Bavaria 56
Bavaria Cruiser 56 — Farr Yacht Design
The art of slowing down at sea
The Bavaria 56 Cruiser is the flagship of Bavaria Yachts — nearly 17 meters of German engineering drawn by the legendary Farr Yacht Design. With 145 m² of sail area, five spacious cabins, and a hull that performs beautifully in both light and strong winds, she’s the most refined way to experience South Sardinia’s coastline. No engine noise, no rush — just the sound of wind and water.
Set sail from the coast of Chia as the afternoon light turns golden. Glide past Capo Spartivento with its historic lighthouse, watch the cliffs of Tuerredda glow in the sunset, and return under a sky painted in amber and pink. With a professional captain at the helm, all you need to do is pour a glass of wine and let the sea tell its story.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need sailing experience to charter the Bavaria 56?
Not at all. The Bavaria 56 always comes with a professional captain who handles all sailing, navigation, and anchoring. You don’t need any license or experience — just sit back and enjoy the ride.
How many guests can sail on the Bavaria 56?
The Bavaria 56 accommodates up to 12 guests for day charters. With 5 cabins and 3 bathrooms, there’s plenty of space for everyone to relax both on deck and below.
What is a sunset sailing charter like?
You board in the late afternoon from the coast near Chia. The captain sets sail along the South Sardinia coast — past Capo Spartivento lighthouse, the cliffs of Tuerredda, or along the open sea. As the sun dips toward the horizon, you’re on deck with a glass of wine, wrapped in golden light and silence. It’s the most romantic way to experience Sardinia.
Can I bring food and drinks on board?
Absolutely. The Bavaria 56 has a fully equipped galley. Many guests bring aperitivo, cheese boards, and local wines for the sunset. We can also help arrange catering if you’d like a more complete dining experience on board.
What’s the difference between the Bavaria 56 and the motor yachts?
The Bavaria 56 is a pure sailing experience — wind-powered, quiet, and contemplative. Motor yachts like the Nautilix and Mirage 44 are about speed and reaching distant destinations quickly. Choose the Bavaria if you want to disconnect from the noise, feel the wind, and experience the sea at its most authentic.
Is the Bavaria 56 suitable for families with children?
Yes — the Bavaria 56 is one of the safest vessels in our fleet. High guardrails, a spacious cockpit, and a stable 17-meter hull make it very family-friendly. Children love watching the sails fill and helping the captain steer. Life jackets for all sizes are provided.
