in tenth place with a daily fee of 1,162 euros (around $1,376 USD).
The list, which is put together by Engel & Völkers Yachting, compiles the top 10 based on fees for a mooring berth for a 55-meter yacht during the high season of each location. In addition to the basic fee, leasing costs usually also involve additional fees for various services, such as electricity, water, and refueling.
