Planning a 📍Suez Canal transit? Make sure you're working with the current numbers.

The Suez Canal Authority surcharge applicable to yachts is now 26% of normal transit dues, up from the previous 14%.

The current rate applies to both northbound and southbound transits. As final costs vary according to the yacht's particulars and SCA assessment, an updated estimate is essential when planning your passage.

Our BWA Yachting Egypt team can assist with current transit estimates and coordinate the full passage.

The Monaco Yacht Show is where the yachting community comes together. 📣 For the 3⃣rd consecutive year, BWA Yachting will co-sponsor the Captains' & Crew Lounge, continuing our support for the people at the heart of our industry.

Yacht captains, crew and the professionals who keep yachts moving are the reason we're there. Standing alongside them has always been part of who we are, and this partnership reflects that once again.

Because while yachts may take centre stage, it's people who make this industry what it is.

Across the Adriatic, the Eastern and Central Mediterranean, we've taken a closer look at the operational realities behind some of yachting's most important cruising regions, from duty-free fuel opportunities and technical capabilities to local logistics, strategic positioning and the people who make it all happen.

Because great itineraries aren't built on destinations alone. They're built on informed decisions, trusted local expertise and operational continuity.

Swipe through and discover the regions from an operational perspective.

📢Good news for the charter industry in📍Türkiye.

Effective 19 June 2026, the Turkish charter licensing framework has been revised, simplifying charter operations and significantly reducing the associated costs for commercial yachts.
