EFMARIA — 26.1m Falcon for Charter in Athens Riviera
Charter destination
Athens, Greece
About this yacht
EFMARIA is a 26.1-meter motor yacht built by the respected Italian shipyard Falcon Yachts in 2001, representing the builder's reputation for thoughtful design and robust construction. Following a comprehensive refit completed in 2022, she emerges as a refined and fully updated vessel, combining classic charm with modern comfort and reliability. The interior styling, executed by Falcon Yachts' in-house design team, creates an inviting atmosphere that balances elegance with livability—essential qualities for extended Mediterranean cruising.
Accommodation aboard EFMARIA is generous and flexible, with five cabins sleeping up to 11 guests: a master suite, VIP cabin, two twin cabins, and a convertible cabin, supported by a crew of five who ensure a seamless experience. The main deck saloon and formal dining area showcase the yacht's thoughtful layout, featuring large panoramic windows that flood the space with natural light and offer sweeping views as you explore the Greek islands and beyond. The design emphasizes open, flowing spaces where guests naturally gather, whether for convivial dinners or quiet moments of relaxation.
The exterior is where EFMARIA truly shines for charter guests seeking the complete Mediterranean experience. Her sun deck is anchored by an inviting Jacuzzi, surrounded by generous sunbathing areas—the perfect retreat during Greece's abundant summer months. The aft deck provides sheltered alfresco dining, while the main deck aft offers additional outdoor entertaining space. These well-appointed outdoor areas, combined with a comprehensive water toy collection and a generous swim platform, encourage active exploration of the crystalline waters around Paros, Naxos, and the Cyclades, or leisurely passage along the Turkish coast.
Based in Athens and operating throughout the Mediterranean, EFMARIA charter offers discerning clients both the advantage of Greece's rich cruising grounds and the operational flexibility that comes with a well-maintained Falcon yacht of proven seaworthiness. Whether you're seeking a private family getaway or a sophisticated gathering of friends, her balanced scale—large enough to provide genuine comfort and separation, yet nimble enough to access smaller anchorages—makes her an ideal platform for discovering the region's most prized destinations.

What is included in the charter rate for EFMARIA?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 5, insurance, and use of the onboard equipment and water toys. Fuel, food and beverages, berthing and port fees, and shore excursions are paid from the APA, and VAT is charged on the base rate. APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) is typically around 40% of the base rate, held by the captain and accounted for in full — unspent balance is refunded at disembarkation. Greek charter VAT varies by yacht and by charter, broadly between 5.2% and 24%, depending on the yacht's type, size and certification, the duration of the charter, whether it passes through international waters, and whether the yacht carries permanent professional crew. We confirm the applicable rate for EFMARIA before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter EFMARIA?+
EFMARIA charters from €39,500 per week in low season and €42,500 in high season — a difference of about 8% between the two. In Greece, July and August are peak: the most settled weather, the busiest anchorages, and the highest rates. Late May, June, and September offer warm water and quieter islands at the low-season rate, and are what we most often recommend. The meltemi wind is strongest in July and August across the Cyclades, which is worth weighing if sea state matters to your party.
