Celebrated my 30th birthday with 9 friends on their boat. Penny was great and everything was very well organized. Despite the weather not being clear blue skies, the crew went out of their way to find a location with better weather. They were incredibly flexible with timings, locations and stops. The boat was spacious with plenty areas of shade when required. Highly recommend.
First of all: This is a truly recommended experience. Michalis helped us really good. He isn't there to take your money. He planned the trip very carefully with the weather in mind. The first days we had in mind were very windy, so he suggested to reschedule our reservation. The boat was super clean. The instructions were very clear and he had the right tools and information for us to make our experience safe and fun! He also provided us with a cool box full of drinks. When we picked him up for driving back he gave us a nice drive back to the berth. Even after our trip with the boat he was willing to provide us with places to visit, things to do and more! I guess you can call him the friend of the island ;). If we ever come back here, we will definitely contact him again for another trip with one of his boats. It's really worth your money. He definitely deserves more than 5 stars!

Boat rentals in Greece are very common, so you can find a wide variety of boats. In Crete, you can find different boats such as motorboats, catamarans, and sailboats. The price for renting a boat in Skiathos starts from only 150 euros during the low season. Please note that prices increase during the high season due to the high demand for boats.
In Greece, a license is required depending on the type of boat you charter. For a yacht, you must have a valid license and a CV showing that you have previous sailing experience. On the other hand, if you want to rent a motorboat, you will be required to have a license only if the motor is 30 hp or more.
If you don't have a license, don't worry, you can still enjoy the sailing experience. You can rent a bareboat which does not require a license or you can choose any boat from the catalogue but with a captain.
