Renting a boat may seem a lot more challenging than it actually is, thankfully Zante is one of the easiest and cheapest places to hire a boat for the day.
Hiring a Boat in Zante
To hire a boat, you don’t even need any previous boating experience or a boating licence. All you will need is one person in your group to be over 18. Most organisations will ask for some form of ID whether that be a passport or driving license as a deposit.
Affordable & Customisable
If you’re on a budget, don’t worry because most companies have boats for groups between 5-8 people so it helps to spread the cost out. If you're not on a budget there are options to hire bigger VIP boats. Within your group, you’re able to customise your route depending on what you want to do and how long you want to be on the water. As there are many boat rental companies in Zante, they will most likely have different prices and driving boundaries so it’s best to research beforehand.
Pre Drinking
Not only can you see a different side to Zante, you can use the time to pre-drink for the clubs later on. You can play your own tunes while you swim, drink, and enjoy the scenery. Remember that someone will have to be the designated driver so they won’t be unable to drink unless you hire a skipper.
Tips for Boat Rental in Zante
Book in advance, especially during peak season (June–August). Check for group size limits, rental policies, and included amenities. Compare options—self-drive boats vs. skippered boats. Look online and in person for different companies.
Hiring a boat is one of the best ways to explore Zante, it's a unique experience and highly recommended.
