Explore a variety of available yacht rentals and find the perfect boat type that matches your preferences!
Boat Types
Sailboat Charter
Sailboats are the most popular choice in the world of yacht rental. A sailing yacht or a sailing boat is a single-hulled vessel propelled by the power of sails, i.e., by the power of wind. Choose between world's best known yacht manufacturers, such as Bavaria, Dufour, Beneteau, Jeanneau etc.
Some key features that best describe sailing yachts:
- Great stability due to the keel and ballast
- Safety – capsizing is almost impossible
- Ideal for adrenalin lovers – the boat often heels over
- Economical choice when compared to catamarans of similar size
- More affordable mooring prices in comparison to catamarans

Catamaran Charter
A catamaran is a type of vessel with two hulls, also known as pontoons. There are two types of catamarans; the ones propelled by sails (sailing catamarans) and the ones propelled by an engine (power catamarans).
Due to the two-hull design, a catamaran is very stable and comfortable to sail, which makes the overall sailing experience enjoyable. Choose between brands such as Lagoon, Nautitech, Bali, Fountaine Pajot, Leopard, Aquila etc.
Some key features that best describe catamarans:
- Attractive design
- Its stability reduces seasickness
- Faster due to needle-like shaped hulls
- Spacious inside and deck space
- Have easy access to the water
- Smaller draft that allows sailing in shallow waters
- Easy to manoeuvre

Motor Yacht Charter
A motor yacht (motor boat) is powered by an engine which makes it more stable and faster. The motor yachts in our offer have great performances and achieve high speeds but are still easy to manoeuvre.
Choose from small motor boats to bigger-sized motor yachts. For those who want to experience true luxury, we suggest renting a superyacht. Some of the most popular brands are Beneteau, Cranchi, Atlantic, Sea Ray etc.
Some key features that best describe motor boats:
- Shallow draft – access closer to the shore
- Spacious and comfortable cabins
- Speed – in comparison to sailing yachts and catamarans
- Suitable for both experienced yachtsmen and novices as they are easier to handle
