ALMA

ALMA is a sophisticated 2022 Fountaine Pajot Samana 59 catamaran built by the renowned French shipyard, measuring 18.78 meters with a generous 9.46-meter beam that delivers the volume and stability distinctive of modern catamaran architecture. Her shallow 1.7-meter draft grants access to the crystalline waters and hidden anchorages of the Greek islands—a considerable advantage when cruising the Cyclades from her home base in Athens. This combination of generous beam and minimal draft makes ALMA charter experiences uniquely flexible, allowing exploration of both cosmopolitan ports and remote, shallow-water destinations inaccessible to conventional monohulls.

The yacht accommodates ten guests across five double cabins, each with ensuite facilities, while a professional crew of three manages all aspects of your voyage. This configuration makes ALMA equally suited to families, groups of friends, or small corporate gatherings seeking both comfort and intimacy. The interior reflects light, contemporary styling with an open-plan salon featuring a well-appointed galley positioned to port with a central island, a generous L-shaped seating area to starboard, and a widescreen television surrounded by expansive windows that flood the space with natural light. The design prioritizes flow and social connection—guests move seamlessly between the sophisticated interior, the shaded main deck aft with its alfresco dining station and lounging areas, and the expansive flybridge with its own dedicated dining area, barbecue grill for chef-prepared feasts, and sunbeds positioned to capture panoramic views.

Exterior living defines the ALMA experience. The foredeck offers two U-shaped seating recesses and forward trampolines ideal for sunbathing and morning swims. A hydraulic swim platform descends to the water's edge, simplifying access to an impressive selection of water toys and watersports equipment. Stairs from each hull lead directly to the sea, encouraging spontaneous swimming and water activities throughout your cruise. Standard amenities include full air conditioning, WiFi connectivity throughout, and a well-stocked galley prepared to deliver refined Mediterranean cuisine that celebrates regional flavors and seasonal ingredients.

The catamaran's thoughtful layout—with multiple lounging and dining venues distributed across the main deck, flybridge, and foredeck—ensures guests can socialize as desired or retreat to quieter corners for privacy and reflection. ALMA charter weeks typically operate year-round from Athens, with rates from €24,850 to €34,500 weekly depending on season. Whether exploring the mythical islands of the Aegean, anchoring in secluded bays, or enjoying cosmopolitan island ports, the ALMA Fountaine Pajot delivers an accessible yet decidedly upscale cruising experience that balances comfort, style, and genuine freedom on the water.
