Rent a boat with or without a skipper

Many of our boat charters in Turks and Caicos Islands come with the option of sailing with a skipper and/or crew. Although this may come at an extra cost, having a skipper on board can, no doubt, provide you with an even more enjoyable experience! Your skipper can adapt the sailing route so that your voyage best suits the desires of you and the rest of your party.

Additionally, setting sail with a skipper will make your voyage even more comfortable! The skipper will take care of all the technical aspects of sailing, so all you need to do is sit back and relax.

If you would like to take charge of your boat charter in Turks and Caicos Islands, then bareboat charters are the way to go. Enjoy a bareboat charter if you have a license and set sail at your own pace. You need a valid boating license to enjoy a boat this way so check with the boat owner beforehand to see that your license is valid.

When is the best time of year to rent a boat?

During the high season in Turks and Caicos Islands, from December to April, the region experiences delightful weather, with average temperatures in the mid to high 70s°F. This period is the ideal time to visit and rent a boat, as you can bask in the warm sunshine and enjoy the turquoise waters of the Caribbean.

In the months just outside of the high season, specifically May and November, average temperatures in Turks and Caicos range from the low 70s°F to mid-80s°F. The weather during these months remains pleasant, providing comfortable conditions for boating activities while avoiding the peak tourist crowds of the high season.

What type of boat is best for a Turks and Caicos Islands boat charter?

Before choosing the right vessel for your boat rental in Turks and Caicos Islands, you first have to think about the duration of your holiday. If you’re only going to sail for a few days, it is best to opt for a daily charter such as a motorboat or a RIB. With the speed of these vessels, you’ll be able to see everything on your wish list in no time. If you’re planning a longer charter of a week or more you should choose a vessel that includes amenities you’ll need during your stay. Catamarans and yachts have the space and accommodations on board to ensure a comfortable stay on the water. For a more luxurious holiday, you might consider a gulet, and for an authentic sailing experience a sailboat.

If you’re unsure about whether or not a vessel suits your needs, feel free to contact the boat owners to get a better sense of what is included on board. With our large fleet, you’ll have no problem finding the perfect boat for your Turks and Caicos Islands boat charter!
