Pacific yacht charters offer a multitude of yachting vacation destinations. The range of islands and coastal countries is immense. The vast Pacific Ocean separates Asia and Australia from the Americas. It is subdivided by the equator into the North Pacific and South Pacific. It extends from Antarctica in the south to the Arctic in the north.
Pacific Yacht Charters: Ports of Call
Luxury charter yachts are available anywhere that the Pacific Ocean washes ashore. This includes Pacific ports in North and South America. (Please visit The Americas page for information.) Indonesia is an extraordinary place to explore by yacht. So are the Japanese and Philippine islands.
A yachting vacation is very popular in Australia and New Zealand. Both countries offer all types of crewed sailing yachts and motor yachts for rent. For a more extreme adventure, charter in the Arctic or Antarctic. However, here options are more limited. Charter yachts are ultimately the exclusive property of their respective owners. Only a few intrepid owners are keen to invest in ice-class certification.
Some of the most popular 2019 yacht charter destinations are in the exotic islands of the South Pacific: Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia. Of these hundreds of islands, most charter groups prefer to explore French Polynesia. There are many excellent reasons to charter a yacht in these islands. Here, we cover just a few.
