Chanel Iman on Ecstasea

American model Chanel Iman has enjoyed some seriously chic superyacht vacations in recent years and almost all of them were on board the 89.95 metre Feadship Ecstasea. She was most recently spotted on board a superyacht during the Cannes Film Festival but it is Iman’s annual New Year’s trip to Dubai which wins her a spot on our list.

Reality TV stars Khloe Kardashian and Kendall Jenner - a  model fond of superyacht vacations - shared this snap while taking a  luxury yacht cruise in St Barts in August. The half-sisters are holidaying on the  Caribbean island with their large family and have been demonstrating their thrill seeking sides by riding jet-skis and giving flyboarding a try.

Actress Lindsay Lohan soaks up the last remaining Mediterranean rays as she enjoys a  luxury yacht cruise in St. Tropez in August. The star took to Instagram to show off the  superyacht's pool and hot tub, as well as making full use of its bespoke outdoor yacht gym equipment. This snap is from Lohan's second superyacht vacation of 2015, having already enjoyed a  luxury yacht charter in Greece in July.

Want to throw a birthday party worthy of Beyoncé? Then you’ll be needing the impressive 65 metre Heesen yacht Galactica Star. The singer was joined by her husband Jay-Z and daughter Blue Ivy for a Mediterranean superyacht charter in September where they were spotted visiting popular yachting hotspots including Sardinia, Naples and the French Riviera.

Elle Macpherson enjoyed not one but two luxury yacht vacations in 2015. The model was first spotted on a superyacht in Monaco on board the 55.5 metre Feadship Madsummer with her husband Jeff Soffer in July before posting a snap of her family enjoying a Thanksgiving get together on board a luxury yacht in November.

Reality TV star Kylie Jenner joined her sister Kendall on a yacht in Australia in November as the pair prepared to launch their new fashion range Down Under. Kendall became another model spotted on a superyacht as the pair enjoyed a spot of sunbathing while cruising along the Parramatta River in Sydney.

Singer Marc Anthony - best known as the ex-husband of Jennifer Lopez - demonstrated that you can mix work and pleasure when he shared this snap from a superyacht photoshoot on Instagram. The shoot took place on board the 36.5 metre Double Shot which was docked in Biscayne Bay ahead of the  Art Basel Miami Beach fair in December.

Australian model Ashley Hart and television presenter Sonia Kruger hopped on to one of Sydney's  perfect party yachts to celebrate the close of Oprah Winfrey's tour of Australia in December. The pair enjoyed time sailing around Sydney harbour and, despite the clouds, proved that you don't need perfect weather to enjoy spending time on a yacht.

Husband and wife team Jennifer Hawkins and Jake Wall became the latest  models spotted on superyachts as they posed aboard a luxury vessel to launch their new tequila range, Sesión Premium Tequila, in December. The Australian beauty queen and former Miss Universe then joined her husband in hosting a star-studded bash at the riverside location in Sydney.

Despite clearly enjoying his  luxury yacht charter in Spain while it was happening, British singer Ed Sheeran revealed that he may have had a little too much fun and required surgery after bursting his ear drum while jumping off the yacht. Sheeran chartered the luxury yacht to celebrate the birthday of three friends and says, despite the incident, he enjoyed himself so much he would definitely spend time on a yacht again.

However, Sheeran is not the first star to fall foul of this popular yachting pastime. Footballer Memphis Depay, one of many  sports stars spotted on luxury yacht vacations, posted a video showing that his diving skills left much to be desired while on holiday this summer.
