Europe is home to the highest quality and most expensive mega yacht marinas in the world. Engel & Völkers Yachting has selected a 108ft / 55m yacht for a rough estimate of the costs, compiling a list of the 10 most expensive mega yacht marinas in Europe, and the research results may surprise you.
10 most expensive megayacht marinas in Europe
To begin with, it should be noted that the dimensions of the yacht were not chosen by chance. According to the research company, there is currently increased demand for yachts over 50 meters long. However, the number of available berths for yachts of this size is limited. High demand and low supply are the reasons for the overpricing in European marinas. Proof of this is the marina, which ranks fourth. She can accommodate only 16 megayachts. And these factors, along with location, influence pricing.
The second factor is researching the daily rates for the summer season this year. We chose dates outside of major sporting events, festivals or exhibitions taking place in the city for the study, since it is obvious that prices tend to rise in such situations.
Consider Monaco Grand Prixwhich runs about Port Hercule... Dozens of mega-yachts line up every year at the marina, with dozens or more hoping to get canceled to secure a berth. Naturally, this crazy demand leads to high costs. You will be surprised, but the famous Port Hercule in Monaco is not considered number one. Despite the fact that he is very popular, Ibiza Magna in Spain it is almost three times more expensive.

Meanwhile, megayacht owners prefer Capri, Porto Cervo and Portofino.
