Overview:
Built by Benetti in 2010, AFRICA I is a sensational yacht that is sure to impress. A refresh in 2021 has left her in as-new condition and an unbeatable base for enjoying a charter to remember. A popular choice with celebrities, in 2019 she was the charter yacht of choice for footballer Cristiano Ronaldo and his family. Follow in the footsteps of Ronaldo by experiencing this special yacht for yourself.
AFRICA I is packed full of endless details, with every aspect of her design tailored towards delivering the perfect charter. AFRICA I is an especially popular choice for families, with numerous family-friendly touches throughout the yacht.
The bright, airy and welcoming interior, with nautical touches, is an inviting retreat to share with family and friends. Wheelchair access ensures easy access around the yacht. Inside, the large main saloon features lounge seating and a formal dining table that is perfect for sharing special memories. A second key space is the upper lounge, which is the ultimate space to retreat to with relaxed seating, a fully socked l-shaped bar, a desk, and a huge cinema screen for indulgent movie nights.
Outside, Africa I excels with large spaces on every deck. An al fresco dining table is located on the covered aft deck – this is a popular space for hosting. Steps sweep down from the main deck to the generously-sized swimming platform, making it effortless for guests to enjoy the warm water. On the upper deck there is another dining table set up, while the dun deck is packed full of a number of features including a gym and exercise gear, sun loungers and a Jacuzzi.
The sun deck hosts a forward facing bench seat for panoramic view as well as a large Jacuzzi as the centre feature of this deck. All decks as well as the salons can be individually controlled via HEOS multi-room systems so music can be played in all areas from either the provided iPads or private devices. The stairs connect all decks on the exterior as well as providing direct access to the large swimming platform with a hot/cold shower and a very comfortable swim ladder to ease access to the water.
A large line up of water toys include the brand new tenders, Seabobs, Seadoo waverunners, wakeboards, paddleboards and many more. Not forgetting the giant inflatable slide that adults and children alike will love! Cruising quietly at 12 knots, Africa I reaches speeds of 24 knots for an enjoyable ride, with comfort assured thanks to a modern stabilisation system.

Another fabulous trip!
Yes, we are home and happy as can be. The crew was over the top and the chef more than made up for the last trip . Every meal was not only presented beautifully but tasted sublime. In fact, we made an album for just the food. ????
Chase boat Captain Savvas took the guys out fishing and they had a great time. Every single detail that we could ever want was taken care of. Adonis and his crew basically served as our bodyguards anytime we stepped off our boat and we had such a great time with them. I could go on and on about each of them, but I think you get my drift! Thank you Boatbookings, it was amazing and look forward to summer 2025!
J.E.
What a fabulous week! Every single one of you have been incredible. We could want for nothing. The food was 5 star, the Captain was so accommodating and the crew were great. We cannot wait to come back!
E.J
We had the best birthday celebration ever. What a party! The whole crew participated and we laughed so hard we were crying…karaoke was hilarious.
We are so glad you recommended AFRICA as we never thought any yacht could top HAPPY ME. This one did!
The chef is unbelievable. Every single dish he’s made has been five star, phenomenal.
We’d love to take the whole crew home with us as they are so accommodating and fun to have around.
Thank you Boatbookings!
E.J
The crew, the chef and the yacht are all amazing!!! Thank you Boatbookings!
J.S
Our time on AFRICA was incredibly off the charts. The crew’s (including Captain’s) energy, smiles, service, food, dancing with us, and playing with us was bar none. Truly, the best charter we have ever had! They created such wonderful experiences each day, including a private firework show on the beach with a fabulous dinner. Each member was truly memorable.
We are forever grateful to all of them for providing such an incredible experience. Africa and crew are one of a kind. I really don’t know how you’re going to beat it next year. Thanks Boatbookings.
J.S
Dearest Africa,
Words cannot express how grateful we all are to be with you once again! Your smiles, dancing, service, food, ocean toys, fireworks, beach party, pirate show and music, laughter was bar none! Truly our highest level of bucket list experiences ever! We love you to the heavens above and we will miss you all! Thank you with all of our hearts!
B.S
Thank you Africa crew for this once in a lifetime experience. We will never forget the food and the amazing water sports. We really had endless fun and will never forget our adventure in the Greek islands.
J.M
Thank you so much for the most memorable, amazing time on AFRICA in the Greek islands. The crew, their service and onboard food was exceptional. Your heart and souls went into everything and we felt like you were all an extension to our family. You will all be missed! Thank you Boatbookings team for recommending Africa for our first charter. Professional and expert knowledge.
S.J
We had a fantastic time with Captain Nikos and his crew aboard Africa. This was the best service that we have experienced in the last 5 years; the crew has knowledge and dedication ensured a memorable week in Croatia. Thank you again to Boatbookings who have been organising our charters for the past 5 years!
