WHY GREECE?

Greece offers far more than capable yards and experienced marine trades it provides a complete, well-supported environment for an efficient and enjoyable yard period. Based around Athens and Piraeus, shipyards and marinas are positioned close to the city center, giving owners, captains, and management teams fast access to professional services, suppliers, and international transport links. With frequent flights and strong seasonal connectivity, crew changes and logistics remain straightforward, while the local cost base makes extended drydock periods notably more practical compared to many traditional refit hubs.

For crew, Greece is a safe and welcoming destination with year-round lifestyle value. From winter in the city to summer on the coast, there are countless options for accommodation, dining, training, and leisure supporting morale and stability during longer projects. The country’s long-standing tradition of hospitality, combined with its maritime heritage and shipbuilding pedigree, creates a unique advantage: a refit location that is not only operationally efficient, but also genuinely comfortable for international teams. For the global yachting community, Greece is positioned as a smart, well-connected choice for project delivery without compromising on standards, safety, or quality of life.
