New England
Yacht Charter Itinerary
Along the coast, yacht charter guests will find classic New England elements: quaint homes with gray shingles, towering lighthouses, families having clam bakes, cobblestone streets and more. From Nantucket and Cape Cod, to Martha’s Vineyard and beyond, New England is where America’s yachting tradition began many years ago.
Day 1
Newport
Begin your New England yacht charter in Newport, the region’s renowned sailing hub. Explore the historic waterfront by tender or harbor tour, taking in sweeping coastal views and Newport’s iconic Gilded Age mansions.
Step ashore at Bannister’s Wharf for fresh New England cuisine, boutique shopping and waterfront dining. With yachts filling the harbor and historic architecture lining the shore, Newport sets the tone for an exceptional private yacht charter.
Day 2
Block Island & Cuttyhunk Island
Cruise approximately two hours from Newport to Block Island, where white-sand beaches, historic stone walls and a relaxed coastal atmosphere invite exploration by yacht, bike or on foot.
Continue to Cuttyhunk Island, at the southern end of Cape Cod, for scenic hiking, secluded landscapes and exceptional opportunities for photography. With quiet coves and remote spaces to unwind, it’s an ideal stop on a private New England yacht charter.
Day 3
Martha’s Vineyard
Head to Martha’s Vineyard, one of New England’s most celebrated island destinations and a longtime summer retreat for U.S. presidents. Explore the island by bike, relax on its beaches, browse local shops or dine at one of Edgartown’s renowned restaurants.
With its distinctive coastal character and strong yachting culture, Martha’s Vineyard is an essential stop on a private New England yacht charter.
Day 4
Nantucket
Cruise to Nantucket for an authentic New England island experience. Wander cobblestone streets lined with weathered coastal architecture, distinctive boutiques and local landmarks, including the Whaling Museum and Toy Boat, known for its collection of classic wooden boats.
For an exceptional sunset, dine at Brant Point Grill at the White Elephant Hotel, a popular waterfront destination overlooking Nantucket Harbor. Nantucket is a natural highlight of any private New England yacht charter.
Day 5
Provincetown, Cape Cod
Wake to panoramic coastal views as you cruise to Provincetown, Massachusetts, at the tip of Cape Cod. Once anchored, explore this historic seaside town known for its vibrant streets, art galleries, nightlife, and expansive beaches.
For a quintessential New England yacht charter experience, head out on a whale-watching excursion, one of the region’s standout marine activities.
Day 6
Hadley's Harbour, Elizabeth Islands
Cruise to the Elizabeth Islands, a secluded chain extending southwest from Cape Cod just north of Martha’s Vineyard. Drop anchor in Hadley’s Harbour, one of the best-protected and most scenic anchorages south of Cape Cod. Its sheltered setting makes it an ideal stop on a New England private yacht charter.
