FAQs

What is the cost of a yacht hire?

The price of your yacht hire will vary depending on a range of factors such as the number of people on board, the seasonality, and the destination. Additionally, any extras such as a skipper, cleaning services, or water toys can increase the total. For example, the price of a yacht hire for 10 people in Cancun during the low season can be around £7,300 per week. However, a yacht for 12 people in Marbella during the high season can be around £36,000 per week. As you can see, prices vary greatly and no charter experience is the same. Therefore, we recommend you contact the boat owner to ensure that there are no hidden costs.

What does the cost of a yacht hire include and what additional fees can I expect to pay?

Typically, the price of your yacht hire comes at a base rate for the yacht and its taxes during the specific dates that you would like. In addition, some boat owners will require a deposit before the beginning of your rental for certain costs such as cleaning and fuel. Extra costs on your yacht hire may include mooring fees, cooking services, or water sports. Ultimately, we recommend that you contact the boat owner before your holiday for a breakdown of the costs so that there are no surprises.

Do I need a license to hire a yacht?

The majority of destinations require nautical experience or a boating license in order to sail a yacht. However, legislation can vary between regions and boat owners can also ask for a license regardless of this. Therefore, we recommend that if you do want to charter a yacht without a license that you confirm with the boat owner beforehand or use the “without license” filter on Nautal’s boat search.

If you do not have a boating license, do not worry as we have plenty of amazing boats that can be hired with a professional skipper. This means that you will not have to worry about meeting any legal requirements and can focus on relaxing while they handle all the sailing, docking, and anchoring of the yacht.
