Details

Asheville, North Carolina, is known for its vibrant arts scene, historic architecture, and stunning Blue Ridge Mountain backdrop. However, just outside the city limits, Weekender Yacht Charters offers a unique outdoor adventure that elevates the typical Asheville experience: private yacht charters. Located in the heart of this mountainous region, Weekender Yacht Charters provides a rare opportunity to connect with the area's waterways in a relaxed, personalized way. Although Asheville is landlocked, Weekender Yacht Charters partners with captains who take adventurers to nearby coastal areas, combining the mountain charm with unforgettable water excursions.

The experience begins with a custom-tailored itinerary led by experienced captains such as Captain Chip Taylor or Chester, who bring deep local knowledge and a warm, accommodating attitude to each trip. Guests can expect to visit exclusive beaches, scenic coastal routes, and hidden coves unreachable by most. One popular destination includes Masonboro Island, where passengers can relish sunset cocktails in an untouched natural setting. The captains' expertise in reading weather conditions ensures safe trips that make the most of every moment while avoiding inclement weather.

Weekender Yacht Charters stands out because of its high-touch customer service and willingness to accommodate all types of groups — from family outings to bachelorette parties. The vessels, such as "The Rose," blend comfort with simplicity, allowing guests to focus on the natural surroundings and good company. The crews' attentiveness is echoed in glowing reviews praising their professionalism and personal care.

Asheville’s proximity to the coast makes this charter service a one-of-a-kind blend of mountain culture and ocean adventure, giving visitors a multi-dimensional outdoor experience. Whether it’s a peaceful beach day or an exciting family cruise, Weekender Yacht Charters creates memories on and off the water that are deeply rooted in the spirit of North Carolina's diverse landscapes.
