Mexico Yacht Charter
Guests onboard a Mexico yacht charter, have the potential to be purely entertained through endless fiestas and frivolity. Mexico has white-sand beaches and crystalline turquoise waters, but that's not the only reason why Mexico makes a fantastic place for a yacht charter vacation. The sizzling nightlife, waterfront restaurants and sheer liveliness of towns like Acapulco, gives Mexico a legendary reputation. Mexico is crammed with apposing identities: desert landscapes, snow capped volcanoes, glitzy resorts, timeless colonial towns, ancient ruins, polluted cities and isolated beaches.
Three main Mexico yacht charter areas are of particular interest: Baja Peninsula and the Sea of Cortez, The Mexican Riviera from Mazatlan to Acapulco and Cancun. The types of Mexico charter yachts available include motor, sailing, skippered, crewed yachts, catamaran, power boat, sailboat, as well as luxury superyacht charter.
The fantastic climate means that Mexico is a great yacht charter location year round, although the most pleasant conditions are generally from October to May. The May-September period can be hot and humid, particularly in the south, but cooling blue waters at your back door, it's easy enough to cool off.
Yachting on Mexico's Baja Peninsula – Swimming and Relaxing in Nature’s Bounty.
One very intriguing part that is fantastic for Mexico yacht vacations is Baja Peninsula which lies 1,000 miles along the Southern part of North America’s west coast. The Baja Peninsula is an unusual part of the planet with its desert like coastline and landscape as matched with a teaming ocean with clear water, world class sports fishing and dozens of sheltered remote coves with sandy beaches to explore and anchor you yacht in. A luxury yacht charter in this part of western Mexico also means you can really enjoy Mexico's warm local hospitality and distinctive architectural style. The Island pueblos of Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, Manzanillo and Acapulco are also well worth a look as they are like beautiful pearls that bring in many luxury tourists.

The crew were super helpful and hospitable throughout, the food was absolutely fantastic every single day, everyone friendly and experienced we had a great itinerary and the snorkelling and the swimming with sharks was memorable. A really good few days, 10/10 all round. JG NOMADA / Bahamas / 27-30 May 2022
Hi Trina, it was a fantastic experience and we all loved it. Captain Mauricio and his crew were amazing. There were a couple of technical issues, but they worked hard to resolve them promptly. We'll definitely have to do this again and look forward to exploring new destinations. Thank you for all your help and diligence making this great experience happen. E.R.
Hi Trina, O’Mega – just lovely. The overhaul in 2011 has been tastefully done and many appreciated her glossy internal finish. Very well appointed and maintained. We were all very proud to be on-board her that is a definte! The Crew – what a group of professionals. They did an outstanding job. Yannis and Maria in particular were a huge help to me. Everyone spoke good English which encouraged general conversation and interaction with the crew. We all fell in love with Paulo the laundry fairy! The watersport team were very attentive and provided the appropriate instruction and guidance. So much so some guests tried some sports for the first time successfully. The guests very much enjoyed their time with the crew in all its forms. Charter on O'MEGA in Croatia, Jun
Dear Amanda, These guys are insanely good. Sea of Cortez and this crew is truly exceptional. And also close. Close to Los Angeles but no one is really here. Crew knows the place and knows how to live in the best possible way. It was pretty extraordinary. Most importantly my family had a spectacular time. Really spectacular. That’s thanks to the crew and captain. Many thanks, and I look forward to the next trip.
Hi Trina. The charter was great. The boat is terrific (I've always been partial to Swans) -- it's in great shape and generally very well equipped. We got in some very nice sailing. And I can't say enough good things about the crew. I didn't realize that we would be Jeremy's first charter as captain -- it was clear at the outset that he was a bit nervous, but he settled in as the charter progressed and we all had a great time. Claudia is about the best on-board chef I have encountered, and she, Jeremy, and Afric (mate) are all such lovely people and enjoy each other's company so much, that it really added to the week. I am hoping to sail with them again. In fact, I discussed this boat's schedule with Jeremy and am thinking about chartering it again when they are in Mexico, either later this spring or in the fall. I will be in touch with you once I get a sense from Jeremy whether they will be in La Paz early enough for us to catch them before we get too busy and the weather gets too hot. Thanks again for all of your help with this, especially in light of the last minute nature of the trip. It's really hard to see how it could have gone better.
