Mediterranean Yacht Charters

Moncada Yachts was founded in 1963 by Prince Uberto Moncada di Paternò, at a time when yachting still belonged mostly to the navy rather than to private life. As Moncada di Paternò Ship and Yacht Broker, the company helped turn that culture on its head, and recreational yachting in the Mediterranean owes something to those early years.

More than sixty years on, we remain a family-owned firm, small enough to know each client and each yacht personally. Every charter, sale or management contract passes through the same attention: a fleet prepared with care, crews who know their yachts well, and a team that treats detail as part of the service rather than an afterthought.

The Moncada family still leads the company today, carrying that original approach into a market that has changed considerably since 1963. What has not changed is the idea that a good broker’s judgement matters more than the size of the catalogue.

Unmatched Expertise and Legacy

Six decades in yachting means we have seen most of what the sea and the industry can offer. That experience shows less in what we say and more in the judgement calls we make on your
behalf, from the right yacht to the right week to sail her.

Tailored Luxury Charter Experiences

A charter rarely begins and ends on the yacht. We look after what happens around it too: a table at the right restaurant, a private jet connection, an itinerary shaped to how you actually want to spend the week, not a standard route repeated for every guest.
