The Atlas United Shipyards of Perama S.A. is a strategic Mediterranean refit destination built exclusively for superyachts and megayachts that demand scale, precision and discretion.
Located in Perama, at the gateway to the Eastern Mediterranean, ATLAS offers operational advantage for yachts cruising between the French Riviera, Italy, Croatia, Turkey and the Middle East — reducing repositioning time, fuel consumption and scheduling risk.
At the core of its infrastructure stands one of the world’s most powerful retractable heavy-lift cranes, with a lifting capacity of 1,200 tons, capable of handling yachts up to 75 meters with millimetric precision. Combined with a 15-meter wide pit, the yard ensures controlled docking, structural stability and safe execution of major refit and mechanical works.

With over 5,000 successful hauling and launching operations and internationally awarded refit experience, ATLAS operates as an asset-protection partner rather than a conventional yard.
For a yacht owner, ATLAS represents more than a refit facility.
It is a heavy-lift capable, technically integrated, financially solid shipyard where performance, safety and long-term asset value are engineered — not assumed.
