Motorboat Rental in the Ionian Islands
The Ionian Islands are a group of islands located west of mainland Greece in the Ionian Sea. One of the fastest and easiest ways to move around these islands is with a motorboat rental. Not only will you be able to sail around at your own pace with or without a skipper, but you’ll also have the opportunity to discover gems only accessible by boat. For those who enjoy being adventurous and active, it is possible to add water toys, like water skies, and fishing gear to your boat rental with Nautal.
Sail around the top destinations in the Ionian Islands with your yacht charter and enjoy it with friends or family. Discover the extraordinary coastlines and beaches of the Ionian islands such as Corfu and Lefkas on your next vacation.
Where to sail in the Ionian Islands?
The Ionian Islands region is the perfect location for motor yacht charters thanks to the gentle “Maistros” winds. And in general, Greece is considered to be a sailing paradise for all kinds of sailors, from beginners to the most experienced.
One of the biggest perks of going on a private charter in the Ionian Islands is that you are free to choose where you go and how long you stay in each location. You’ll also be able to discover virgin bays and hidden gems that are only accessible by boat.
With so many places to go, planning cruise itineraries in Greece can sometimes feel a little bit overwhelming. To help you get started on planning yours, here are a few of our favorite places to sail to in Greece.
- Visit the island of Corfu, known for being one of the loveliest Greek islands. In Corfu, you can visit the Museum of Asian Art and explore the many shops and boutiques in town. There is also a 14th-century fortress, the Palaio Frourio, with a nearby lighthouse where you can view the fortress and sea in all their glory.
- Just off the southern coast of Corfu are the islands of Paxi and Antipaxi, two of the smallest islands in the Ionian Sea. These two islands are notorious for their beautiful beaches and crystal-clear water.
With your boat rental in the Ionian Islands, you’ll be able to access as many beaches as you like. Beaches like Myrtos Beach in Kefalonia are breathtaking, yet not as accessible by road. In Lefkas, Porto Katsiki Beach is a dream and in Corfu, there are plenty of beaches for spending the day in the sun, such as Ipsos Beach, Arillas Beach, and Barbati Beach.
How much does it cost to rent a motorboat?
The cost of a motorboat rental in Greece depends on several different factors such as the size and model of the boat, the duration of the rental, the size of the traveling party, and whether or not you choose to add other amenities. Add-ons such as paddleboards, fishing gear, and water sports equipment can come at an extra cost.
If you wish to hire a skipper, this may also come at an extra cost. To get a full overview of the rental price, make to get in contact with the boat owner.
