Yacht Getaways is officially Certified B Corp — and we’re genuinely proud to share it after a 20+ month journey toward certification.

If you’ve sailed with us before, you already know we care about the details: the comfort onboard, the service, the itinerary flow, and the feeling of switching off the moment you step onto the catamaran. B Corp certification is about the same mindset, applied to how we run our business behind the scenes.

Becoming a B Corp means Yacht Getaways has been independently verified to meet high standards for social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. It’s not a marketing badge. It’s a measurable commitment to doing travel the right way — and proving it.

Whether you’re planning a luxury sailing holiday in Greece, a boutique catamaran cruise in Croatia, or a relaxed Mediterranean yacht holiday with family or friends, this certification helps you feel even better about who you travel with.

What Does “B Corp Certified” Mean?

A Certified B Corporation (B Corp) is a business that meets verified standards across the areas that matter most:

• How the company treats its team
• How it works with partners and suppliers
• How it supports communities
• How it manages environmental impact
• How it commits to transparency and long-term improvement

In other words: B Corp looks at the whole business, not just the product.

For travel companies, that’s important. The travel industry has a real impact on coastlines, communities, water and energy usage, waste, and the local economies that make unforgettable holidays possible. B Corp is a framework that holds companies accountable to operate with care, not just convenience.

Why Yacht Getaways Pursued B Corp Certification

Luxury travel should feel effortless. But “effortless” shouldn’t mean thoughtless.

We pursued B Corp certification because we believe premium holidays can be both:

• Comfort-first, and
• Conscience-led

Our guests want the best of the Mediterranean: beautiful anchorages, delicious food, charming ports, warm water, and relaxed days on deck. B Corp helps us protect that experience — not only for today’s travellers, but for the long term.

It also reflects what Yacht Getaways has always aimed to be: a boutique operator that values quality, responsibility, and trust.

What This Means for Your Yacht Getaways Holiday

When you book a luxury catamaran cruise with Yacht Getaways, you’re choosing more than a route and a cabin. You’re choosing a company.

B Corp certification means you can feel confident that Yacht Getaways is committed to:

• making decisions that balance people, planet, and purpose
• building a business that’s responsible, not just profitable
• improving year after year through measured standards

For guests, that matters in a practical way. It means your holiday is backed by a company that’s actively paying attention to the impacts that travel can have — while still delivering the relaxed, premium experience you came for.

Responsible Luxury Travel in Greece and Croatia

If you’re searching for responsible luxury travel, you’ve probably noticed the same thing we have: lots of claims, not always much proof.

B Corp is different because it’s verified. It’s a structured, evidence-based assessment — and that’s why it matters.

Yacht Getaways specialises in boutique catamaran holidays in Greece and Croatia, where the sea, the coastline, and local culture are the entire point of the trip. Caring for these places isn’t optional. It’s part of delivering a genuinely high-end travel experience.

Responsible luxury is not about sacrificing comfort. It’s about:

• reducing unnecessary waste
• supporting local economies
• respecting communities and coastlines
• operating with transparency and accountability

A Higher Standard in the Travel Industry

B Corp certification places Yacht Getaways in a global community of businesses working towards a more inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.

In travel, that matters because standards can vary widely. Certification helps cut through the noise.

It’s also a signal to our guests, partners, and team that we’re building something long-term: a brand you can trust, holidays that feel exceptional, and a company that takes responsibility seriously.

This Isn’t the Finish Line, It’s a Checkpoint

We don’t see B Corp certification as an end goal. We see it as a commitment to continual improvement.

The Mediterranean is changing. Travellers are changing. Expectations are rising — and rightly so.

So this is a checkpoint, and a promise we will keep improving, we will keep measuring ourselves, and we will keep making decisions that protect the places we sail.

Thank You for Being Part of Yacht Getaways

To past guests, current guests, and everyone planning their future sailing holiday: thank you.

Your support allows us to keep refining what we do best: delivering calm, comfort-led, boutique catamaran holidays in Greece and Croatia — while also building the kind of company we’re proud to stand behind.

B Corp FAQ: Your Questions Answered

What is a B Corp in simple terms?

A B Corp is a company that has been independently verified to meet high standards for social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. It’s a way of proving the business is committed to doing good, not just making money.

What does B Corp Certified mean for a travel company?

For a travel company, B Corp certification means the business is measured on how it operates across people, planet, and purpose — including environmental impact, community responsibility, and ethical business practices. It’s particularly relevant in destinations where tourism can affect coastlines, water quality, and local culture.

Is B Corp the same as being “eco-friendly”?

Not exactly. “Eco-friendly” usually focuses mainly on environmental choices. B Corp is broader: it covers environmental impact but also includes how a company treats staff, works with suppliers, supports communities, and commits to accountability and ongoing improvement.

Does B Corp certification mean Yacht Getaways is carbon neutral?

Not automatically. B Corp certification doesn’t equal carbon neutrality. It means the company is measured on a wide set of impacts and must meet verified standards. If carbon reduction or offsetting is part of the approach, it should be communicated clearly alongside the certification.

How is B Corp certification verified?

B Corp certification involves an assessment of the company’s operations, policies, and impacts, followed by a verification process. Companies must meet a qualifying score and are expected to recertify over time, which encourages ongoing improvement rather than one-off claims.

Why should travellers care about B Corp certification?

Because it helps you choose travel companies that take responsibility seriously. It’s a trust signal that the business is committed to ethical practices and measurable improvement — not just marketing language.

Are B Corps audited regularly?

B Corps are required to recertify periodically and maintain accountability. This creates a structure for continued progress, rather than treating responsibility as a one-time project.

Is B Corp certification recognised internationally?

Yes. B Corp is a global certification with a worldwide community of certified companies across many industries, including travel and hospitality.

Does being a B Corp change the Yacht Getaways guest experience?

Your onboard experience remains focused on comfort, service, and a calm luxury sailing holiday. What changes is the reassurance that the company behind your holiday is committed to verified standards, responsible operations, and improving year after year.

How can I travel more responsibly on a luxury holiday?

A few practical ways:

• Choose operators with verified standards (like B Corp)
• Respect local communities and customs
• Reduce plastic waste (refill bottles where possible)
• Support local businesses and producers
• Travel at a slower pace and stay longer in fewer places
