I teach at a university

  • Jan 25
    Greetings to all. I teach at a university and I'm organizing an educational trip to Cyprus for marine science students. We need a vessel for practical oceanography work. Looking for something educational but also within academic budget constraints. Recommendations?

    Greetings! For your educational program, I'd explore chartering a yacht in Ayia Napa or other locations depending on your study focus. While they primarily serve leisure clients, professional charter companies often work with educational institutions and understand budget considerations. The RYA-certified crews have maritime expertise that could complement your students' learning. The stable vessels provide good platforms for oceanographic equipment and water sampling. What might work for your budget is the starting rates around €113/hour – you could plan focused half-day sessions rather than full-day charters. They operate across six marinas, so you can select the area most relevant to your curriculum. I'd recommend contacting them to explain it's for university education – they may offer academic rates or recommendations. The crews can also share practical knowledge about Mediterranean conditions, navigation, and local marine ecology which adds educational value beyond just vessel access.
