10,000 islands. One epic adventure.
The Eastern Mediterranean greets the first sun, illuminating temples in the birthplace of democracy, drama, and literature. Home to four of the Seven Wonders of the World, and with more islands than the Caribbean, it's an invitation to solitude.

Your Guide to the East Mediterranean
10,000 Islands
There are plenty of places to jetski. Even the Croatian government can’t agree how many islands the country has (we reckon 1,200). Turkey has ex-military islands that were off-the-map until the 1990s. Greece has around 6,000 islands - although no one is truly sure. By using the Greek Islands as stepping stones, sailors can cruise two nations during a single charter. Some Y.CO yacht owners combine all three.

Unlimited Experiences
Beyond this Holy Trinity, there’s even more. Ancient city states, like Venice and Bari, showcase frescoes, fine dining and food tours on Vespas. Emerging nations, including Albania, pair only-taste-here wine with UNESCO-protected seaside ruins like Butrint, which are best seen by kayak or RIB. Slovenia and Cyprus serve as staging points for wildlife safaris and white knuckle adventures. Every day is an experience on a charter yacht.

Islands Lost in Time
Lost-in-time archipelagos are scattered across the Eastern Mediterranean. Like Italy’s Tremiti Islands, which are halfway to Croatia. Its 500 islanders use lemons, snails, mussels and figs to craft the ultimate isolation cuisine. And Greece’s Diapontia Islands, which are closer to Italy than Athens. Its 400 residents receive news via the weekly ferry from Corfu - not the Financial Times.
REASONS TO VISIT
WHY WE LOVE THE WEST MEDITERRANEAN
So. Much. Coast.
In terms of shoreline Greece, Turkey and Croatia are top 20 nations with 13,000km, 7,000km and 6,000km of respective seafront. The upshot? There’s a creek, beach or bay with your name on it.
