Best destinations for iconic heli-skiing yacht charters

By Katie Scott   1 March 2024

Prepare for high-flying adventures and jaw-dropping scenery on an incredible heli-skiing yacht charter. Ideal for charter guests who thrive on the need for speed and extreme sports, luxury yacht charter vacations featuring heli-skiing are perfect for avid skiers and those who want to marvel at breathtaking sites of natural beauty.

Offering charter guests the ultimate opportunities to test their skills on the slopes, heli-skiing opens a gateway to largely undisturbed snow packs and otherwise unreachable courses down spectacular mountains and rugged terrains. From South America to Greenland and Antarctica, yacht charters to these captivating destinations will bring you and your charter guests up against some of the most exhilarating off-course ski slopes in the world.

Heli-skiing yacht charter destinations

Antartica

Home to magical, picture-perfect landscapes and teeming with Antarctic wildlife including penguins, seals, and polar bears, Antarctica yacht charters introduce charter guests to a largely unspoiled terrain sprinkled with some of the most beautiful seascapes in the world.

Laden with alluring icebergs, sparkling glaciers, and impressive mounds of snowpack, heli-skiing is an incredible way to explore this highly rewarding yacht charter destination.

With the best visiting times being between December and February, charter guests looking to book a boat charter around Antarctica will have the opportunity to go whale watching at Gerlache Strait, witness jaw-dropping views at Deception Island in the caldera of an active volcano and the narrow waterway of the Lemaire Channel.

Patagonia

Presenting a stunning array of untouched peaks and heights ranging from 600 to 800 meters, the Patagonian Andes are an iconic choice for high-flying heli-skiing yacht charters. A true gem of a South America yacht charter, Patagonia allows charter guests to immerse themselves in a breathtaking panorama that will never be forgotten.

As a prime location for heli-skiing, the Patagonian Andes are best in October and November and test fearless charter guests to a range of open bowls, steep couloirs, and captivating mellow glacier runs. A playground that is like no other, private crewed yacht charters in the region can present nothing less than an exceptional yacht charter vacation for all levels of skiing experience.

Greenland

Simply breathtaking and awash with beautiful, gleaming ice formations wherever you look, Greenland is becoming increasingly popular with expedition yacht charters in the months of May and June thanks to its abundance of opportunities to try out unique activities and, of course, see the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Ilulissat Icefjord in person.

A truly captivating landscape to enjoy while heli-skiing, charter guests can embrace a diverse range of terrains that stretch from the highest peaks right down to the water's edge. Offering prime snow conditions, good snowpacks, and other activities like dog sledding, snowmobiling, and ice fishing, a Greenland yacht charter knows how to entertain throughout the day before charter guests return to the warm and indulgent interiors of their respective private yacht rental.

Diverting your eyes to the sky, Greenland is one of the few charter destinations that offers a hopeful chance to witness the captivating Northern Lights. Although a Northern Europe yacht charter is arguably one of the best ways to secure a viewing of nature's legendary light show, charter guests in Greenland still maintain a good chance to glimpse the display.

British Columbia

With prime visiting times spanning February through to April, British Colombia yacht charters offer glistening alpine glaciers and jaw-dropping fjords in a serene and largely untouched environment.

The beautiful fjords of Bella Coola keep charter guests engaged throughout their heli-skiing experience with a multitude of terrains to navigate including a burnt forest, natural glade skiing, and, of course, the gleaming glaciers.

Boasting enchanting backgrounds for heli-skiing and honeymoon yacht charters, the tranquil Canadian surroundings of Bella Coola provide an exceptional all-round experience for charter guests, with opportunities to see the Great Bear rainforest and its magnificent wildlife including grizzly bears, black-tailed deer, and birds of prey.

Embarking on such an extravagant voyage to the untouched corners of the world requires an expedition yacht charter with an equally impressive forte for withstanding unforgiving weather conditions and terrains.
