Sunseeker Malta

Sunseeker is one of the best-known British names in luxury motor yachts, and Sunseeker Malta is its local office, found on The Quay at Portomaso Marina in St Julian's. For UK buyers who already know the brand, the Malta office offers a Mediterranean point of contact for viewing and buying a yacht, or for chartering one. It is listed in our directory of yacht brokers in Malta.

Portomaso is a modern marina beside the Portomaso tower, a short walk from the restaurants and nightlife of Paceville. The marina setting puts the bays of the north and the islands of Gozo and Comino within easy reach by sea. The area around the marina is full of cafes, bars and shops, so a viewing can easily be combined with lunch or an evening out, and the seafront promenade is a pleasant walk in cooler months. Allow time before and after an appointment to explore, since the marina is one of the liveliest corners of the island.

The Sunseeker range

The Malta site shows four families of yachts. The Performance range runs from 55 to 75 feet, the Yacht range from 55 to 100 feet and the Ocean range from 82 to 90 feet, while the Superyacht line stands at 134 feet. A range brochure is available for download, and enquiries about specific models can be sent through the form.

Choosing between ranges is largely a question of how you intend to use the boat: the shorter models suit day trips and the longer ones suit more time on board with guests, so size, crew and berthing are worth discussing early. A broker can talk through running costs, berthing and crew, topics our guide to relocating to Malta and the Malta tax guide for UK nationals touch on for owners who plan to base a yacht on the island.

Heritage, pre-owned yachts and charter

Sunseeker's story begins in 1969, when Robert Braithwaite started the engine of a small open-cockpit speedboat called the Hostess 17. The brand today stresses craft skills handed down through generations and close attention to detail. Its recent news includes a project in which students reinvent the company's luxury materials for a circular future.

The Malta site has sections for pre-owned yachts for sale and for finding a charter, so it is worth asking about both when you enquire. If you only want a day on the water, you could look at Adventure Cruises Malta, and if you are comparing brokers, 73 Marine is another yacht broker in the directory. Divers will find 7R Diving Malta close to the marina.

Visiting Portomaso Marina

British visitors can reach Malta on a flight from the UK, and St Julian's offers plenty of choice among the hotels in Sliema and St Julian's. The Malta weather guide shows which months suit sea trials and cruising, while the Blue Lagoon on Comino is a classic destination for a first trip on a yacht. The capital is a short drive away, and our Valletta guide covers its sights.

How to enquire

Before you enquire, it helps to settle a few practical points: how many guests you expect on board, whether you want to cruise locally or travel further, your budget including berthing and running costs, and whether a new build or a pre-owned yacht suits you better. Having dates in mind also helps if you want to see a boat or ask about a charter. The Malta office handles sales, valuations, service questions and events as well as general queries. Owners who already have a Sunseeker should contact the manufacturer's customer team about warranty and ownership support. For everything else, use the VisitMalta.co.uk enquiry form on this page and we will pass your message to Sunseeker Malta.
