Yacht Charter FAQs

What is the charter boat like?

The Lagoon 450 Muzical is a modern, spacious catamaran designed and presented for tropical sailing. Wide decks, forward and aft lounging areas as well as an open-plan saloon provide plenty of space for groups to relax together or find a quiet corner. Each cabin is fully private with ensuite facilities, and large windows flood the interior with natural light.

In addition to comfort, the Lagoon 450 offers stability at anchor and reliable sailing performance. Onboard, your professional crew takes care of the yacht, prepares fresh meals, serves drinks and shares local knowledge. For our guests it’s a balance of adventure and indulgence, combining hotel-style amenities with the freedom of life under sail.
