EXPERIENCE IMMERSIVE WELLNESS ABOARD DARDANELLA – AN EXCLUSIVE EXPLORER YACHT AVAILABLE TO CHARTER FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS SUMMER
For those looking for a totally unique wellness experience and the ability to push boundaries in some of world’s most beautiful and remote destinations, Dardanella – a privately owned, 37 metre explorer yacht – offers just that. From the mountains of the Himalayas, to a Japanese Zen temple and now an ocean explorer, Dardanella’s Scottish-Japanese wellness practitioner, Ayumi Gallagher, presides over Dardanella’s onboard yoga and wellness programmes. Such a dedicated wellness offering is a rarity for the boutique size of this vessel, but Ayumi’s approach is completely holistic. Whether it is Pilates and massages to complement the diving, a pre-surf yoga lesson or developing bespoke wellness programmes, the focus is on an individual’s wellbeing. Her programmes combine ancient philosophies of yoga and meditation with current research-based health and wellbeing practices and nourishing meal plans. There are few things that bring as much clarity and peace as the ocean, and onboard Dardanella offers the gift of immersing guests in the healing power of pristine nature. A fantastic range of itineraries are also on offer, in destinations that are as rich in hiking and diving experiences as they are is in culture, cuisine and natural beauty. Whether guests are in need of an indulgent retreat, once in a lifetime adventure or a deep realignment of the soul, Ayumi will tailor-make a unique experience to suit every need.
Available to charter for the first time this summer, Dardanella’s build combined with her illustrious past as an oceanic and conservation vessel and exceptional crew make her the ideal explorer yacht. Dardanella’s extensive travels have taken her to some of the most remote and inaccessible locations in the world. This has enabled the crew to amass incredible knowledge and insight and offers guests the chance to experience the best and largely untouched dive spots, seek out incredible marine life and rare species, find the best surf breaks and enjoy some of the most secluded anchorages. Dardanella has cruised remote Pacific regions of interest including time exploring the Western Pacific regions of Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and Marshall Islands. Dardanella sleeps up to 12 guests in five beautifully appointed suites with en-suite bathrooms. There are also a host of toys on board including kayaks, paddle boards and jet skis.
HOW: Dardanella is available to charter from USD115,000 per week. The rate is based on up to 12-guests sharing. APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is not included. Wellness itineraries are completely bespoke for each guest. www.yachtdardanella.com
