Combine ultimate wilderness with ultimate luxury
Charter with Fraser
Yacht charter destinations that are ""off the beaten track"" are not sought for traditional reasons like relaxing in the sunshine or visiting local coastal towns. These yacht charters are about the thrill of exploring little-known and unusual regions of the planet, immersing yourself in the beauty of unspoiled wildlife and untouched landscapes.
The Galapagos Islands offer both a cool, dry season and a wet, warm season, so the best time to visit depends on what you want to experience. With such a stunning variety of marine, animal, and bird life, there is always a breathtaking spectacle from Mother Nature to marvel at, no matter the time of year.
Antarctica, while naturally cold year-round, is best visited between December and March. During these months, you can experience up to 20 hours of sunlight a day, witness the adorable antics of penguin chicks, and increase your chances of encountering majestic whales. The awe-inspiring beauty and serenity of these remote destinations promise an unforgettable adventure that few ever get the opportunity to experience.

Antartica Yacht Charter
There was a time when an Antarctica yacht charter was just a dream. Either the vessels venturing to the polar region were privately owned, or they were small cruise ships that did not offer the level of luxury you would expect from a superyacht. Today, however, Antarctica is becoming an increasingly popular yacht charter destination. Visit the penguin rockeries and volcanic moonscapes, kayak past bright blue glaciers as enormous icebergs the size of skyscrapers calve off the side, or venture below the water’s surface in a submarine to witness huge jellyfish drifting through the dark, icy waters.
Galapagos Islands Yacht Charter
Volcanic ranges, uniquely evolved animal species, and a sense of discovery characterise any Galapagos Islands yacht charter. This archipelago of 21 islands in the heart of the Pacific Ocean is a nature-lover’s dreamland. First made famous by Charles Darwin’s visit in the 19th century, much of the archipelago is now a protected land and sea area. With only 25,000 inhabitants, the Galapagos offers an adventurous charter experience befitting a luxury explorer yacht. Witness the extraordinary wildlife, from giant tortoises to marine iguanas, and explore the pristine landscapes that have remained largely untouched by human activity.
