A crewed catamaran is the version of a Greek charter that people picture and rarely price correctly. You get a skipper and usually a host or cook, the cooking and the passage planning stop being your problem, and the boat is the same catamaran a bareboat party would have sailed themselves. What changes is that the price now has two parts, and only one of them is quoted up front.

Greece catamaran charter prices: the published figure that gets closest
No Greek company in this record publishes a crewed catamaran rate. The nearest published figure anywhere in it is Croatian: Sailing Holidays in Croatia states that the average weekly cost of a crewed catamaran is 10.000 EUR, alongside crewed luxury charters starting at 25.000 EUR and running to 80.000 EUR. Greek crewed catamarans sit in the same band, and using a published Croatian number as the anchor is more honest than inventing a Greek one.
What the crew fee does and does not cover
The weekly fee buys the yacht and the crew's time. It does not buy the food they cook, the fuel they burn, the berths they take in town or the port charges along the way. On a fully crewed charter those come out of an Advance Provisioning Allowance paid before the trip and reconciled at the end; on a lighter skippered arrangement they are often simply billed to you as they happen, and the skipper is paid separately, which Sailing Holidays in Croatia publishes at 1.260 EUR a week.
Luxury catamaran charter Greece: where the money goes
Greece catamaran charter cost turns on size first, then season, then crew count. A four-cabin catamaran with a skipper and a host is a different boat and a different bill from a six-cabin power catamaran with four crew, and the gap between them is far wider than the gap between Greece and any other Mediterranean cruising ground. The islands are the same islands; almost the whole price range is the boat.
Questions people ask about crewed catamaran charter Greece
How much is a crewed catamaran in Greece?
No Greek company in this record publishes one. The closest published figure is Sailing Holidays in Croatia's average of 10.000 EUR a week for a crewed catamaran, with crewed luxury charters from 25.000 EUR.
What is included in a crewed charter?
The yacht and the crew's time. Food, fuel, berthing and port charges are extra, usually through an Advance Provisioning Allowance paid up front and reconciled against receipts at the end.
Is a crewed catamaran worth it over bareboat?
It is a different holiday rather than a better one. If nobody in the party wants to plan passages, cook or park a twelve-metre-wide boat in a crosswind, the crew is the product you are buying.
