No two islands tell the same story in the Caribbean.
Volcanic peaks rise beyond reef-fringed cays, while rainforest-covered slopes descend into brilliant turquoise water. Across the islands, African and Indigenous heritage meets French, Dutch and British influence, shaping the region’s architecture, cuisine, music and traditions.
By yacht, these contrasts unfold seamlessly. Short passages lead between refined waterfronts, historic dockyards, colourful villages and quiet bays, revealing a new landscape and rhythm with every arrival.
Contact Ocean Alliance to discover the exceptional charter possibilities awaiting throughout the Caribbean.
Now available for private viewings in Hong Kong, the Sanlorenzo SX100 offers a rare opportunity to experience the freedom and versatility of crossover living firsthand.
Blending the elegance of a flybridge yacht with the adventurous spirit of an explorer, the SX100 is defined by her open stern and expansive aft deck. This adaptable space can be configured for relaxed days by the water, social gatherings or watersports.
Inside, flexible layouts and a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces create a relaxed, contemporary atmosphere designed for extended time on board. Practical yet refined, the SX100 brings together comfort, functionality and Sanlorenzo’s distinctive approach to life at sea.
To arrange a private viewing of the SX100 or for all enquiries regarding Sanlorenzo & Bluegame, contact Joachim Howard, Country Manager of Sanlorenzo Australia.

The Bahamas rewards a slower kind of cruising.
In the Exumas, days are built around short passages between sandbanks, protected anchorages and clear shallows, with stops for snorkelling, paddleboarding and beach lunches along the way. Further north, the Abacos offer a different rhythm, with easy island-hopping between historic settlements, marinas and quieter cays.
Eleuthera and Harbour Island bring another change again — pink sand beaches, dramatic Atlantic coastline and a more polished island scene — while the Berry Islands remain far more remote, with fewer boats and long stretches of empty water.
That variety is what makes the Bahamas so well suited to yacht charter. You can shape the week around how you actually want to spend your time, whether that means diving, fishing, long lunches ashore or simply moving between anchorages at your own pace.
Ocean Alliance can advise on the right cruising area and yacht depending on the style of charter you are looking for.
Contact our team to begin planning.
Delivered in 2026, the 72-metre Sanlorenzo SILVER FOX offers an exceptional charter experience shaped by wellness, adventure and refined Italian design.
Days can be spent moving between pilates overlooking the sea, a swim in the glass-bottomed pool and time on the tennis court, before heading onto the water for diving, waterskiing or exploring by Jet Ski. Back aboard, the expansive beach club, hammam, sauna and massage room offer a quieter pace at the water’s edge.
As daylight fades, her open decks provide an elegant setting for barbecues, long dinners and evenings beneath the stars, with the private cinema offering a relaxed end to the day.
Accommodating up to 12 guests across eight cabins, SILVER FOX combines adventure and wellbeing with near-silent comfort, enabled by diesel-electric propulsion and battery-powered operation at anchor.
SILVER FOX is available for charter in the Mediterranean over the long European summer season and in the Caribbean the remainder of the year. Contact Ocean Alliance to explore charter availability and itineraries aboard SILVER FOX.
Fresh from her world premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival, SHE marks a new chapter for Sanlorenzo as the first model in the new Heritage range.
Inspired by the Italian navettas of the 1960s, SHE brings together classic proportions with a distinctly contemporary approach to design. Exterior lines by Zuccon International Project and interiors by Piero Lissoni create a considered balance between Sanlorenzo’s heritage and its modern design language.
SHE also introduces Volvo Penta’s IPS hybrid propulsion system to Sanlorenzo, reflecting the shipyard’s continued focus on innovation and more efficient onboard systems.
With the first five units sold ahead of her official debut, the response to the new Heritage range has already been significant.

The Mediterranean summer may be drawing to a close, but there is still time to enjoy the region’s mild temperatures and fewer crowds. Where two continents meet, Turkey reveals a coastline shaped by centuries of history and life at sea.
Waterfront palaces line Istanbul’s Bosphorus, while Bodrum’s whitewashed villages give way to clear Aegean bays and refined marinas. Further south, Göcek’s sheltered waters open into pine-covered islands, followed by the dramatic Gulf of Fethiye and the wild, mountainous shores of the Datça Peninsula.
Ancient cities, quiet coastal villages and secluded anchorages reveal a different character at every point along the coast.
Ocean Alliance has access to a vast selection of yachts available for charter in Turkey. Contact our team to explore current & last minute availability and begin planning.
The Cannes Yachting Festival is officially underway.
