Boat rentals in Ormos Panagias

Renting a boat in Ormos Panagias: what to ask

Boat rentals in Ormos Panagias are run by a handful of local operators working out of Marina Lagonisi and Marina Latoura, the two small bases on this side of Halkidiki. The choice comes down to how you want to spend the day: driving a small boat yourself, joining a skippered motor yacht, or taking a private speedboat tour toward the Blue Lagoon and Diaporos Island.

Zephyrus Boat Rental is based in Ormos Panagias and says its boats can be used without a licence, pointing customers toward Diaporos and Vourvourou. Luxury Sport Cruise, at Marina Lagonisi, lists private cruises, self-drive boats and skippered yachts, with online booking and routes to the Blue Lagoon, Diaporos and Sithonia. Lux Sea Cruises, based in Latoura, runs private speedboat tours to the Blue Lagoon and Diaporos and describes itself as family-run with over 20 years in the boat trip industry. Halkidiki Yachts, at Marina Latoura, charters motor yachts; the operator says one yacht takes up to 10 people, and groups of up to 20 can charter both at a special price. Prices are not published here, so ask each operator directly.
