The service
How your Albania charter works, step by step
Sailing Albania is a team of local charter specialists: we don't own a fleet — we match you with the right boat from selected local partner fleets and stay with you from first message to check-out. Free for guests, always.
1. Send your dates. WhatsApp us your dates, group size, sailing experience and the kind of boat you have in mind. 2. Get real options in 24h. We check availability across the partner fleets in Vlorë, Saranda and Durrës and send you 2–4 concrete boats with photos, specs and indicative prices. 3. Confirm the boat. You choose, we block the dates, and the contract is issued directly by the fleet — at their direct price, no mark-up. 4. Board with us on the dock. We're at the marina for check-in, route briefing and provisioning tips; during the week we're one message away for weather, bays and anything that comes up. 5. Check-out and debrief. We assist the hand-back and the deposit release. That's it.
The numbers are public: bareboat sailing yachts from €1,500/week (most bookings land in €2,200–4,500), catamarans from €3,000/week, a professional skipper €150–200/day on top of any boat. Indicative 2026 prices — the final quote from the fleet follows your dates, and what we quote is what you pay.

DiscoverThe routes
Where a week of sailing takes you
From Vlorë around the Karaburun peninsula to Himarë, Saranda and the turquoise of Ksamil — or across the channel to Corfu and back. Two signature routes, both a week long, both starting where our partner fleets base.
The conditions
How we work, in four points
Dates in, quote out in 24h
Send dates, group size and sailing experience on WhatsApp. Within 24 hours you get real boats with real availability and an indicative quote — no call centres, no forms, no obligation.
Selected partner fleets, not our boats
We don't own boats and we say so: we work with local fleet operators whose yachts we know and inspect. You get matched with the right boat, not the one we need to fill.
Direct prices, free assistance
You book at the fleet's direct price — our assistance is free for guests. Contract, deposit and balance go to the fleet; we stay at your side before, during and after the charter.
Local crew on the ground
We're based in Albania, on the docks of Vlorë, Saranda and Durrës. Check-in support, route advice, weather calls, problems solved in person — that's the whole point of a local specialist.

Frequently asked questions
Do you own the boats?
No — and we think that's your advantage. We're independent charter specialists based in Albania: we work with selected local partner fleets whose boats we know and inspect in person. You're matched with the right boat for your crew, not the one a single fleet needs to fill. The contract is directly with the fleet, at direct prices.
How fast do I get a quote?
Within 24 hours of your WhatsApp message you receive 2–4 real boats with availability, photos, specs and indicative prices. If your dates are flexible, tell us — we'll show you where the price drops.
How much should I budget for a week?
Indicatively: bareboat sailing yachts from €1,500/week (typical €2,200–4,500), catamarans from €3,000/week, plus skipper €150–200/day if you want one. Fuel, marina fees and extras are listed line by line in the quote — the final figure follows your dates and is confirmed before you pay anything.
Is your assistance really free?
Yes, for guests. The fleets compensate us for bringing them booked weeks; your price is the fleet's direct price, with no mark-up. Deposit and balance are paid to the fleet under their contract — never to us online.
We only have one day — can you help?
This site is exclusively for multi-day charters (a week or more). Single-day trips aren't our format — we focus on what we do best: matching you with the right boat for a full week on the coast.
Ready to sail Albania?
One message is enough: send us your dates, group size and sailing experience. We reply within 24 hours with real boats, real availability and indicative prices — the final quote follows your dates. No online payment.
