3 günlük tatilimizde 5 kişi rahat rahat konakladık. Hüseyin kaptan bölge hakkında çok bilgili isteklerimiz doğrultusunda rotayı belirlememize yardımcı oldu, müthiş koylar gezdik. Yemekler konusunda mutfakta kesinlikle çok başarılı, eli de çok lezzetli, çok az malzemeyle birçok ürün çıkartabiliyor, gerçekten tek kişilik dev kadro. İlk tekne tatili deneyimimiz olmasına rağmen çok eğlendik, en yakın zamanda tekrarlamak istiyoruz. Hüseyin Kaptana tekrardan her şey için teşekkür ederiz.

Çok güleryüzlü, yardımcı ve işini bilen bir ekip söz konusuydu. Errikos'un kişiliğinde tüm ekibe çok teşekkür ederiz. Sadece temiz ve pis su sistemi biraz karmaşıktı, kavrayana kadar biraz zaman geçti; belki teslim alırken ayrıntılı bilgi istemek yararlı olabilir. Motor performansı, yelkenler, dingi motoru gayet iyiydi. Sadece espri olarak yazıyorum:) havuzlukta sırt dayamak için yastık olsa süper olurdu:)))

Boat Rental: Your Gateway to Freedom on the Water

That unique sense of freedom the sea offers is no longer just a dream—it's within your reach. Once considered a luxury for the few, boat rental today is a widely accessible way to unwind from the stress of modern life, create unforgettable memories with loved ones, or bring serenity into your business retreats. Thanks to the growth of yacht charter services, stepping into the magical world of the open sea has never been easier.

More Than a Choice—Boat Rental Is an Experience

Every moment spent on a charter boat has the potential to become one of the most cherished memories of your life. Enjoying the serenity of the sea in your own private space offers a kind of peace city life can’t provide. Chartering a yacht isn’t just a vacation activity—it’s a soulful journey to recharge, disconnect, and rediscover yourself.

Whether you're planning a romantic escape, a peaceful family vacation, or an exciting adventure with friends, private yacht charter options cater to every budget and expectation. The sea is calling—just pick your course and begin the journey.

Types of Boat Rentals: There’s a Perfect Option for Everyone

Regardless of your boating experience, there’s a boat charter that suits your needs. Whether you want a fully serviced experience or prefer to captain your own route, here are your main options:

Private Boat Rental with Captain: Comfort & Confidence

If you're new to boating or just want to relax, a private boat rental with captain is the perfect choice. Let an experienced captain handle navigation and logistics while you enjoy scenic views, sun-soaked decks, and calm waters. This option offers maximum comfort and safety with zero stress.

Bareboat Rental: Plot Your Own Adventure

For those with a valid boating license and a spirit for adventure, a bareboat yacht charter offers total freedom. Sail at your own pace, anchor in secluded coves, and explore hidden gems. It’s ideal for sea lovers who crave independence and control over their journey.

Luxury Yacht Charter with Crew: Ultimate Elegance

Looking for a truly luxurious experience? A luxury yacht charter with a full crew—including a captain, chef, and service staff—will exceed your expectations. This is the ultimate way to indulge at sea while every detail is taken care of. Think of it as a five-star hotel on water.

What Kind of Boats Can You Rent?

There’s a wide variety of yachts for rent, each offering a unique experience. Choose the one that fits your style and group size:
Motor yachts: Fast, sleek, and stylish—great for covering long distances quickly while enjoying top-tier comfort.
Sailboats: For those who want to move with the wind and embrace the peaceful rhythm of the sea.
Catamarans: Spacious, stable, and ideal for families or groups, offering a floating home experience.
Gulets: Traditional wooden Turkish yachts, perfect for blue cruises with wide decks and relaxing vibes.
Speedboats: Ideal for day trips or water sports, offering thrill and adrenaline in short bursts.
RIBs/inflatables: Practical for short trips, fishing, or as support boats—lightweight and easy to maneuver.

Flexible Rental Durations to Fit Your Schedule

Whether it’s a brief escape or a full-fledged sea vacation, boat rentals can be tailored to your ideal time frame.

Day Boat Rental: The Perfect Mini Escape

Short on time? A day boat rental is great for birthdays, anniversaries, or just getting away from the city. Set sail in the morning, return by sunset—maximum relaxation, minimum planning.

Week-Long Yacht Charter: A True Sea Holiday

For a full experience, a week-long yacht charter lets you live like a true sailor. Spend seven days exploring hidden bays across the Aegean or Mediterranean, waking up in a new port each day.

Hourly Boat Hire: For Special Moments

If you're planning a quick celebration, photo shoot, or a romantic moment at sea, hourly boat hire gives you a taste of the ocean without committing to a full day.

Special Events on the Sea: Celebrate with Style

A private yacht charter isn't just for vacations—it’s also a stunning venue for life’s milestones:
Birthdays: Host a party with your loved ones surrounded by blue horizons.
Proposals: Ask the big question during a golden sunset on the open water.
Corporate events: Swap meeting rooms for sea breeze and boost team spirit.
Bachelor/Bachelorette parties: Celebrate freedom in the most adventurous way.
Anniversaries: Rekindle romance with a peaceful sail under the stars.

Turn your special moment into an unforgettable celebration with a private boat rental.

What You Should Know Before Renting a Boat

Planning ahead ensures a smooth yacht charter experience. Here’s what to keep in mind:

Required Documents

For bareboat rentals, a valid boating license is a must. Requirements vary based on the boat’s size and engine power. If you don’t have one, opt for a charter boat with captain instead.

Weather Planning

The sea is beautiful but unpredictable. Always check forecasts before and during your trip to ensure safe sailing.

What to Pack

Sunscreen and UV-protective clothing
Sunglasses and a hat
Personal medications
Water and snacks
Spare clothes
Seasickness remedies if needed

Yachts for rent can get fully booked during peak summer months. Reserve early to secure your ideal boat at the best rate.

Fuel Costs: Often not included in the base price. Make sure to confirm if it’s charged separately based on consumption.
