We founded Yomira, literally meaning ‘Your Ocean’, to offer you more than simply chartering a beautiful yacht with a supremely capable crew.
Through Yomira, your entire superyacht experience is at the very centre of how we operate. Between us we have been immersed in superyacht brokerage for over half a century, which has given us the knowledge and expert connections to offer an unrivalled service; it has also convinced us of our responsibility for the stewardship of our world and our oceans.
We give you exclusive access to incredible itineraries on superyachts across the globe and off-the-beaten-path ocean adventures, designed uniquely for you by people who genuinely care.
So, for all families and friends, pioneers, explorers and culturally curious travellers, in search of the extraordinary – your superyacht and ocean are waiting.

We create exceptional holidays onboard the finest superyachts in the world
Your time is precious. At Yomira, we make sure it isn’t wasted. Our priority is to ensure we fully understand you and your group’s motivations for the ultimate holiday, so we can suggest the perfect yacht, crew and itinerary to meet them. We spend a lot of time visiting the yachts personally, to get to know the style on board, the amenities they offer and most importantly, the ambience on board, as the right ‘chemistry’ between guests and crew is absolutely key to a successful yacht charter.
The great joy of yachting is, of course, spontaneity. Every Yomira itinerary, developed from years of knowing what our clients love the most about their time at sea, is completely bespoke. We hope you will find inspiration in our website – from the latest hot spots to ‘just opened’ Beach Clubs, as well as quiet bays where there is no one else around – all just a taster of what can be achieved during your time on board.
As well as tailor-making the perfect itinerary, we ensure that we find you the yacht best suited to it. Although we have full access to the entire global fleet of over 2000 superyachts, we only cherry-pick the finest for our clients and we ensure that every aspect of the charter is delivered with proper, personal-touch service that keeps you coming back every year.
We are proud members of MYBA, the Worldwide Yachting Association and IYBA the International Yacht Brokers Association – internationally renowned professional organisations that empower its members to achieve the highest ethical and technical standards, and ensure we are always up to date with international regulations.
Superyacht charter demands the highest level of expertise and attention to the smallest detail
Most charters we arrange are booked under the MYBA Charter Agreement, the industry’s most respected and widely used contract. A 50% deposit is usually required to secure your yacht, with the balance of hire together with an advance to cover all operating expenses (known as the APA), tax and any delivery charges payable up to five weeks before boarding. Charters taking place within the UK and EU are subject to VAT; other local taxes may apply elsewhere. We also offer a number of ‘all-inclusive’ charter packages, which we’ll be happy to discuss with you. Cancellation and Charterer’s Liability insurance can be arranged for extra peace of mind.
Charters during the high season (July/August, Christmas/New Year & Festivals, such as the Monaco Grand Prix & Cannes Film Festival) normally attract a higher rate than low season periods.
To enrich your charter experience and travel planning, we often draw on the services of carefully curated shore-side partners. We will notify you in advance of any additional costs these might entail, and will always negotiate the most favourable terms for you wherever possible.
We will help talk you through all of the detail so that there are no hidden surprises. Full terms and conditions are always available from your Yomira team.
Not sure which yacht or destination is right for you?
We're here to help. At Yomira, we hand-pick only the finest superyachts, and guide you through every step of the process - making the entire experience smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free.
Your Ocean
On the ocean, we see first-hand the effects of human activity on the environment. Yomira makes it possible to reduce the carbon footprint from your cruising and contribute to eco and sustainability-driven initiatives. We can offset carbon emissions from your fuel consumption; connect you to ocean-preservation projects in parts of the world where you are cruising; and even provide inspirational conservation specialists and marine biologists to come on board to help you learn more about the ocean.
