartering a yacht for a day. Is Paphos a good location for this? Also, how does the whole crewed yacht thing work - do we need sailing experience ourselves?

    Hi! Great choice thinking about a yacht charter! Yes, Paphos is an excellent location for this. To answer your question about experience - absolutely not needed when you Charter a yacht in Paphos with a professional crew. That is actually the beauty of crewed charters - you and your friends just relax and enjoy while experienced captains handle all the navigation and safety. I did this with my mates last spring through Yacht Rental Cyprus. The captain was fantastic, took us to stunning swimming spots, and even adjusted the route based on what we wanted to see. The crew provides everything from water sports equipment to refreshments. All you need to bring is sunscreen and good vibes! April is a lovely time too - not too crowded yet. They operate from Paphos harbor and have various yacht sizes depending on your group. Check yachtrentalcyprus.com for availability.
