Space and stability
Catamaran charter for families and groups
Two hulls create wide outdoor areas and good stability at anchor. The right model depends on the capacity, the route and whether you want a crew.
Before you choose
Not every catamaran suits the same programme
A catamaran usually offers a wide saloon, easy movement and comfortable access to the water. It is a practical solution for families and groups, above all when the aim is to spend plenty of time at anchor and spread the guests across different areas.
It can be chartered with a crew or, in some cases, without one. In the second option, the partner checks qualifications and sailing experience. Beam, draft, sailing performance and the availability of a berth in a marina also shape the choice.
Where it works well
Four areas to make the most of the format
Channels and sheltered water
The shallow draft can help, always with a route set by those who know the tides and depths.
Cliffs and coves
The outdoor space favours days with several stops and repeated access to the water.
Central coast
Vilamoura and Albufeira let you combine short passages, lunch and time at anchor.
A calm pace on the Sado
An option for groups who prefer short passages and relatively sheltered areas.
With or without a crew
Freedom calls for preparation
With a crew, the group can focus on the day while professionals handle the sailing and the service booked. Confirm whether there is a skipper, a deckhand, meals and help at boarding.
Without a crew, operational responsibility passes to the client within the terms of the contract. Licences, experience, the deposit, cleaning, fuel and the return procedure should be made clear before booking.
