Luxury Family Yacht Charters

A family yacht charter is one of the most rewarding ways to travel together. Privacy, space, safety, and complete flexibility create the perfect environment for families of all ages, but at Pelorus, the focus goes far beyond comfort. We design luxury family yacht charters that ignite curiosity, challenge expectations, and bring every generation closer through shared adventure.

Whether you’re travelling with young children, thrill-seeking teens, or a multi-generational group, we build family yacht experiences that feel personal, imaginative, and entirely your own.

Family Yacht Charters That Go Beyond the Ordinary

Most family yacht holidays are centred around calm waters and sun-drenched beaches. Ours push further, into rainforests, coral atolls, remote archipelagos and wildlife-rich frontiers. With Pelorus, a family yacht charter becomes a way to explore the world in comfort and security, with expert planning that adapts to every age and interest.

Expect hands-on learning, child-friendly adventures, and activities that keep even the most restless teenagers engaged. This is travel that sparks conversation long after you’re home.

Why a Family Yacht Charter Works for Every Generation

A yacht gives families something rare: time together without compromise. Children have space to play and explore, adults enjoy complete freedom, and grandparents can travel at a pace that suits them. Everything is tailored, routines, activities, menus, sleep schedules, making a multi-generational yacht holiday genuinely seamless.

  • A safe, controlled environment with expert crew

  • Privacy and comfort for all ages
