The Greek Yachting Association (GYA) is pleased to inform you that the duration of the 6th Mediterranean Yacht Show, which will once again be held in Nafplion, has been extended to five days! The dates for the upcoming annual celebration of yachting tourism in Greece have been confirmed and they are 04 - 08 May, 2019.

The unprecedented success of the 5th Mediterranean Yacht Show, in which 107 of the finest crewed yachts available for charter were visited by more than 400 yachting professionals from all corners of the globe, proclaimed it the largest event of its kind in the Eastern Mediterranean. The GYA expects an even larger number of yacht registrations for next year and, after discussions with participants & attendees and careful deliberation by the board, it has decided to increase the number of days that the event will run. With an estimated 120 yachts participating in 2019, attending brokers & charter managers will in fact need a little more time to view and appraise the yachts that are of interest to them.

We look forward to seeing you all in Nafplion next year, where you will have the opportunity to view an even more impressive line-up of the luxury crewed yachts that are available for charter in the region.

9th Mediterranean Yacht Show

Having emerged as the world’s largest crewed yacht charter show, MEDYS marked this year its 10th anniversary since its founding. Once again, it gathered the crème de la crème of yachts operating under Greek professional license, hundreds of industry professionals from around the world, and dozens of exhibitors with products and services related to yachting.

The 9th edition of the Show was held from April 27th to May 1st, 2024, at the port of Nafplion and once again highlighted the dynamics of Greek yachting, affirming its role as the spearhead of maritime tourism.

This year's Show set a record with 102 yachts with a cumulative LOA of 3.9 kilometers registered for participation within just a few days of registration opening, creating an extensive waiting list, while last minute charters prevented some of them from attending. The Show was visited by 760 industry professionals from 30 countries around the world. It is worth noting that only yachts measuring 24 meters and above in length have the right to participate in the Show, which is exclusively addressed to luxury yachting.

Yachting tourism attracts an increasing number of visitors to Greece and MEDYS is the perfect occasion to highlight the region as one of the top yachting destinations globally. The show owes its success to the large number of registered yachts, the great turn-out of industry professionals from all corners of the globe and the contribution of the local CAs. It is organized each year by GYA under the auspices of the Hellenic Ministry of Tourism and with the kind support of the Municipality of Nafplion.
