How far in advance should we book?

Six to twelve months ahead for July or August in the Mediterranean, or Christmas and New Year in the Caribbean. Three to four months is usually enough for the shoulder season.

The best yachts at peak dates are gone by the previous autumn.

Last-minute weeks do come up. The earlier you inquire, the more of the fleet is still open to you.
