TOP 10 most luxurious mega yachts in the world

April 26th, 2021

Superyacht

As we all know, the world of luxury knows no bounds. Often, looking at the most luxurious yachts leaves us wondering or shaking our heads. First of all, we would like to define what kind of yachts we are talking about. A mega yacht or superyacht is a particularly large, ocean-going yacht with a luxurious interior.

 

Since these ships are exclusively and luxuriously equipped and thus correspondingly expensive, they serve “super-rich” for representation and pleasure purposes. As a basis for calculation, the rule of thumb is “at least 1 million US dollars per metre”.

With this in mind, enjoy the TOP 10 of the most extraordinary yachts in the world.

Lady Moura 210 million dollars

Built in 1990 for a Saudi Arabian businessman, this 105-metre yacht offers everything the luxurious heart desires.

The lettering of the yacht is made of 24-carat gold, onboard is a 20-metre dining table, a helicopter and a pool. The included private beach with palm trees, sand and sun loungers is another highlight of this gem.
