About Salamander
A geographically indicated classic, built in Bodrum in 1996 and refitted in 2024.
A blue voyage aboard Salamander is a rhythmic surrender to nature: hidden coves accessible only by boat, swims in crystalline water before breakfast, and dinners under the stars in complete serenity. With twenty years of charter expertise behind her, she is a seamless, private sanctuary where every detail is personally handled.
All six cabins are en-suite with full air conditioning and newly renovated bathrooms with designer fixtures. Her professional galley is home to your private chef, whose bespoke farm-to-table menus combine traditional and modern Aegean recipes.
