Last updated: 26 June 2026

 

At Brume Blanche Yachting®, we are committed to providing safe, memorable and professionally managed private boating experiences. These Terms & Conditions outline the terms under which we operate and set clear expectations for both Brume Blanche and our guests.

 

These Terms & Conditions apply to all private boat experiences, enquiries, reservations and services provided under the registered trademark Brume Blanche Yachting® (National Trademark Registration No. 752943), licensed as a Maritime Tourism Operator under RNAAT No. 971/2025.

 

By confirming a reservation, the client acknowledges that they have read, understood and accepted these Terms & Conditions.

 

1. Reservations

 

All experiences are subject to availability. A reservation is only confirmed after payment has been received and written confirmation has been issued by Brume Blanche.

The details of each experience, including date, time, vessel, duration, number of guests and any additional services, will be confirmed in writing prior to departure.

 

2. Payments

 

Payment conditions will be communicated during the booking process. Unless otherwise stated, all prices are in Euros and include VAT at the applicable legal rate.

All payments must be received in full prior to the experience commencing.

 

3. Cancellation by the Client

 

The following cancellation terms apply to all client-initiated cancellations:

 

• More than 20 days before the scheduled experience: 100% refund

• Between 7 and 20 days before the scheduled experience: 50% refund

• Less than 7 days before the scheduled experience: no refund

• No-show: no refund

 

Cancellation requests must be submitted in writing by email to info@brumeblanche.com. Brume Blanche Yachting® will use its best endeavours to respond to cancellation requests within 2 business days. Refunds, where applicable, will be processed within 14 days of confirmation of the cancellation.

 

4. Weather, Sea Conditions and Rescheduling

 

All experiences are subject to suitable weather and sea conditions. Safety is our paramount concern.

​

If weather or sea conditions prevent the experience from taking place safely, Brume Blanche will first offer the option to reschedule the experience at no additional cost.

If rescheduling is not available or is declined by the client, Brume Blanche will issue a refund of 90% of the amount paid.

​

Final decisions regarding safety and suitability of conditions rest solely with the skipper and crew.

​

The final meeting point, boarding location and departure time will be confirmed with the client in advance of the scheduled experience.

​

Guests should arrive at the agreed meeting point 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Late arrival may reduce the duration of the experience or result in the booking being treated as a no-show.

 

6. Safety on Board

 

Guests must comply with all safety instructions and directions given by the skipper and crew at all times.

​

Maximum certified passenger capacity must always be respected. These limits are established by the vessel's certification and are non-negotiable.

16. Changes to Itineraries

 

Routes, timings, itineraries and ports of call may be adjusted at any time due to weather, sea conditions, safety requirements or operational considerations.

​

Changes will be communicated to guests as soon as practicable. Such adjustments do not entitle guests to cancellation or refund.

No refund will be issued where an experience is terminated due to guest conduct.
