Questions

Questions about January in the Seychelles

All questions and answers

How much does a week on a yacht cost in the Seychelles in January?

Catamarans: a week for the whole boat — median €7,499, half of the boats from €6,082 to €9,025. Per berth per week — from €621, median €760. 20%+ off — 6% of boats. Checked 24 Oct, 173 boats.

Is January a good time to charter a yacht in the Seychelles?

Yes. The Seychelles are sailed all year round. The calmest months are April, October and November, between the trade-wind seasons. From May to September the south-easterly blows, fresher and drier; from December to March the north-westerly, calmer and more humid. The fleet is almost all catamarans, booked 4–8 months ahead.

Is a yacht in the Seychelles cheaper in January than in the months around it?

Catamarans, median € per berth per week: December: €616; January: €760; February: €800. The cheapest month with numbers is December, at €616.

When should I book for January?

Last-minute deals appear 2–6 weeks before departure. The agent checks the market about every 6 days; an alert for the country and month sends new boats right after each check.

What else is paid at the base?

Transit log and final cleaning, fuel, marinas and the refundable deposit by a credit card not issued in Russia; a skipper if you need one. 30–70% prepayment on booking, the rest a month before departure.

Do I need a licence to charter a yacht?

For a bareboat charter (no skipper or crew provided), yes: a skipper's licence and, as a rule, a VHF radio certificate. Without a licence, we add a skipper, paid separately from the boat price.

Why do all charters run Saturday to Saturday?

99% of charter fleets worldwide work this way: the boat comes back on Friday evening and goes out to the next crew on Saturday morning. Other changeover days are possible in low season, by arrangement. In some destinations (the Caribbean, Cuba, France) you can add days beyond the week: +1, 2, 3 or 4 days.

Where the numbers come from and how to cite them

The RYC search agent checks the charter company portals MMK and NauSys and open booking sites about every 6 days; each boat is counted once per week, at the source price with no markup. You may cite the figures on this page with a link to it; every month and country is in the CSV and on the Prices page.
