Renting a boat in Agia Pelagia, Crete: what to ask

Boat rentals in Agia Pelagia are run by a small number of operators working from the town's coast on Crete, and the practical differences between them come down to where they are based and what they actually offer. Blue Water Club Boat Rental - Agia Pelagia - Crete is a boat rental operator based in the town itself. Aqua Star Boat Rentals & Jet Ski works from the central beach, next to the lifeguard, and runs boat trips as well as rentals; it also appears under categories for jet ski and water sports equipment rental. A third option, Boat Rentals at Peninsula Hotel (Agia Pelagia), operates from the beach bar of the Peninsula Hotel and is open every day from 10:00 to 18:00.

None of the three publishes its fleet, routes or rates in the supplied information, so the sensible approach is to call or visit before booking. Ask each operator directly whether boats are skippered or self-drive, whether any boat can be used without a licence, and whether a captain or crew comes as standard. Prices are best requested from the business itself.
