They say a true sailor never travels alone — and we couldn’t agree more! Whether you’re setting sail on a catamaran, monohull, or motor yacht, there’s always room for your four-legged companion. At FYLY Yachting, we welcome pets aboard most of our fleet because we believe adventures are better when shared with those we love — tails and all.

Tips for Traveling With Your Pet

1. Preparation Is Key

Before your trip, make sure your pet’s vaccinations, microchip, and travel documents are up to date. Check Greece’s pet entry regulations if you’re arriving from abroad.

2. Pack the Essentials

Bring along:

  • Their favorite blanket or bed (familiar scent = comfort)
  • Food and water bowls
  • Pet life jacket
  • Waste bags, cleaning wipes, and a towel for after swims

3. Safety on Board

Always make sure your pet wears a life jacket when on deck, especially while underway. Cats and small dogs can be startled by waves or sudden motion. It’s also best to keep them in shaded areas during the hottest hours of the day.

4. Comfort & Routine

Stick to your pet’s feeding and exercise schedule to keep them happy and stress-free. Give your pet time to get used to the yacht’s motion — start with shorter sails and allow them to stretch their legs during shore excursions. Many Greek islands are pet-friendly, some even have small beaches perfect for furry swims.

5. Seasickness Solutions

Check with your vet for anti-nausea options if your pet is prone to motion sickness.

6. Cleaning & Comfort

We know pets can bring a little extra sand and fur. That’s why there’s a slightly higher end-cleaning fee, ensuring the yacht remains spotless and fresh for all guests.

Our Philosophy

At FYLY, we want every guest, human or otherwise, to feel welcome. Pets remind us to slow down, enjoy the moment, and live fully in the now. So yes, your furry sailor is not only allowed but celebrated.
